Registering with the Health Centre

Your eligibility to register is dependent on your status as a student, staff or local resident.

Students

We register students studying at Imperial, Royal College of Art and Royal College of Music. Registration eligibility is dependent on where you study. Your home address will determine if you are registered as an NHS patient or NHS out of area patient. We do not advise registering with us if you live outside of London.

More details available here.

Students with home post codes starting with one of the following will be registered as an NHS patient.

  • SW1, SW3, SW5, SW6, SW7, SW10
  • W1, W2, W4, W6, W8, W9, W10, W11, W12, W14
  • WC1, WC2
  • N1*, N5, N6, N7
  • NW1, NW3, NW5, NW8

*Not all of N1 is covered by the Health Centre.

If you do not live in one of the postcodes above, you will be registered as an out of area patient, if it is clinically appropriate and practical to do so. We do not offer home visiting or out of hours care to our out of area patients, but you will have access to all of our other services.
