New Patients
Register as New Patient
We are using a new online service called Register with a GP surgery that makes it easy to register with this GP surgery.
Just click on the link and fill in this quick online form to start the process. You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number.
The service is designed and run by the NHS, so your personal information is safe. It cuts our administrative workload and makes it easier for you to register.
Surgery Catchment Area
We can only accept new patients who live INSIDE our boundaries. Please click here to enter your postcode and check if you live within our catchment area. If you move to an address that falls outside of our boundary you will need to register with another practice. In order to be fair and equitable we are unable to make exceptions on an individual patient basis.
Practice Boundary
Named Doctor
You may be aware that all practices are required to provide all their patients with a named GP who will have overall responsibility for the care and support that their surgery provides to them.
For all our patients, Dr Lavanya Subbiah will be their named GP.
Dr Subbiah will have overall responsibility for the care and support our surgery provides to you. This does not prevent you from seeing any GP in the practice as you currently do.
Temporary Patient Registrations
If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.
To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
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.

Disabled Patient Facilities
There is a ramp from outside footpath level to the front door. If you cannot use stairs please advise the receptionist on booking your appointment or arrival and we shall ensure you are seen in a ground floor surgery.
The practice also has a hearing loop.
