If you change name, address or telephone number, please let our receptionists know by calling or writing to the surgery.
It is important that personal details on medical records are kept up-to-date. If you have changed your name, address, phone number or marital status, please do let the surgery know as soon as possible, so your records can be accurately maintained.
If your name has changed due to marriage or by Deed Poll, please provide a copy of the relevant documentation to be added to your records. If you have changed address, please check if you are still within our practice area boundary.
You can also update your next of kin, carer details or responsibilities, and other changes, such as Power of Attorney details, too. We will happily record these changes to your medical record. If you have online access to your record – via SystmOnline or the NHS App – you can update your personal details yourself, otherwise please contact the surgery.
- If you move outside the practice area you may need to find a doctor in your new area; you will have 30 days to register with a new GP practice before we deduct your medical records. There are instructions on what to do when you move to a new area on the back of your NHS medical card.
