Please use the boundary checker below to see if your address is in our boundary. If so, please follow the steps below.

If necessary, an appointment will be made for your new patient health check, which will be carried out by a member of our nursing team.

You will be registered with one of the partners although patients are free to consult with a GP of their choice.

We require the following 4 documents to register a new patient: 

1. GMS1 Form (online version below)

2. New Patient questionnaire (online version below)

3. Photo ID

4. Proof of address

Please email proof of ID/address as an attachment to wcccg.upton.adminteam@nhs.net

You will not be registered at the practice until all of the above documents have been received at the practice. 

DISCLAIMER: All patients that submit online registration request will be automatically opted in for Patient Access. Patient Access allows you to book appointments online, request repeat prescriptions and view prospective medical records from 1st November 2022. You will receive registration details for this service via email. If you would like to opt out of Patient Access registration, please contact the practice. 

Further information regarding Patient Access is available here: Patient Access  

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.

The surgery has disabled/wheelchair access to the ground floor, and a disabled toilet.

We have portable hearing loops for the deaf or hard of hearing and offer large-print practice leaflets for the visually impaired. Please ask at reception for either of these two services.

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.

Open the leaflets in one of the following languages:

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
