Join the surgery

Before filling out a registration form, check you are in our catchment area above.

Patients registering with the surgery will be asked to complete the 3 forms attached below plus the Text Message Reminder Form (if required) at the bottom of this page. In addition at least one form of identification should be provided (Birth Cert/Student ID Card/Driving Licence/Passport or HC2 Cert/Home Office app reg card).

New Patient Application Form

New Patient Questionnaire

Patient Consent to Access Health Record

The Registration forms are important as they enable us to record full details of your medical history, understand any medical problems and establish your current medication. When these are returned to us you can regard yourself as registered with us.

Parents of patients under 16 years of age will also need to submit details of all immunisation dates.

It is important that new patients ensure they have a good supply of repeat medications from their previous GP as we only issue prescriptions to new patients urgently if they are for a serious medical problem such as asthma, epilepsy or heart disease.

All patients are registered with the practice rather than a particular doctor.

Please e-mail the completed forms to oldirvineroad_ADOC@aapct.scot.nhs.uk or hand into the post box at the main entrance door.

From 1st April 2015, practices are required to allocate all patients (including children) with a named accountable GP.

The named GP is responsible for the coordination and delivery of all appropriate services, where required based on clinical judgement, to each of their patients.

• Patients do not need to see their named GP when they book an appointment with the practice.
• Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice.

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 contact the practice. 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.

We have a texting service which allows you to receive confirmation and reminders about your appointments.

To have this service you will need to register by completing a consent form.

Please remember to update your contact details with us when you change address, telephone numbers and email address.
