Opening of Patient List
From Wednesday 15th May we will be re-opening our patient list
We will accept a maximum of 40 patient each Wednesday from 9:30am. The registration form will not be available once we have reached our limit.
The total number of patients we can have on our lists was dictated by the planning application on our move. Once we have reached this limit we will close our lists again.
The practice intends to apply for a new planning application to remove this patient number cap and allow us to take more patients. We will put information here when we have more details.
Catchment area
Before filling out a registration form, check you are in our catchment area.
Find out which GPs you can register with on the NHS website.
Registering with the surgery
We accept new registrations every Wednesday from 9.30am. Once capacity is reached, we close off registrations until the following week.
To register with the surgery:
- To fill out an online registration form please go to the NHS website.
- if you are unable to do an on-line registration form and don’t have access to the internet, please visit our reception between 9:30-10:30 on Wednesday’s and collect a paper registration form.
When you register, it’s helpful to have your NHS number. You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.
PLEASE NOTE – It can take up to 2 weeks for your registration to be processed. You will still be registered at your previous practice until you receive a text message from us to confirm your registration has been processed.
Named GP
All patients at Fort House Surgery have a named, accountable doctor who is responsible for coordinating their care.
Your named doctor will be allocated to you by the practice.
Whilst we will try and ensure you see the same GP, there will be occasions when it won’t be possible (for example you need to speak or see a GP on the day and your GP isn’t working; or they are on holiday when you want an appointment)
