New Patient Registration

New Patients

The High Street Practice welcomes all patients regardless of disability or medical condition, age, appearance, race, gender, social class, religion or sexual orientation.

All patients who wish to register with the practice are required to fill out a registration card, also known as a GMS1 form and provide proof of identity and address. Acceptable forms of identification include your passport, EU identity card or a birth certificate. For proof of address we will need to see a recent utility bill, rental contract, bank statement or house deed. For children under 16 please bring their red book or a list of immunizations that they have received to date.

To help us locate your medical records it is important that you bring details of your previous GP if you have registered before with a doctor in the UK . Do bring your old medical card if you have it or your NHS number if you know it. The more details that you are able to provide means that we are more likely to have your records available for your first appointment.

If you currently are taking any repeat medication please bring a copy of the prescription or the medication with you when you register.

Pre-Registration with the practice

If you wish to pre-register click on the link below to open the form. When you have completed all of the details, click on the "Send" button to mail your form to us. When you visit the surgery for the first time you will be asked to sign the form to confirm that the details are correct.

Pre-registration Form (GMS1 form)

When you register you will also be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire. This is because it can take a considerable time for us to receive your medical records. There is an online version of this file too, which you may fill out and send to us. When you come to the surgery you will be asked to sign this form to confirm that the details are correct. The more detail that you can give allows us to provide you with the best possible care right from the start.

Note that by sending the form you will be transmitting information about your self across the Internet and although every effort is made to keep this information secure, no guarantee can be offered in this respect.
