Registering with the Practice

In order to receive care from a surgery when you want it (rather than in an emergency) you must register with a Practice. To register with us please ask reception for our registration forms. The receptionist will hand you two forms: Family doctor services registration form (GMS1Form), and a Patient Questionnaire

You will need to produce proof of your current address e.g. telephone, gas or electricity bill addressed to you, and some form of photo ID e.g. driving licence or passport. Simply complete the forms and return them to reception and we will arrange for a registration appointment.

Non-UK residents/students studying in the UK for less than 3 months

Non-UK residents or students studying in the UK for less than 3 months are welcome to register as a temporary resident and book an appointment with our doctors and nurses. A fee will apply if you are not entitled to NHS treatment. Please ensure that you bring your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) with you to each appointment.   

Please specify to reception if you wish to register as a temporary resident as the forms you need to complete are slightly different. Once you have registered with us, Thames Valley Primary Care Agency will send us your medical records from your previous GP. Children under 16 need to be registered by their parents.
