New Patient Forms
We are pleased to welcome new patients moving into our catchment area. Patients wishing to register will:
- Need to complete an NHS registration form;
- Be invited to attend a registration medical with the nurse or health care assistant and bring a specimen of urine. This includes all children over 4/5 years, ie who have started school;
- Need to provide proof of identity, ie a medical card, passport.
The consultation will last approximately 20/30 minutes.
More Information
Please be aware that new medical cards are no longer issued automatically, but patients may request by telephoning Hampshire and Isle of Wight Patient and Practitioner Services Agency on 01962 853361.
Since 1 April 2004, patients have been required to register with the practice and not a particular GP. However, all patients will be asked when registering whether they wish to nominate a preferred General Practitioner. For example, some women may wish to see a female GP. An alternative preference may also be given.
The practice reserves the right to refuse to accept a patient, for example:
- Where the personal safety of practice staff may be compromised;
- Where a patient does not turn up for the new registration check with nurse and fails to contact the practice within 48 hours of the appointment.
