Register at St Peters Surgery
We are using a new online service called Register with a GP surgery that makes it easy to register with this GP surgery. Just 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. Paper registration forms are still available from reception if you prefer to register this way.
Temporary Registration
If you fall ill while away from home, or if you are not registered with a GP practice but you need to be seen, you can still contact us to ask for treatment. You can receive emergency treatment for up to 14 days. After that you will have to register either as a temporary resident or permanent patient. St Peters Surgery does not have to accept you as a temporary resident although we do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment.
Consider calling NHS 111 if you urgently need medical help or advice but it's not a life-threatening situation. You can also call NHS 111 if you're not sure which NHS service you need.
Registration as a temporary resident allows you to be taken on to our practice’s list for up to three months. If you are registered with another practice but are away from your home area, you can register temporarily with a practice near where you are currently staying and still remain a patient of your registered practice. You cannot register as a temporary resident if you are already signed up with another local practice, although you can consider signing up with us as a permanent patient.
Please try to have the following information available when you attend your appointment for the first time:
- Contact details of your registered or previous practice
- Details of your ongoing medical problems
- Details of medical problems you have suffered in the past
- The name and dose of any medicines that you are currently taking
To register at St peters Surgery as a temporary resident please come into the surgery to complete the registration form.
