How to Register
We actively welcome new patients to our Practice. You can register at reception by using a registration form and supplying us with proof of identity and address. All new patients will also be asked to complete a lifestyle questionnaire and are advised to book an appointment with the practice nurse or HCA for a health check within 28 days of registering.
The health check gives us the opportunity to review how we can best meet your health needs and also ensures you will have access to our full range of services.Failure to book and attend the Health check screening may mean that you cannot access a GP.
Acceptance on to the list is as at the discretion of the Doctor and we will ask you for proof of identity. (Please refer to our registration policy below and why we ask for this). Please note that your medical records may take several weeks to arrive at the Practice.
There are a number of reasons why you may not be able to register with your chosen GP, for example you may live too far away. If this is the case simply choose another GP in your local area.
Please note that if you were previously registered with a Doctor outside the UK then the Practice will not have access to your medical notes. All patients who register from abroad should contact their previous Doctor to obtain copies of their notes.
Allocated Named GP
You may be aware that all practices are required to provide their patients with a named GP who will have overall responsibility for the care and support that our surgery provides to them.
The allocated named GP will have overall responsibility for the care and support that our surgery provides to you. This does not prevent you from seeing any GP in the practice as you currently do.
Patients have been allocated their named GP in the following way*:
Patients with surnames beginning with the letter:
- A to G will have Dr Ramachandra as their named GP
Patients with surnames beginning with the letter:
- H to Q will have Dr Gupta as their named GP
Patients with surnames beginning with the letter:
- R to Z will have Dr Hu as their named GP
