New Patient Registration

If you wish to register online with the Practice please click on the link below 'New Patient Registration Form'. This will need to be completed alongside the additional questionnaire - found here.

Your registration form will automatically be sent to us by e-mail, however you will need to return the additional questionnaire to us via email at harvey.practice@nhs.net or by post.

If you wish to register by attending the surgery, the receptionist can provide you with a paper form and questionnaire.

After registration is complete, you will be notified via text message of your allocated usual GP and offered an initial new patient consultation. Following this you may see any doctor regardless of with whom you are registered.

Note that by sending the form you will be transmitting information about your self across the Internet and although every effort is made to keep this information secure, no guarantee can be offered in this respect.

Private Patients

Patients who do not wish to be registered as an NHS patient may request to be a private patient by liaison with an individual doctor. It is, however, the Practice policy that all patients are treated equally and that an NHS patient will receive at least as good a service as private patients.

The Royal College of General Practitioners has produced a useful guide for patients about the services on offer at GP Surgeries and how to access them.  You can download the guide below.

Temporary Registration

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.
