New Patient Registration

As part of our registration process, new patients may be offered an appointment with the practice nurse for a new patient health check. This may include checking your blood pressure, reviewing your medical history, discussing any current health concerns and offering general lifestyle advice. These checks are not mandatory for registration but may be recommended depending on your age and health needs.

To register with us, you will need to complete a GMS1 registration form or submit an online registration through our website or the NHS App. Medical cards are no longer required.

We may ask for identification to help us match you to your NHS record, such as a passport, driving licence, utility bill or bank statement. However, ID is not required to register and we will not refuse registration if you are unable to provide it.

If you are a carer, or if you have a carer, please let us know when completing your registration form. If you would like a copy of our Carer’s Pack, please ask at Reception.

Change of Personal Details

It is very important that the Practice has up‑to‑date records. We would be very grateful if you could advise reception if you change your address and/or telephone number, or update these details using your online login.

Guide to GP Services

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.

Practice Area

Please note that if you are not within the Practice Area, this may affect your eligibility to register with us and may limit the services we are able to offer.

We no longer accept new registration requests from patients who are outside the practice catchment area and you will need to register with a GP practice closer to your home address.

Anyone who is already registered with us who lives outside the Practice Area (but still within Kirklees) will be advised to register at a practice closer to their home address and will be coded as living outside the practice’s registered area, as we may be unable to continue providing you with medical services from this address.

Anyone who is not within the Kirklees boundary will receive a letter advising that it will be necessary for you to register with a GP closer to your new address within the next 30 days. If we have not heard from you within 30 days, we will assume that you are living outside our practice boundary area and will remove your name from our patient list.

Please see below to view our practice boundary, which outlines our catchment area and the locations from which we are able to accept registrations, as well as the Kirklees boundary map:

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 while still remaining a patient of your permanent GP. After three months, you will need to re‑register as a temporary patient or register permanently 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.
