New Patient Registrations

Our practice list is open to register as a new patient who lives within our catchment area.

Please come along to Newquay Health Centre to register in person. We will provide you with the necessary forms for registration.  It is not presently possible to register with a GP at this Practice online, however we are developing this service and it will become available in the near future.

Please note: we will not action any 'out of area' registrations that you submit.  If you live outside the catchment area below, we will not process your application.  Please register with a GP closer to your home.  Many thanks

Practice Boundary

April 2024

The map above represents the contractual practice boundary for Newquay Health Centre

It has come to our attention that the GP finder postcode search on NHS.uk is incorrect, and is including postcodes that are outside of our practice boundary.

To confirm, our practice area does not include the villages of Fraddon, St Columb Road or Indian Queens and we will not be accepting new registrations from these areas. 

Summary Care Records (SCR)

All patients registered with a GP have a Summary Care Record, unless they have chosen not to have one. The information held in your Summary Care Record gives health and care professionals, away from your usual GP practice, access to information to provide you with safer care, reduce the risk of prescribing errors and improve your patient experience.

Your Summary Care Record contains basic information about allergies and medications and any reactions that you have had to medication in the past.

Temporary Registrations

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.

Non English Speakers

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.
