. You will be guided through a series of questions and your application will be submitted and sent directly to the surgery. We aim to register new patients within 14 days. 

Alternatively please follow the steps below.

1. Download the GMS1 Patient Registration Form, and the relevant Patient questionnair (Newborn, Child, or Adult). 
2. Complete and hand in to reception or email to d-icb.knowlehousesurgery@nhs.net 

Registrations can take upto 14 days to process, and during busy periods may take longer, but we will aim to complete as soon as we are able and we thank you for your patience and understanding.

You are able to collect a registration form from reception, however we are strongly discouraging footfall within the surgery during this time. 

If you do come into the surgery, please ensure you wear a mask and use the hand sanitizer station. 

 We are currently not accepting any out of area registrations. 

You have the right to express a preference in practitioner. However if that practitioner is not avilable and your needs are urgent you can be seen by any practioner available on the day.

GMS1 form can be found in the long banner below. The patient questionnaire can be found beneath. 

For the foreseeable future we are not accepting out of area registrations. This is due to a significant increase in patient numbers and therefore workload.   

We strive to meet an excellent patient experience, while also safely managing staff and GP workload, which is why we have made this difficult decision in order to protect patients, service quality and staff well-being. 

If you feel your application has extenuating circumstances, you are able to appeal in writting. Please email us at d-icb.knowlehousesurgery@nhs.net. Your appeal will be discussed at partner level in line with the GMS guidance.

We thank you for your understanding and patience during this challenging time. 

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 and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register 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.

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.
