Registration of foreign nationals at the health centre standard proceduresRegis

Good morning, everyone. I’m John Smith, the General practitioner of London Fields Medical Centre, and I’m very glad to give you a brief introduction about our practice and some suggestions about how to see a doctor here.
Our receptionists are usually the first point of contact and are here to help you. They have a lot of information to hand and in most cases will be able to help you with your inquiry, ensuring you see the most appropriate clinician.
OK, right, well the first thing to do is to register. We can only accept new patients who live in our practice catchment area. To register with us you will need 2 proofs of address such as bank statements or tenancy agreements plus 1 form of ID such as passport or drivers’ license.
If you are foreign nationals, then you’ll have to register as a temporary visitor. Then, fill in this form. It’s a medical history form. You have to give details of any illnesses you have had. Then you also need to write down if you’ve got any allergies, OK? This as well as that, we need to know if you’ve had any operations... and last of all, you have to give full details of current medication you may be on. This as well as that, you need to fill in this registration card — this is for your personal details, that’s your full name, address and telephone numbers. Okay? And we also need to make an appointment for you to see the doctor for a new patient health check. It’ll just take about 15 minutes, that’s all. It’s just a basic check-up really.
