Registering with the surgery
To register with the surgery:
- fill out an online registration form
- download a form and fill it in at home
- visit reception when we are open 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.
Please allow two working days for your new registration to be completed.
Everyone in the UK has the right to free care from a GP. If you don’t have proof of ID or address, you can still register.
Immigration status or nationality don’t matter – reception won’t ask for immigration documents and won’t share your information with the Home Office unless serious crime is involved.
Named GP
All patients at Alvanley Family Practice have a named, accountable doctor who is responsible for coordinating their care.
Your named doctor will be allocated to you by the practice. You can still talk to or make appointments to see any of our doctors or nurses, not just your named GP.
If you have a preference and would like to request a particular doctor at the practice to be your named GP please talk to one of our receptionists.
