New Patient Registration

Our inner registration area covers Hampton, Hempsted and also the region of Woodston which is bounded by the River Nene to the north, London Road (A15) to the east and the Nene Parkway to the west. There is a detailed map at the surgery. We can only register people living inside this area, and if you do move away from Hampton we will ask that you register with a practice in your new area, unless you will still be living within our outer boundary area covering parts of Orton Malborne and Orton Longueville. There is a detailed map of our full practice area at the surgery.

Our facilities include access for wheelchair users and a toilet for disabled people. All services are on the same level.

How to Register

If you would like to use the medical services at Hampton Medical Blog please register your whole household with the practice. Please ensure you have your NHS Number and a proof of your current address.

Please allow 2 working days for us to process your registration.

All patients registered at the practice are registered to a pooled list. The GPs at the practice do not hold personal lists of patients.

Patients have the right to express a preference of practitioner for appointments to the reception team; however we cannot guarantee an appointment with a doctor within 48 hours or a nurse within 24 hours if you chose to specify a particular clinician.

Protecting and using patient information

We ask you for information so that you can receive proper care and treatment. The information you give us and your medical records will be kept on computer. You have a right of access to your health records. Everyone working for the NHS has a legal duty to keep information about you confidential. If at any time you would like to know more about how we use your information you can speak to the person in charge of your care or to the Practice Manager.

Accessible Information

If you have any communication or support needs relating to a disability, impairment or sensory loss please let us know when you register and give us more information to guide us in how we can best meet your needs.

This might include what is the best method of contact for you or whether you would need support in communications with the Practice.

The obligations that the NHS has, together with the rights that every individual enjoys, are set out in the Data Protection Act 1998.

Your Allocated Doctor

All Patients will be allocated with a named GP who will have overall responsibility for the care and support that our surgery provides to them.

This does not prevent you from seeing any GP in the practice as you currently do.

New patients are allocated a GP on registration

If you would like to know who is your allocated GP please ask at reception.
