New Patients
New patients who live within the Practice boundaries are welcome. This covers an area within a 5.5 mile radius of the Practice.
To register with the Practice, you must complete registration forms, either HS200 (if your previous GP was within the UK) or HSCR1 (anyone registering from outside the UK) - these forms are available at the surgery or below.

Registration Supporting Documentation
Dr Ruddell's Practice New Patient Questionnaire
ALL new patients are required to produce supporting documentation and a brief medical summary from their previous GP - please see attached supporting documentation for further details.
All new registrations need approval by the Business Services Organisation which takes 2 weeks or more depending on different circumstances.
New patients are required to attend for a new patient health check. You will receive a letter inviting you to make an appointment when your registration has been approved.
Where patients are requesting to join the Practice list, the Practice does not discriminate on the grounds of race, gender, social class, religion, sexual orientation, appearance, disability or medical condition.
Please note that if you move out of the Practice you will need to register at a practice closer to your new address.
