Alternatively, you can register by completing a form available from reception.

You will need to complete this by hand & ensure you sign the form and bring it to the surgery with 1 form of photographic ID (e.g. Passport, driving license etc) and 1 form of proof of address dated within the last 3 months (e.g. Utility bill, bank statement etc) to support your application.

Although you will be officially registered with one doctor you may see the doctor of your choice. If you wish to see a particular doctor for some or all medical conditions please let the patient co-ordinator know and she will note this in your medical records.
