Patients are registered with the practice, not individual doctors. However, in order to ensure continuity of care, the partnership operates a personal list system. This means that you will be appointed a 'usual doctor' and this is who you will usually see. However, if your problem is urgent you may be offered an appointment with another doctor.

We hope that having one doctor responsible for your health improves the quality of care you receive. If you have a preference for a particular doctor, you may like to express this in writing on registering. Alternatively, you may request a specific doctor for certain aspects of your care. Requests of this nature will always be considered but may not always be appropriate.

You will be asked to complete a registration form and a new patient health questionnaire. We will endeavour to register you as soon as possible. It is helpful if you do not delay your registration until you need to see a doctor urgently, as it usually takes two working days to register a patient.
