To register with our practice, you’ll need to complete:

• Our New Patient Questionnaire
• Our New Patient Registration Form

These are available at reception, or you can complete them online using the links below. When you visit the surgery for the first time you will be asked to sign the forms to confirm that the details are correct. You may wish to provide identification for registration with the practice but it is not required. We will not refuse to register someone because they cannot produce proof of identity, immigration status or proof of address. For more information on registration please see our registration form. If accepted you will be given an appointment with the Practice Nurse or Healthcare Assistant for a full health check. This is an opportunity to discuss any health needs or concerns you may have. Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information.

Once your registration is accepted, your medical records will be transferred to us. Please note it can take several weeks for your records to arrive.

If you’re on regular medication
Book a 20-minute appointment with a GP soon after registering. This helps us ensure your ongoing care continues smoothly.

Ethnic Monitoring

Collecting information about patients’ ethnic backgrounds helps the NHS plan and provide the right services for our community. This is done through a simple tick-box on our forms.

At Yardley Medical Centre, we are committed to equality and inclusion. We do not discriminate on the grounds of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, political views, or disability. We are also proud to be an Equal Opportunities Employer.

To provide the best services to you, we need to ensure we have your correct details.   

If you have recently moved house changed phone number, email address or changed name let us know via our online form

If you become unwell while away from home, or if you’re not registered with a GP but need to see one, you can get emergency treatment from a local GP practice for up to 14 days. After that, you’ll need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This means you’ll be added to the local practice’s list but will still remain registered with your usual GP. After three months, you’ll need to re-register as a temporary patient or join the local practice permanently.

To register temporarily, contact the GP practice you want to use. Practices don’t have to accept temporary patients, but they must offer emergency treatment. You can’t register as a temporary patient at a practice in the same area where you’re already registered.
