The Pines Surgery doctors welcome new patients who live within our practice area (see below).

For each applicant applying to register you will need to provide the following:

• Proof of identity (e.g. passport, photo driving licence or birth certificate) 
• Proof of address - two utility bills are required
• Proof of residency status (patients from overseas only)

All applicants that are accepted to the surgery, must complete:

• GMS1 Registration Form
• Health Questionnaire
• Immunisation History (this applies only to patient under 18years of age) 

For your convenience you may print and these forms by clicking on the images below. Once completed these form must be returned to the practice with the appropriate identification for staff to check. Alternatively you can collect a new patient pack from reception.

Our Practice Area Covers:

Kingsthorpe, Kingsheath, Dallington, Spencer Estate up to Spencer Bridge Road, Semilong to Grafton Street, North of Campbell Square, North of Wellingborough Road, West of Lumbertubs Way, West of Thorpeville, Chapel Brampton, Church Brampton, Pitsford and Boughton.  

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.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

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.

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.
