Monday – Friday 11.00am-12.00 noon

Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 2.00pm – 3.00pm (please note we are closed Wednesday pm)

The doctors welcome new patients who live within our practice area. Please check with reception to see if your address falls within our catchment area. You are asked to bring proof of address (Tenancy agreement, council tax bill, utility bill or bank statement) your NHS number and passport or photo ID. These documents are not a mandatory requirement and you will not be refused registration if you cannot produce them. If you have any difficulties in providing documents asked for , our friendly practice manager  will ring and assist you to facilitate registration. Our aim is to make sure that the registration process is smooth and stress-free for the patient.

Your registration status with us will depend on whether you are a visitor, staying temporarily in the area or are a permanent resident.

As it often takes sometime for records to be forwarded from your former practice all newly registered patients will be asked to complete a health questionnaire and are offered a new patient health check with the nurse.

 Please contact reception for further information

New patients are required to bring  the following  documents to the surgery and apply  in person (unless housebound).

  1. Fully completed  and signed  GMS1 (Note: If you wish to join the NHS  organ donor  register, please fill in the appropriate section)
  2. Fully completed and signed  New Patient questionnaire

 Please fill in  a separate  New patient Health Questionnaire For Children  for each child.

In order to speed up the submission process , we request you to make sure all sections are fully completed. We will retain both forms.

3. A photo ID (normally Passport or driving licence) .Please submit  NHS card ,if available.

4. Proof of address (  Utility bill )

Please note- For children under 5 yrs , we will require the red book with fully completed form for children. The red books will be returned by the nurse during registration medical.

Once an application is submitted , we aim to approve and make the appointment to see nurse for registration medical check up within 2 weeks. Please tell receptionist,  if there is a need to see the doctor sooner. 

Once you are  fully registered with the practice , you will be automatically  sent  a letter from NHSE confirming registration with practice.

If we are unable to accept your application , we will write to you within 2 weeks giving you the reasons.

SICKNESS CERTIFICATES

You do not need an NHS sick certificate until you have been off work for one week. You will usually need to see your doctor to obtain one after this.

TEST RESULTS

You may not always need to see your doctor for the results of your tests. If you are asked to phone, please phone 01895 233881 after 12pm and explain to the receptionist the nature of the test and the result you need. Please note-We never give pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases(STD) screening results over the phone. You have to see the nurse to discuss those results.

 Your NHS Number, Keep it Safe.

Every person registered with the NHS in England and Wales has their own unique NHS Number. It is made up of 10 digits for example 123 456 7890.

Everyone needs to use the NHS Number to identify you correctly. It is an important step towards improving the safety of your healthcare.

Always bring your NHS number with you to all appointments or quote it if you need to telephone the practice for any enquires. This will allow staff to check that they have the right patient details by checking this against your NHS number.

To improve safety always check your NHS Number on correspondence the NHS sends to you.

Ways of finding out your NHS Number

If you do not know your NHS number, contact your GP or CCG. You may be asked for proof of identity, for example a passport or other form of identity this is to protect your privacy.

Patient Relations

We will do our best to help you to resolve any concerns you may have about the care you received.

If you have a concern or there is a problem, the best way to get it resolved is usually to tell someone there and then. In Surgery, talk to the Doctor, nurse or receptionist on duty. If you want to talk to a senior manager or to someone who has not been directly involved in your care and treatment, we can usually arrange this during office hours.If you wish to make a formal complaint you can telephone or write to:  Mrs Yvonne Blowfield , Practice manager
