Join the Practice

Register as a New Patient

Everyone is welcome, in general practice, when requesting to join the surgery we ask you to come in person, you do not need to provide proof of ID, NHS number, immigration status or NHS number in order to receive care but helpful if you have.

The NHS is not free to everyone, and overseas visitors must be charged for specified services, including NHS services so we will be asking you to provide us with information and certain documents to support your claim for free treatment.

If you are a visitor from inside the European Economic Area (EEA) we would ask that you bring your European Health Insurance card (EHIC) or proof of travel insurance along with proof of your nationality with you.

If you are from outside the EEA you will need to provide us with documents to prove your identity where you live, work and when entered the UK, for example passport, visa, current utility bill, council tax or bank statement documents less than 3 months old.

Registration forms need to be completed fully this includes for example carers details, consent, next of kin, height, weight, blood pressure (we have a health monitor at the practice sites).

Assignment to an accountable GP

We will register you with a GP, and you do have a right to request to see a GP of your choice. All patients aged over 75 years will have a named GP. You can find out who your named GP is by asking at reception; this information is also shown on your repeat prescription form.

Proxy Access

If you are managing the health of another, you can apply for proxy access to that person's online account. This provides access to the person's online account for:

  • book and view appointments
  • order medication
  • access to medical records

Proxy access on behalf of children

People with parental responsibility for children have rights to access their children’s records. This is in most cases. Not all parents have parental responsibility. Proxy access for parent and guardian to a child’s record is a practice-level decision.

Proxy access on behalf of another adult

A person must be registered for online access at the practice where the patient they are acting for is registered. Proxy is the recommended alternative to sharing login details.

Practice Area

We are accepting new patients and we can cover areas mainly in Wolverhampton, postcodes WV14 and WV10, if you are out of the area the practice has the option to register service users although they would need to understand we would not be able to provide home visits, the practice needs to ascertain whether it is clinically appropriate.

Change of Personal Details

Please let us know as soon as possible if you change your name, address or home and mobile telephone numbers. If you move outside the practice area you should register with a doctor who is local to your new address

Temporary Registrations

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.
