Safe surgery statement
Everyone in the UK has the right to free care from a GP. If you don’t have proof of ID or address, you can still register. Immigration status or nationality don’t matter – reception won’t ask for immigration documents and won’t share your information with the Home Office unless serious crime is involved.

You do not need to provide proof of ID to register with a GP practice, however it helps us to confirm your details if you can provide a copy of your driving licence, passport, student card, birth certificate, asylum papers (Home Office (NASS) photo ID card), pension card or bus pass. We do not need proof of your address but again it helps us to confirm your details so anything with your name on such as a utility bill, bank statement or benefit statement dated within the last 3 months helps us to process your registration quicker.
What happens next?
The information you give will be sent via computer to Primary Care Support England who will then request your medical records to be transferred to us from your previous doctor.
If you have not had a doctor in the UK before, a new medical record will be made for you with a unique National Health Service (NHS) number. A letter will be sent to you informing you of your NHS Number, your Sheffield address and the doctor you have been registered with. Please ensure that once you receive this letter to then keep it safe as this information can be used to register with another doctor when you leave Sheffield.
