I am already registered with a GP surgery, do I need to register with a local GP whilst I am at university?

If you are moving to Guildford to attend university, you should register with a GP surgery in Guildford. You will be living here for most of the year, and may need a GP appointment during that time. This is particularly important if you have any ongoing health conditions that require regular check ups or medication, such as asthma. When you go home during university vacation periods, you can still contact a GP surgery near your home. You may be able to receive treatment as a temporary patient or register there if needed. For more information, see our article on getting medical care when you’re away from university.
