Care for veterans

Please tell us if you’ve served in the UK Armed Forces. We can add this to your medical record to ensure you’re considered for priority access to NHS care where appropriate, and linked with veteran-specific services.

You can let us know:

– When you register
– During a consultation
– By calling reception
– We will require your DPHC (Defence Primary Healthcare) records as evidence.
