Online Registration 

To register with the practice you will need your Nottingham address.  Please ensure you have this before proceeding.

IMPORTANT - Nottingham is your new home town.  The 'home address' section on the registration form refers to your new Nottingham address.  If you are a student currently living elsewhere in the UK and moving to Nottingham please put your current address in the previous address section.  If you are moving to Nottingham from abroad please only enter your Nottingham Address.

Please ensure that all fields in the registration forms are completed.  Although it may be tempting to skip a few and hope for the best they are all important and without the full details we cannot process your registration.  If there are any queries we will contact you by phone, email or text message.  We have a limited window in which to edit your registration and resubmit so please do respond asap.

If you are an International student Registering with the National Health Service for the first time please follow this link.

If you have children under the age of 12 who are yet to be registered in the UK, the form below will need to be completed and returned to the practice in person or by post.

What happens next

Please allow 72 working hours for your registration to be processed. We will only contact you if there is an issue with your registration.

However if you need same day medical care please contact reception on 0115 8468888.

You will be invited to visit our friendly team at Cripps Health during week one.  This is to confirm your registration and ensure you are up to date with the UK Vaccine schedule including Covid Vaccines. 

Allocation of Named Accountable GP

All patients who register with us, including children, are allocated a named, accountable GP who is responsible for their overall care at the practice.  This is referred to as your 'Usual GP'.  You should be informed of your Usual GP when you register but you can check who this is with any member of staff at any time.  We will always make reasonable efforts to accommodate requests to change the Usual GP.  This does not change your ability to request to see any of our individual GP's at any stage.
