New Patient Registration
We welcome new patients and invite you to contact us for a registration pack. Our receptionists will be happy to answer any questions you may have about our services. You can register by completing a registration form which can be obtained from the practice.
Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information or, if you live within our catchment area (see catchment area map) please follow the NHS Registration link below to register.
New Patient Health Check
Every patient registering with the practice will have the opportunity of a new patient consultation. The appointment gives you a chance to meet us, have your health checked and bring to light any ongoing medical problems or important past medical history, including continuing your medication.
Your appointment will be with our Health Care Assistant.
We will ask you about the following:
– Your past medical history (important illnesses and operations)
– Ongoing medical problems
– Medication
– Family history
– You will have your blood pressure taken and your urine will be tested. Occasionally other examinations or tests may be done if needed
Catchment Area
We cover a wide area in West Cornwall from Heamoor and Penzance in the West, to the outskirts of Hayle in the North, to Breage in the East and St Michael's Mount in the South, including the villages of Long Rock, Crowlas, Ludgvan, Canonstown, St Erth, Goldsithney, Marazion, Praa Sands, Townsend and Breage. We look forward to meeting you.
Changes to Personal Details
If you change your name, address or contact details (including your home telephone number or mobile telephone number), please let us know as soon as possible so that we can update our records. If you are receiving treatment at a hospital it might also be a good idea to inform them of any changes so that both our records are consistent when we communicate with them.
Guide to GP Services
The Royal College of General Practitioners has produced a useful guide for patients about the services on offer at GP Surgeries and how to access them. You can download the guide below.

Veteran Friendly Practice
We are an Armed Forces veteran friendly accredited GP practice. This means that, as part of the health commitments of the Armed Forces Covenant, we have a dedicated clinician who has a specialist knowledge of military related health conditions and veteran specific health services. This is important in helping ex-forces
to get the best care and treatment. If you are ex-forces, please let us know when registering to help ensure you are getting the best possible care.
