Frequently asked questions

How does the NHS GP practice postcode search work?

Enter a UK postcode and we look up its location, then rank every GP practice we have on file by real straight-line distance from that postcode — nearest first, with a "show more" option to see further results. Useful if you're moving house and need to register with a new practice before you go.

Is this free to use?

Yes — the search is free, with no sign-up and no obligation to buy anything.

Why did my search show results further away than expected?

We always try to show the closest genuine matches, even in areas where coverage is thinner — if nothing was nearby, you'd see nothing useful at all. If the results feel too far, try a more specific or different nearby postcode, or browse the full directory by area instead.

How accurate is the address and phone number shown?

It comes from each nation's public register, refreshed periodically, but details can change — always confirm directly with the practice before visiting, including current opening hours and whether they're accepting new patients.
