New to Leicester? Find a GP near you

If you have moved to Leicester or changed address, you may need to register with a GP practice that covers your new address. Willows Health provides NHS GP services across Leicester.

Find your local Willows practice

Registration is completed through the official NHS GP registration service at gp-registration.nhs.uk. When you choose a practice below, you will be taken to that NHS service to complete your registration. Registration is not guaranteed and the practice will review your request.

When should I register with a new GP?

You may need to register with a new GP practice if you have moved to Leicester, moved to a different part of Leicester, or your previous GP practice no longer covers your address. Registering with a local GP can help you access NHS GP services near where you live.

  • You have moved to Leicester.
  • You have changed address within Leicester.
  • Your current GP no longer covers your new address.
  • You want to access NHS GP services near your new home.
  • You need to register children or family members at a local practice.

What you may need to register

The NHS GP registration form may ask for details such as your name, date of birth, address and previous GP practice. If you know your NHS number, this can also help, but you can usually still complete the form if you do not know it.

  • Your current address.
  • Date of birth.
  • NHS number, if known.
  • Previous GP details, if known.
  • Details of regular medication or ongoing health conditions, where relevant.

Repeat prescriptions when moving GP

If you take regular medication, do not wait until you have run out before starting registration. If you are between GP practices, contact your current GP practice or a pharmacist for advice about your medication while your registration is being reviewed.

Registering children or family members

If you have moved with children or other family members, each person may need their own registration. Choose the Willows Health practice that covers your address and complete the NHS registration form for each person who needs to register.
