Anyone who wishes to join the list needs to complete a New Patient Registration form, available from reception or download the New Patient Registration from the download forms tab.
Whereas new patients register with the Practice rather than with an individual GP, they are nonetheless free to request an appointment with any of the practitioners.
In accordance with our policy on diversity and equality, we welcome patients from all diverse groups.
If you have a NI medical card, you should bring it with you along with your new patient registration form.
If you are registered with a Doctor in NI and do not have your medical card, you will need to fill in an HS200.
If you have lived outside NI at any time and have been registered with a Doctor, you will need to fill in an HSC/R1 form.
Please also bring the following documents with you: proof of identity, proof of residency and proof of why you are in Northern Ireland. If you do not bring these documents your registration will be delayed.
