We accept patients from the area shown in the map opposite but with the new change of boundary cut off being past Sandbank. 

All patients residing in Benmore, Kilmun, Strone, Blairmore and Ardentinny are required to register with Riverbank Surgery, Kilmun.

To register permanently, you’ll need to complete a registration form. You can either:

• Fill out an online registration form
• Download a registration form, complete it, and then email it to the GP practice

When you register with us, it’s recommended that you provide information to confirm your:

• identity
• address

Anybody in Scotland can access primary care services at a GP practice without charge. 

All new patients will be given an appointment with the practice nurse for a brief examination including a urine check.  Please provide ID if possible at the time of this appointment.

Information will be requested on previous health and immunisations.  Advice will be offered on diet, exercise and smoking cessation. 

You can only register with a GP practice if you’re staying in the area for more than 3 months. If you’re not, you may still be treated but as a Temporary Resident.

You can also use the Access to Healthcare. This is a GP registration card to help you register with a GP Practice. The card gives information on your rights to accessing healthcare. You can find the card on the Health Literacy Place website.

For more information on being treated as a Temporary Resident please contact your nearest GP practice.

As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.

To requests proxy access, please collect a proxy access form from reception from 9am to 5pm.

From 1st April 2015, practices are required to allocate all patients (including children) with a named accountable GP.

The named GP is responsible for the coordination and delivery of all appropriate services, where required based on clinical judgement, to each of their patients.

• Patients do not need to see their named GP when they book an appointment with the practice.
• Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice.
