JOINING THE RUSHDEN MEDICAL CENTRE

Accountable / Named GP for All Patients

All patients registered at the surgery have a named doctor who has overall responsibility for your care and support. If you choose to see another doctor at the surgery you are entirely free to go on doing so exactly as before.

Do you live within our Registering Boundary Area?

How to register

We welcome new patients who live within our practice area.

If you live in our practice area (which covers the NN10 post code area within the county of Northamptonshire) and would like to register with us, please complete one of our registration forms that are available from our receptionists. You will be registering with the practice rather than an individual GP.

To register as an NHS Patient you will need to show that you have been legally resident in the UK for at least the last 6 months. When registering you will be asked to provide the following supporting documentation:

1. Proof of identity.
2. Proof that you are legally resident in the UK.
3. That you have been legally resident in the UK for at least the past 6 months.
4. That you are resident within the Practice area.

Once you have provided the appropriate documentation and completed the registration forms you application will be processed. Please note that this can take up to 5 working days.
