New Patients

Practice Area

The Practice is open to new patients who live in our Practice area which covers Butetown, Grangetown, Atlantic Wharf, Cardiff Bay, and Windsor Quay. 

It is bounded to the North and West by the railway line, thus NOT including most of the City Centre.

To the South its boundary is the River Ely.

To the East it is the Central Link A4234 dual carriageway.

Please use the interactive map opposite to check your eligibility.

Registration

Patients wishing to register should complete the appropriate registration form and a patient questionnaire. This enables us to obtain details of your past medical history and to provide the appropriate care.

Both forms are available online via the links below or from reception.

You can also register for our online services using the My Health Online application form.

Temporary Registrations

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 simply contact the local practice you wish to use. 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.

Accountable GP

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.

Accessing someone else’s information

As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.

To requests proxy access:

  • collect a proxy access form from reception

Linked profiles in your NHS account

Once proxy access is set up, you can access the other person’s profile in your NHS account, using the NHS App or website.

The NHS website has information about using linked profiles to access services for someone else.
