Meopham Medical Centre
New Patient Registration
Before applying to register as a patient at Meopham Medical Centre, please enter your postcode into the map below to see if you are within our catchment area
If you are within our catchment area and wish to register at Meopham Medical Centre, please click here to complete a registration form. We will send you a message once we process your registration.
It is very important that you notify us immediately of any changes of name, address or telephone number and email address. There are many reasons why we may need to contact you.
Temporary Services
If you fall ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one, you can receive treatment from a local GP practice.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This allows you to remain on the local practice's list while still being a patient of your permanent GP. After three months, you will need to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.
To register as a temporary patient simply contact the 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.
Disabled Patient Facilities
At the surgery a reserved parking space for the disabled is marked. Wheelchair access to the building is via a ramp near the front entrance. Patient services are provided at ground floor level and a disabled patients' WC is provided.
The NHS App
Meopham Medical Centre would like to invite you to use The NHS App
Owned and run by the NHS, the NHS App is a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet.
Your Named GP
As of the 1st April 2015, practices are required to provide ALL their patients with a named GP.
It may not always be possible to see your named GP. All clinicians have access to your medical records.
Proxy Access
Some patients would like to give someone else access to their GP Online Services account in order to request their medication on their behalf. It may be a family member, a close friend or carer, who can use it to help them manage their healthcare with access to their clinical record. This is called Proxy Access.
The proxy should have their own login credentials. This means that the proxy can be given different levels of access to the patient and their access can be switched off at the patient’s request or if the practice judges it to be in the patient’s best interest. The patient must complete a form that gives consent to the proxy access, and we must see photo ID of the patient - not the proxy.
There is information on the NHS website About the NHS App - NHS (www.nhs.uk) about how to use the NHS App and we will also be running workshops for patients to help them learn to use the NHS App and eConsult.
Some patients may not be able to use the NHS App and may not have a family member or carer who can access the NHS App for them. We have considered those patients, and they will be offered an alternative.
