Register as a New Patient

If you move out of our Practice area, difficulties can arise if emergency calls are necessary during peak times or out-of-hours. In these instances we would ask you to register with a Doctor closer to your new home.

Please phone NHS Inform Helpline: 0800 224488 or visit their website: www.nhsinform.scot to obtain details of doctors in your area.

Change of Address

If you change your address please notify us in writing - either through a letter or by filling in one of the practice forms available from reception. If you move outside the Practice area you will be asked to register with a doctor closer to your new home. Please refer to NHS Inform Helpline or website.

Change of Name

If you change your name we require evidence to prove that you do not intend to deceive or defraud another person.  The following forms of official evidence will be accepted: marriage certificate; civil partnership certificate; deed poll; adoption papers; a statutory declaration and divorce certificate / dissolution certificate.

Change of Telephone Number

It is important that we have your up-to-date telephone numbers in case we need to contact you urgently.  Ideally we would like a home number and a mobile number.  If you change your numbers, please ensure you notify reception.

Non-English Speakers

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.

Disabled Patient Facilities

Our premises are adaptable for disabled person access, and patients requiring assistance should advise reception staff who will be pleased to help. A designated parking bay is adjacent to the surgery entrance and the surgery has a ramp and wide doors to allow for wheelchair access.
