New Patients

Patients living within the practice area are welcome to register and our reception staff can confirm your eligibility from your postcode.

As a practice our first obligation is to provide a safe service to our registered patients and therefore the practice has decided not to accept out of area patients in view of the practical or clinical needs of our in area patients. This includes patients who are currently registered with us and moving to an out of area address.

The Spinney Surgery supports patients who wish to use a non-gendered title as well as non-gendered pronouns. If you do not wish to use gendered pronouns/titles or if you identify as non-binary, please let us know what you would for us to use when filling in your registration form. We do not require proof of identity, address or immigration status from patients wishing to register and we are able to register patients with no fixed abode or who are considered homeless.

To register, you can print off a GMS1 registration form which can be found at the top of this page. You can also download and complete our Patient Registration Questionnaire on your computer. Once completed, please return these to the surgery. If you are signing up for our online services, you will need to bring a copy of photo ID with you when you return your forms. For more information about signing up for online services, please click here.

Temporary Residents

You can register temporarily with a GP surgery while away from home for work, study or on holiday. You’ll remain registered with your permanent GP surgery.

To register as a temporary patient, please contact practice directly via our reception team. We will ask you to fill in a temporary resident registration form. Please note that temporary residents are not able to sign up to use the surgery’s online services.
