What Happens Next?
We will enter your details onto our computer system, and for patients who have previously registered with a doctor in the UK arrange for transfer of your medical records to us.
If you need to see a doctor or nurse you can book an appointment from one week after we have received your completed forms. This is to allow us time to process your registration.
If you take regular medication for contraception, asthma, hay fever, acne or eczema you will need to book an appointment with one of our specialist nurses at least a week before your medication runs out. (Please tell reception which condition your medication is for so they can direct you to the correct nurse).
All other medications please book an appointment with a doctor at least one week before your medication runs out.
New Patient Health Checks
Our Healthcare Assistants are trained to undertake New Patient Health Checks.
For an appointment please telephone reception on 0118 9874551 between 0800 -1830 Monday to Friday.
