To register you can register online or you can visit the surgery with the following information:

  • 1 x Photo identification (eg Passport or Driving Licence)
  • 1 x Utility bill or bank statement sent to your current address, which you have received within the last three months.

New Registrations Health Check

You will be asked to make an appointment with the Health Care Assistant who will ask you one or two details about your past health and present lifestyle. This will benefit both the practice and you as it can take some time for your notes to be received from your former GP.

How to Register your New Baby

You need to register your new baby at the practice as soon as possible. Therefore, please download and complete a General Medical Services (GMS1) Registration Form and send it to your surgery. Please ensure you provide your baby’s NHS Number which will be detailed in their Red Book. Once we have received the form, we will register your baby as a patient at this Practice.

The Practice will send you an appointment for a mother and baby post-natal check. This is a 50-minute appointment, 30 minutes for the baby check and 20 minutes for the post-natal. Your baby’s course of routine immunisations will start at 8 weeks and will be given at this appointment. Please remember to bring the red book. If you cannot make this appointment, you must notify reception as soon as possible. Please be advised that if you do need to cancel, the next available appointment may be anything up to 4 weeks after that date.
