New Patient Registration

The doctors welcome new patients who live within our practice area. 

The practice covers the whole of Pitsea and Basildon. The surgery is situated in the East Wing of the Dipple Medical Centre.

How to Register

Patients wishing to register will need to provide their NHS medical card or complete a family doctor services registration form and provide 1 form of photo identification and 1 proof of address (utility bill). We will also ask you to complete a new patient questionnaire which provides a medical history until we receive your records from your previous surgery. If you are on regular medicine please bring evidence of this with you. 

Once your application is complete an appointment will be made for you to attend for a health check with our practice nurse.

You may print off a registration form, fill it out and bring it in with you on your first visit to the practice.

All new patient registrations please come in between 2pm and 5pm to register.

New Baby Registrations

Where possible we would ask you to register the new baby prior to six week postnatal check so we can ensure baby’s registration is complete before their first immunisations are due.

Please contact reception for further information.

Temporary Registration

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 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.
