New Patient Registrations
We regret to inform you that, due to current pressures on the practice, we have taken the decision to limit the number of new patient registrations at (insert name of practice).
This means the patient registration process will operate in a different way and could involve registering with an alternative practice.
For assistance with finding a GP Surgery in Sussex, please contact the NHS Sussex GP Allocations Teams by email sxicb.gpallocations@nhs.net stating the full names of everyone who needs to register, and your full address, including postcode. Alternatively you can call 0300 140 9855. The team will provide you with the available practice options and arrange for an allocation if necessary.
However, we will continue to register the following patients in the usual way:
first degree relatives of patients already registered at the Practice who are living at the same address as registered patients and are still living within our boundary.
newborn or adopted babies of parents already registered at the Practice who are still living within our boundary.
If you do not have access to the internet and need to register with a new practice please contact Sussex Health & Care and NHS Sussex on 07876 843178 and 07407 024498 for details of practices that are currently accepting new patients.
