New Patient Registration

If you live within our practice area you are welcome to register with us and our reception staff will be happy to guide you through the procedure. Eligibility can be quickly confirmed from your address so please provide proof by way of a recent utility bill along with one form of photo ID. 

The practice area is approximately a six mile radius from Killyleagh. 

You will need to fill out a registration form please call into the surgery as other accompanying information may be needed. This will be sent off to obtain your medical records from your previous doctor.

All new patients are offered a health check with a member of the healthcare team to ensure that any required tests are up to date and that we have an accurate note of any repeat medication you may be taking.

New Babies

You should register the birth of your baby immediately with the Registrar of Births. You will then be given a form which you should complete and hand to the doctor’s receptionists as soon as possible.

Personal Details

Please ensure that we have an up-to-date telephone number on our records. If you change your name, address or telephone number please let us know at reception as soon as possible.

Temporary Registration

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 temporary treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to consider registering as a permanent patient.

To register as a temporary emergency 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.
