Registering with the surgery

To register with the surgery:

When you register, it’s helpful to have your NHS number. You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.

All patients are given a named GP, however patients have a right to express a preference as to which doctor they wish to see and we will endeavour to comply with your preference. It will, of course, depend on the availability of the doctor and the urgency of the appointment.

All newly registered patients are invited to attend the practice for a consultation with a doctor within the first six months of registering.
