Oxfordshire Mental Health Information
Registering with a GP
If you are experiencing mental health problems, your first port of call should be your GP. Your GP is your family doctor, the doctor you would normally go to see if you are ill or concerned about your health.
GPs are currently managed by Primary Care Trusts. Registering with a GP can be very important and helpful because they are able to refer people on to a range of more specialist ('secondary') services within the NHS.

If you are homeless, you still have a right to register with a doctor - you can use a 'care of' address, such as a friend or a day centre. You may be offered only a temporary three-month registration however. In Oxford city there is also a drop-in surgery for homeless people:
