How to register

Register with Huddersfield Road Surgery How to Register

There are two ways to register at this practice:

To register in person you will be asked to complete a simple patient questionnaire so we have as much information about any medical condition you may have until we receive your full medical record from your previous doctor. Please give us as much information as you can.

The registration procedure may take a few days so if you are on regular medication please make sure you have enough to last you until you can make an appointment with one of our doctors.

You will be offered a health check with one of our Health Care Assistants in order to assess any current or future needs and to introduce our services. If you suffer from any long term condition e.g. diabetes, asthma, COPD, CHD, we have Practice Nurses who specialise in these conditions and you should make an early appointment with them for a review.

Everyone in the UK has the right to free care from a GP. If you don’t have proof of ID or address, you can still register. Immigration status or nationality don’t matter - reception won’t ask for immigration documents and won’t share your information with the Home Office unless serious crime is involved.

You can download the relevant forms here and bring them in to the surgery once you've completed them:

Please make sure you bring both the GMS1 as well as your completed patient registration form to enable us to complete your patient registration.

If you are coming from abroad you can download a new patient questionnaire in your chosen language from the link below.

Scroll down to the "Questionnaire for adults" or "Questionnaire for children" section of the page.
