WELCOME TO CHAWTON HOUSE SURGERY
If you are moving into the area and living within our practice boundary, we will be pleased to register you here.
For registration we do require proof of your identity AND your address.
Suitable proof of identity is:
 passport
 driving licence photo id
Proof of address may be from:
 a driving licence
 utility bill
 rent book or something similar.
You will need to complete a GMS1 form. Bring the completed form with the proof of your identity and address
(and medical history questionnaire) to reception and your registration will be completed.
You will be allocated a GP on registration. Continuity of care is a very important part of general practice so you
will normally see the same GP at each visit. However this may not always be possible, due to availability of
appointments, which is why you can see anyone in the practice. All clinicians have access to your clinical notes via
the computer, but we do try to facilitate you seeing the doctor of your choice whenever possible.
Please complete the New patient Questionnaire and bring it with you when you register. If you are registering any
children under 16, they will also need to complete a special shortened medical history questionnaire. These details
are important as it may be some time before we receive your full notes.
The questionnaire MUST BE completed before registering.
If you are taking regular medication or have any other health issues, you will need to make a routine appointment
to see a doctor.
Remember when you register, you must bring with you
 a completed GMS 1 Form
 a completed Health Questionnaire
 your proof of Identity (as above) and address as above
