REGISTER
WITH THE PRACTICE ?
Patients
are registered with a practice and not a particular doctor. When you register
with our practice, it can take a few weeks before we receive your medical records.
Therefore, in the interest of accuracy and safety we ask that you provide us with
as much information as possible. You will be offered a 'new patient check' with
the nurse/health care assistant. This is a brief health screening and we ask that
you bring along with you a sample of urine and your current repeat medication.
Patients applying to join our practice are not discriminated against on the grounds
of race, gender, social class, age, religion, sexual orientation or appearance,
disability or medical condition.
