Total Triage System

Since Wednesday 10 January 2024, we are operating a total triage system, where every request for a GP appointment is triaged by our GP team. To request a doctors appointment we are asking all our patients to use an online form where possible. If you find it difficult to use a computer or a smartphone, you can telephone our reception on 020 8669 6186 or attend in person and our receptionists will fill out the form on your behalf. Our reception staff are not able to book an appointment with a GP directly.

Register with this Practice

To register with the surgery

  • fill out an online registration form or download and complete the forms
  • visit reception during surgery hours and collect a paper registration form
  • all new patients will be asked to provide proof of address dated within the last 3 months and this can be uploaded when the form
  • please be advised that this registration process can take up to 2 weeks to fully process. If you are prescribed regular medication you should ensure you have a sufficient supply from your previous practice.

When registering children

  • When registering children under 16 years of age these must be registered at the same address as at least one person with parental responsibility or legal guardianship. As well as proof of address registrations for children will also need to upload a copy of the child’s birth certificate.

Catchment area

We are happy to accept new patients who are ordinarily resident in the UK and living within our practice boundary.

See if you live within our practice boundary by using the interactive map and postcode checker.

Once registered those over the age of 18 years are eligible for a new patient health check if you wish to book one with our Healthcare Assistant.

You will be assigned to a doctor who will be your Named Accountable GP. 

You will be added to the practice list, not an individual doctor. You can ask to be seen by any of the doctors in the surgery but it will not always be possible to see the doctor of your choice on a particular day or time.

Your NHS number is a 10 digit number, like 485 777 3456. You do not need to know your NHS number to use NHS services, but it can be useful to have it.

When you register, it’s helpful to have your NHS number. You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.

Your medical records remain with your registered GP but we will provide you with full medical care while you are in the area. If you leave the UK for a period of more than three months the doctor is no longer responsible for your medical care and may not provide repeat medication in your absence.

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.
