  • Alternatively visit reception from 8am to 6:30pm and collect a paper registration form

When you register, it’s helpful to have your NHS number.

You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.

However, you do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number to register at the practice.

Every registering individual needs to attend the practice when returning your completed forms.

Additional information regarding the registration process

We ask that if there are any children registering you provide us with a copy of their immunisation history (the red book is preferable).

If any persons registering take any regular medications we advise that you obtain a month’s supply from your previous GP before submitting your registration with us as we do not want anybody going without any medication during your transition to our practice.

You will be offered a new patient check when registering with our practice this is to introduce you to the practice, obtain a family history and to continue any ongoing care if necessary.

The practice can only refuse your application if it has fair and reasonable grounds to do so or you live outside the practice area. 

If you wish to discuss any of the above first please ring the GP surgery on 0161 624 5457 and speak to a member of our friendly team.

The named GP is responsible for the coordination and delivery of all appropriate services, where required based on clinical judgement, to each of their patients.

  • Patients do not need to see their named GP when they book an appointment with the practice.
  • Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice.
