See Registering for online services on how to register for this service.
Registering for online services
To register for online services, so you can book appointments, order medication and view your medical record, fill in the online access application form. You can also download and complete the form and bring it into the practice.
The practice will phone or text you to confirm a GP has authorised you to view your medical record.
You will then need to bring photo ID and proof of your address to the surgery, where the receptionist will print your online access codes.
If you are a newly registered patient, we will have to wait for your medical record to arrive at the surgery before we can process your request to view your medical record.
Registering for someone else on their behalf
You can register for someone else on their behalf (proxy access) if you are a carer or relative.
To register on behalf of someone else, complete the online proxy access request form. You can also download the form and bring it into the practice.
Proxy access needs to be authorised by a GP. The practice will phone or text you to confirm the request has been authorised.
You will then need to bring photo ID and proof of your address to the surgery, where the receptionist will set up your proxy access.
