New Patients

Register as a New Patient

The doctors welcomes new patients who live within our practice area.

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 forms are still available if you need one.

Contact our reception team.

Zero Tolerance

We strongly support the NHS policy on zeroe tolerance. Anyone attending the practice who abuses the GPs, staff or other patients be it verbally, physically or in any threatening manner whatsoever, will risk removal from the practice list. In extreme cases we may summon the police to remove offenders from the practice premesis.

This practice operates a ZERO TOLERANCE approach towards violence and abuse of staff and property.

The following are examples of behaviour which are not acceptable:

  • Violence towards staff, patients or visitors
  • Threats or threatening behaviour
  • Excessive noise eg loud or intrusive conversation or shouting
  • Racist or sexist behaviour or language
  • Malicious allegations relating to members of staff, patients or visitors
  • Abusing alcohol or drugs on the premesis
  • Drug dealing
  • Willful damage to surgery property
  • Theft

New patients registering will be asked to sign a zero tolerance form.

By registering at this practice, you agree to behave appropriately and understand that by performing any of the above you will be removed from the practice list, and details of the incident will be passed on to the Kent & Medway ICB.

Temporary Patient Registrations

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.

Non-English Speakers

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.
