Out of Area Registration

From 1st January 2015 we will be able to accept new patients from any address, for example, you may work near the Health Centre but live in Newcastle. There are conditions you must agree to before we accept you as an Out of Area registration.

If your address is within our boundary you will be required to complete a registration form and a GMS1 form (available from  reception & on our website), we also ask to see proof of address (a recent utility bill, bank statement, etc.)

Named Accountable GP

In accordance with NHS England requirements all patients registered at our practice are allocated to a named GP. Please be  aware that this does not affect your ability to make an appointment with any GP of your choice. Should you express a wish for  this to be changed to another GP we will do our best to accommodate your wishes.

Please ask at Reception if you wish to know who your named GP is.

Training

We are a training practice, this means we have GP Registrars working with us. GP Registrars are fully qualified doctors undertaking further  training to become GPs. The Registrars have their own surgeries but can seek advice and guidance from one of the other GPs if required

Infectious Disease

If you have a suspected infectious disease, please inform reception if you suspect an infectious disease, as this will enable us to deal with it appropriately during your visit to protect you, other patients and staff.

Consultations for 16 to 75 year olds

If a patient aged between 16 and 75 years has not had a practice consultation within a period of three years, we are happy, on request, to provide a consultation.
