Because of coronavirus, try to avoid going into a GP surgery to register.

You can:

  • check the GP surgery website to see if you can register online http://NHSGP.net
  • call or email the GP surgery and ask to be registered as a patient

If you need help to fill in forms or you are not able to register online, call the GP surgery and let them know.

Can a GP surgery refuse to register me?

A GP surgery can refuse to register you because:

  • they are not taking any new patients
  • you live outside the practice boundary and they are not accepting patients from out of their area
  • you have been removed from that GP surgery register before
  • it’s a long way from your home and you need extra care, for example home visits
