Your health

We are committed to the general well-being of our students and helping you to fulfil your full potential whilst you are studying at City. Your health and being well are key to you achieving your full potential during your time at City.

Register with a Doctor / GP

It is important that you register with a GP near where you live. We encourage you to do so as soon as possible, rather than wait until you feel unwell. Please note there is no GP/ University Doctor at the Student Support Service.

You can find out about services in your area by contacting the following agencies:

Find a Doctor/ GP

Find a GP near you on the NHS website. Check your local GPs opening times, services and facilities, performance measures, reviews and ratings.

Choose a doctor within walking distance and phone to check if they will take you on as a patient. If you are accepted you will be asked for your name, address, date of birth and for your medical card (if you have one).

Every GP service should have a leaflet which will tell you the surgery hours and types of services offered - e.g. contraception, smears, travel clinics, etc.
