Register as a New Patient.

Join us as a patient at Barbourne Health Centre.

We want to welcome new patients joining us from Farrier House Surgery. If you would like to register with us, you can do so here. For more information, please visit www.farrierhousesurgery.co.uk/closure. 

We want to reassure our existing patients that the closure of this practice will not impact the service we provide to you—as practices across Worcester City Primary Care Network have worked alongside NHS Herefordshire & Worcestershire to mitigate the impacts of this planned closure.

All nine local practices are welcoming a share of Farrier House patients to our lists in line with their size and capacity, and extensive recruitment and planning have taken place across the city to allow us to ensure we can continue to offer a high standard of care to both our existing patients, and those joining us from Farrier House.

Joining the practice.

There are two ways to register with us at Barbourne Health Centre:

  1. Fill out our online form. It takes about 10 minutes to complete and you’ll be registered on the same day. You’ll receive a confirmation text and email when your registration is complete.

  2. Or, if you’re unable to fill out the online form, you can download and print the adult or child paper form. If you complete the paper form as an adult or child, you must also complete the NHS registration form too. Both forms should then be delivered to the surgery.

Our catchment area is shown on the map below. When you complete the online registration form, your address will be checked to ensure you are within the catchment area.

 

Temporary residents.

 

If you are not registered with a GP but need to see one, you can get emergency treatment at any GP surgery.

If you need treatment for more than 14 days, you will need to register with that GP surgery as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can register as a temporary resident if you plan to live near the GP surgery for up to 3 months. After 3 months you will have to apply to register with that surgery as a permanent resident.

You can register temporarily with a GP surgery while away from home for work, study or on holiday. You’ll remain registered with your permanent GP surgery.

What information do I need?

Try to have the following information with you when you see a temporary GP for the first time:

  • details of any medical conditions you have

  • details of medical conditions you’ve had in the past

  • the name of any medicines you’re currently taking

  • details of anything you’re allergic to

  • contact details for your permanent or previous GP surgery

  • your NHS number

You’ll also need to complete a Temporary Resident Form (GMS3). You can download this by using the button below.
