Frequently Asked Questions

What is a GMC reference number? A unique 7-digit number the GMC assigns to every doctor registered to practise in the UK. It is the most reliable way to identify a specific doctor.

Does it show licence to practise? Yes. The registration status distinguishes doctors registered with a licence to practise from those without one, which is central to verification.

Can I check GP or specialist status? Yes. Each profile shows whether the doctor is on the GP Register and/or the Specialist Register, with the relevant specialty.

How fresh is the data? Records are read live at run time, so each reflects the register at the moment of the run (see observedAt).
