Our practice welcomes patients from most areas of ML2 (not ML2 9) and ML1 (5). Our area includes Wishaw, Cleland, Overtown, Waterloo, Garrion Bridge, and Bogside.
Wishaw practices in the Houldsworth Centre operate a registration rota for new patients. Please contact NHS Lanarkshire reception on 01698 355511 to find out which GP practice is accepting new patients that week.
If it is ourselves, please pop into the surgery and request new registration forms. All registration forms must be returned by 5pm Friday of the week we are open.
When you register with us you will be asked to complete a registration form and a health questionnaire which gives us basic information about you. Please ensure you complete all parts of our forms. You will require to provide identification when registering with the practice, if possible, please include copies of your identification with your registration form.
Please ensure you have sufficient medication from your previous practice as we do not have access to your medical records/repeat prescription information straight away.
Please register your newborn baby as soon as possible, you don’t need to wait until their formal registration at the civic centre.
Temporary patients
If you are not registered with the surgery you will be unable to see one of our doctors unless you have a serious emergency. In most other cases, calling 111 is a better option.
If you are not registered but need treatment at the surgery you will need to complete a temporary registration form.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This means you can be registered with our practice and remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with our practice.
