GPs in Birmingham — the landscape

Birmingham sits within NHS Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Board, which commissions primary care across the city. Anyone in England can register with a GP surgery for free, and you don't need proof of address or ID to register. You can register online via the NHS App, on the NHS website, or directly through most practices' own sites. Each Birmingham GP practice has a defined catchment area, so you'll typically need to live within that area - though some practices accept patients from a wider boundary.

Good to know about GPs

Yes. You can register with any GP practice in England that has open lists — you don't need to live in their catchment area, though practices can decline if you're outside their boundary. Registering with a new practice automatically transfers your records.
