Registering as a temporary patient

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

If you are away from home, you can register as a temporary patient with Adderley Green Surgery for up to three months. This will allow you to use our surgery and still remain a patient at your permanent GP surgery. After three months, you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with us.

You can register as a temporary patient at Adderley Green Surgery by completing our online form.

Register as a temporary patient

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered. 

Registering children

Children under 16 need to be registered by their parent or guardian. You can do this by completing the new patient registration form, the PRF1 form and child immunisation form.

You will need to provide a form of ID to prove that you’re their parent or guardian.
