Registration Medical

We invite all our new patients who are new in the country to see one of our practice nurses or our health care assistant. This appointment enables us to collect medical information before your medical records arrive. It is also the start of screening for other medical problems. Normally, you will need to complete a registration medical before seeing one of our GPs.

FOR NEW BABIES PLEASE NOTE THAT NO CHILD UNDER 16 YEARS OLD WILL BE REGISTERED WITHOUT A LEGAL GUARDIAN ALSO REGISTERING AT THE PRACTICE. ONE OR BOTH PARENTS SHOULD REGISTER TOO OR THIS WILL BE REJECTED

MEDICATION AND REPEAT REQUESTS

Please note that while you are registering with us, your medication may be reset or not sent down the links to us in enough time and we cannot see what you have on your list of repeat drugs. If you need to order your medications simply send us an email ([email protected]) and we will process the medication for you within 2 working days (48 hours)
