Glastonbury Health Centre

How to register

Our list is open, and we welcome registration requests from patients who live in, or are moving to, our practice area.

There are several ways you can register with us:

Collect and complete a registration form from the Health Centre – Please allow 3-5 working days from the date we receive the completed form for the registration to be processed.

Register online. Please complete both forms below: 

You will have a named, accountable doctor who is responsible for coordinating your care. You can still talk to or make appointments to see any of our doctors or nurses, not just your named GP.

 

Registering as a temporary patient

If you are not currently registered with the Health Centre, you will generally not be able to see one of our doctors unless you have a serious or urgent medical issue. For most other concerns, we recommend calling NHS 111 for advice and support.

If you’re not currently registered but need care at the surgery, you’ll need to fill out a temporary registration form.

You can register with our practice as a temporary patient for up to 3 months. During this time, you’ll still remain registered with your permanent GP. After the 3-month period, you’ll need to either re-register as a temporary patient or choose to register with us permanently.

Overseas Visitors and Emergency Treatment for Foreign Visitors

People visiting from abroad are entitled to free NHS treatment in emergency situations. This means that if the GP considers your condition to be an emergency, you will not be charged for the consultation.

For accidents or injuries, please attend the Minor Injuries Unit at West Mendip Hospital (Glastonbury Road) or A&E at Musgrove Park Hospital (Taunton).

If you need treatment or medication for a pre-existing condition, charges will apply. You can claim these costs back through your travel or health insurance.

Please note: These conditions also apply to British nationals living abroad.

If you are already registered with a local GP practice, you should attend your own practice, where your medical records are held.

Please be aware that this surgery is not a casualty department. If an X-ray or urgent hospital care is likely to be needed, patients should go directly to hospital.
