Sign up to GP online services
If you are registered with a GP surgery, you can access online services. By signing up to the GP online services, you will be able to:
- book or cancel appointments online with a GP or nurse
- renew or order repeat prescriptions online
- view parts of your GP health record, including information about medication, allergies, vaccinations, previous illnesses and test results
The service is free. Everyone who is registered with a GP can have access to their practice’s online services. For more details, see how can I start using GP online services?
Different GP surgeries use different providers of online services. Your GP surgery might use more than one and give you a choice. Ask your GP surgery, check their website, or check the information about your GP surgery if you do not know which provider you can use.
If you are not yet registered with a GP practice see our information about how to register with a GP practice.
