Registering with the surgery
Step 1 – check whether you live within our practice area.
Step 2 – come in to one of our surgeries and one of our receptionists will gladly help you through registration or you can register online.
Step 3 – once you have registered with the Phoenix Health Group. Please be aware that it will take up to 6 weeks to allow for your medical records to arrive from your previous doctor.
To register with the surgery:
- fill out a new patient registration (adults) form online
- fill out a new patient registration (children) form online
- fill out a new patient registration (RAU students) form online
When you register, it’s helpful to have your NHS number. You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.
Temporary residents
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.
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.
