First bring along your old medical card to the Surgery. Do not worry if you cannot find it as the Health Authority will send you a new one once you have registered with us.
You will be given a Registration Form (GMS1) to complete. Please ask a receptionist if you need assistance. You will be given a Practice Leaflet which tells you about us and gives telephone numbers, opening times etc. You will also be asked to complete a Health Questionnaire.
The Receptionist will then book you an appointment with our Health Care Assistant for a New Patient Health Check. You will be given a urine sample bottle and asked to bring a fresh urine sample for the appointment.
Please tell us about any regular medication you take. It is very helpful if you bring in a Repeat Prescription print-out from your previous Surgery. You will need to see one of the GPs before any repeat prescriptions can be issued, so we will try to book you an appointment with a GP after seeing the Health Care Assistant.
Once the registration process is complete, we can apply to your old Surgery for the medical records.
