New Patient Registration

Anyone registering will be asked to complete a questionnaire and attend a new patient medical. Please give as much accurate information as possible as it will help us to care for you whilst we wait for your full medical records to come through.

Should you take regular medication we will need you to bring in a copy of your previous repeat list as soon as possible to ensure you are able to take your medication continuously.

If you change to a new practice, we will transfer your medical records to Primary Care Support England within one week or within 24 hours if they are urgently required. Primary Care Support England will then forward your records to your new doctor.

Non-English Speakers

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.

Pre-registration with the practice

If you wish to pre-register click on the link below to open the form. When you have completed all of the details, click on the "Send" button to mail your form to us. You will need to call in at the surgery to sign this form  to confirm that the details are correct. We also require two forms of identification (1) to include a photo (e.g. passport) and (2) to include your address (e.g. utility bill) which you should also bring with you.  Please note it takes 24 hours to process your registration.

Pre-registration Form

When you register you will also be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire. This is because it can take a considerable time for us to receive your medical records. There is an online version of this file too, which you may fill out and send to us. When you come to the surgery you will be asked to sign this form to confirm that the details are correct.

Online medical questionnaire for new patients

Note that by sending the form you will be transmitting information about your self across the Internet and although every effort is made to keep this information secure, no guarantee can be offered in this respect.

Alternatively you may print off a registration form, fill it out and bring it in with you on your first visit to the practice. Please note the requirements for signing this form and for identification.

Registration Form

Temporary Residency should be for a maximum of three months. In order to deal with long term care or medication it is better for you to register permanently in order that we can obtain your medical records.

We are happy to see friends or relatives staying with you should they become unwell.  They will need to ensure they allow 15 minutes prior to the appointment to complete a temporary resident form and set them up on the computer system.  Without this the doctor will be unable to see them.

If you change to a new practice, we will transfer your medical records to the correct Patient Services Department in either Nottinghamshire or Lincolnshire within one week, or within 24 hours if they are urgently required.  The Health Authority will then forward your records to your new doctor.
