Hi Emy,

They are talking rubbish. We went to my GP's surgery a week after Judy arrived and she registered no problem. They did seem a bit uncertain at first, but then took a copy of her passport, her personal details and assigned a GP and arranged a preliminary appointment. I am sure this the standard practice.

I recall some guidance on the internet, but cannot remember where. UKBA? NHS Direct?

Good luck

Hi

This might help

Perhaps they were full, but in that case they should have suggested an alternative. The requirement to be married to get a GP doesn't make any sense at all...
