GP online services Patient Access & NHS App

Signing up to Patient Access enables full use of the NHS app, allowing you to book appointments, request prescriptions, view your medical records, communicate with your GP and much more.

It also gives you lots of information on many health topics written by GPs. In these busy times, having this at your fingertips, 24 hours a day is essential.

To sign up to this service we will need to check who you are as this protects your records from people who are not allowed to view them. You will need to complete a short form, provide photo ID and proof of address such as a passport or driving licence. Once we have this information we will provide you with a letter with your unique username and password. This letter will explain where to log in.

To download and use the NHS App on your phone or tablet, you must be aged 13 or over. Once you have full access you can nominate a pharmacy for collection of prescriptions, get your NHS Covid pass, view your NHS number and much more. Using the app means you will be able to see test results, letters from hospitals and consultations from your GP.
