Register as a New Patient

If you are living within the Practice boundary we would be happy to provide you with medical services.

To register, complete the appropriate section of your medical card, or complete a registration form obtained from our reception desk, or by clicking on the link below, then print off, complete, and bring with you when you come to register. You will also need to complete the relevant health questionnaire, also linked at the bottom of the page. Please note that we can no longer accept any forms sent to us through the mail as we need to see some form of identification in person before you can be registered.

Please complete all the sections in the registration forms. Unfortunately we are unable to process incomplete forms, and this may delay your registration. Your application will be processed within 24 or 48 hours depending on when we receive it.

As from the 14th of June 2010 all patients eligible to receive NHS treatment must provide the following identification to enable registration/re-registration.

NHS Entitled British Citizens (One Only)

NHS GP4 Medical Card (White)

Passport

If you are an overseas visitor seeking health care in Scotland, Health Rights Information Scotland have produced several factsheets with information about the NHS Services you can expect to receive:

Health care for people coming to Scotland to work
Health care for people coming to Scotland to study
Health care for asylum seekers and refugees in Scotland
Heath care in Scotland for former UK residents now working abroad
Health care in Scotland for UK passport holders living abroad
Health care for UK pensioners visiting Scotland
Health care in Scotland for holidaymakers from overseas

Before you are fully registered with the Practice, we ask that you complete a New Patient Health Questionnaire. Your medical record often takes a considerable time to arrive from your previous doctor and this gives us the opportunity of recording some basic information about you and offering you any immediate care you may need.

You will be registered with the Practice rather than a specific doctor, but you have a right to ask to see a particular doctor, if you wish. If you have a requirement for a prescription then you should arrange an appointment with a doctor of your choice to discuss your ongoing care.

We do not exclude patients from the Practice on grounds of race, sexuality, religion, social class, age, disability or medical condition.
