Register with our practice
We are using a new online service called “Register with a GP Surgery”, which makes it easy to register with Parkwood Surgery
All you need to do is fill this quick online form to start the process, which should only take about 10 minutes to complete.
You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or NHS number. The service is designed and run by the NHS, so you can rest assured that your personal information is safe.
The form helps cut the practice administrative workload and makes it easier for you to register.
Paper forms are still available at reception if you need one.
Catchment Area (Practice Boundary)
Access to Records
In accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and Access to Health Records Act, patients may request to see their medical records. Such requests should be made through the operation officer and may be subject to an administration charge. No information will be released without the patient consent unless we are legally obliged to do so.
Proxy Access
Proxy access is available for online services. This is for patients who are under 16, and for those who have difficulty accessing online services themselves.
To request for Proxy Access for patients over 16, a consent form must be signed by the patient.
Parents can request proxy access for their children.
Before giving you access, the GP surgery may need to check:
- ID for you and the child, for example passports
- documents that help to prove you have parental responsibility, for example a birth certificate
- with anyone else that shares parental responsibility with you
- for safeguarding issues
- that the child consents to your access (agrees to it) or lacks capacity to consent, if they are aged 11 or over
You do not have to live at the same address as the child to have access.
You can have proxy access for more than 1 child, and a child can have more than 1 proxy acting on their behalf.
Please note: When requesting Proxy Access, both individuals must be registered to Parkwood Surgery. We cannot set up proxy access for patients to those who are not registered with the surgery.
