Important Notice
Practices have received notification from SPPG (formerly the Health and Social Care Board), that they have frozen the free movement of patients between practices for an initial period of 6 months, commencing 1 November 2023. This is to help practices deal with winter pressures.
Any patient who is currently registered with a GP practice in their area should remain registered with their current practice and should not move to another practice within the same catchment area. Any patient new to the area, or without a current GP practice will be registered with the practice on request.
Registering With The Practice
The practice has a catchment area of 5 miles. You will be registered with the practice and not with a specific GP, although you may name a preferred doctor and/or nurse and we will record this preference. You will be asked to complete 3 forms:
You will also need to provide:
- Photographic ID
- Proof of Address
- BSO may also request further information
- Confirmation from your previous GP of any medication you are currently being prescribed
You will be given an appointment with a doctor for a new patient examination.
