Patient Registration Details:

Existing Patients

Please ensure to notify us if you move or change any of your personal details (e.g. address, surname, phone number) so that your records can be updated.   Failure to do so could result in delays or prevent us from contacting you or a relative in an emergency.

Please understand for continuity of care, our patients must register with either Clontarf Family Practice or Fairview Medical Centre, and in doing so hospital reports will go back to the correct practice/doctor.  It will not be possible to go between surgeries for ongoing medical care.

Expansion of Doctor Visit Cards:

The government recently announced the expansion of free GP care to all children under the age of 8 and to households earning below the median income threshold.

Eligible current practice patients can apply in the coming weeks/months refer to dates below.  

Please understand as per the HSE patients are only covered for free doctor consultations from the date the card is issued, otherwise the standard doctors consultation fee applies.  Therefore it is important to apply as soon as applications open up online.

• If your child is aged 6 or 7, you can apply online for a Doctor Visit Card from the 11th of August 2023
• If your household earns below the median income (47,00 per year after deductibles) you can apply online for a Doctor Visit Card.
  The extension of free GP Care will take place in two phases, on September 11th and November 13th
• All GMS/DVC patients for Clontarf Family Practice will be registered on Dr. Claire Noonan’s GMS panel.  However, as all the doctors work together you maybe offered an appointment with any of our practice doctor.  For an ongoing issue it maybe best to re-book with the same doctor for continuity of care.

Patients from the EU

Visitors from EU countries are entitled to emergency care without charge provided they have a European Health Insurance card (EHIC) from their own country, valid at the time of their visit.  Please present your European Health Card at reception before each consultation. This card may only be used for a maximum of 3 months.

Patients from the rest of the world

In many situations your health insurance may reimburse some of the costs involved in your visit to Fairview Medical Centre. A receipt will be provided by our staff at the time of payment, which can then be presented to your insurance company.

If you have difficulties speaking English a translator will be very useful during your consultation with the doctor or nurse.  Please arrange to bring a friend who speaks good English with you to the surgery.
