📢 Been removed from your GP practice list?

NHS England is carrying out a national exercise to check GP registration lists. If you have been removed, it may not have been your GP practice that removed you.

✅ Your medical records are safe – they have not been lost or deleted.

🏥 You can re-register – if you still live within our practice area, please contact us to re-register.

💊 Please don’t delay – if you take regular medication, are waiting for test results or are due a review, re-register as soon as possible to avoid disruption to your care.

❓ Think you have been removed by mistake? Please contact your GP practice.

We understand this may be worrying, and concerns about the process are being raised on behalf of patients.

Please share this post to help spread the word. 💜
