Updating personal details
It is important to let us know if you change any of your personal details.
The practice communicates with a significant number of patients via text message. Therefore, ensuring your contact details are up-to-date is vital.
Important: It is your responsibility to notify us of contact detail changes.
This includes:
- Name
- Address
- Telephone number
- Mobile number
- Email address (check the data security issues of letting patients change their email address via a personal submission and not via an app)
Updating personal details on the NHS app
You can change your mobile phone number and email address using the NHS app or one of the other apps that are available if they have the functionality.
Changing your address
If you inform us that you have moved house and your new address is outside of our published practice boundary you will need to register with a GP nearer your new home. We will commence the process when we receive your notification and this will give you 28 days to register with a new practice.
If you don’t register within this time period your medical record will not be transferred in digital format to your new practice and this might disrupt the continuity of your care.
You can use the NHS GP Finder service here.
