We have an open list and welcome requests for registration from patients living in or moving to the practice area.
You can register by either:
- Completing an online registration form available by visiting https://www.nhs.uk/services/gp-surgery/glenroyd-medical-centre/P81072/how-to-register
- Collecting and completing a form from our reception desk.
- Downloading and printing a registration form to complete and bring to the surgery – available HERE.
Before registering it is important that we point out that the Doctors do not routinely or regularly prescribe the following types of medications:
- Sleeping tablets or Tranquilisers
- Preparations such as Zopiclone, Diazepam, Nitrazepam, Temazepam or
- other Benzodiazepines
- Pregabalin
- Tramadol
- High dose opioids including Fentanyl, Oxycodone and Oramorph (morphine liquid)
Our Doctors offer a gradual reduction programme for patients on such medications. The programme is medically recognised as safe and effective and will occur over a maximum of 6 weeks. By registering, you will accept that you will participate in this programme and wish to abstain from these medications.
You will have a named, accountable doctor who is responsible for coordinating your care. You can still talk to or make appointments to see any of our doctors or nurses, not just your named GP.
We recommend that new patients undertake a health check with a practice nurse.
Temporary patients
If you are not registered with the surgery you will be unable to see one of our doctors unless you have a serious emergency. In most other cases, calling 111 is a better option.
If you are not registered but need treatment at the surgery you will need to complete a temporary registration form.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This means you can be registered with our practice and remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with our practice.
