How do I join the practice?
New Patients
If you are a new patient wishing to register with us please see the "practice area" tab for our boundary map. It is recommended that you live within the area highlighted to register with us.
In order to register with the practice please complete the necessary 3 forms available below or collect from reception:
You will be asked to provide 1 form of photographic ID and proof of address, although these are not mandatory. Completed applications take 7 days to process. Access to practice services can be made after this time.
Existing patients moving out of area
If you are an existing patient who moves out of our practice area you will need to register with another GP Surgery. If you have any questions regarding this please do not hesitate to contact our Office Manager Gillian Jamieson.
Temporary Residents
If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with the practice. To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
