How to register

Anyone in England can register with a GP surgery.
You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number.

We have an open list and welcome requests for registration from patients living in or moving to the practice area.

Please be advised we are only accepting patients with an M26 postcode. If your postcode is different to this then please locate a GP practice in your area.

Please allow up to 10 working days for all registrations to be complete.

Thank you.

Temporary Registration

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.
