Temporary Patient Registrations

If you are ill while away from home patients are asked to contact their registered GP in the first instance as they hold their medical records, and can undertake a consultation by phone. 

Surgeries are using online portals, apps and websites for patients to communicate in; and are able to send a prescription to any pharmacy in England. 

If you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice. You will need to register as a temporary patient.

 

If you are visiting Wales, Scotland or Northen Ireland you will need to register at a local surgery as prescriptions cannot be issued outside of England.  

If you are outside the UK, you should visit a pharmacy or contact your travel insurance company for advice and guidance.

Practice Boundary (Written Description)

Every practice is required to have a boundary (similar to a school catchment area) that defines the area that they are contractually bound to provide services for the population of.

Our boundary follows the following roads:

From Amersham School, down Stanley Hill to the A355, turning right at Station Road, up to Amersham Station.  Following the railway tracks until just before the Chesham Bois Tennis & Squash Club, heading north until it meets with Copperkins Lane, continuing north up Bois Lane.  Then along the Amersham Road, turning left into South Road, then left again down Sycamore Road, until it reaches Grimsdell's Lane.  From the end of Grimsdell's Lane across country to the north of Beechwood Avenue and on to Stony Lane.  Then heading south down Stony Lane, Church Grove, Lodge Lane and Roughwood Lane until it meets the A413 Amersham Road.  Then north up Amersham Road, turning right into Cokes Lane until it meets Harewood Road, then left across country to Amersham School.

 

Accountable GP

Every patient is assigned to a GP partner, this is known as an accountable GP.

You do not have to see your accountable GP for any element of your care, you have the right to express a preference of which GP in the practice you see, for appointments, however this may lead to a longer wait time due to demand and holiday leave. We will advise you at the time of booking your appointment should this arise, so you are able to make an informed decision to change to another GP.    

Proxy Access

If a patient is unable to manage their health needs, they can appoint a proxy to access their medical records to view consultaions and medications, request repeat medications, etc on the patients behalf.

A proxy user can be:

a parent, guardian or carer for a child up to 12 years of age who has complex medical needs.

a spouse, carer, friend or family member that supports a patient (aged 13 or more) to manage their health needs.

To apply for proxy access, please attend reception during opening hours Monday to Friday 10.30 to 12.30 and 3.00 to 5.00 to ask for the appropriate application form.

Once submitted, your application will be reviewed by the patients registered GP and authorised as deemed appropriate.
