The General Osteopathic Council regulates osteopaths in the UK
We work with the public and the osteopathic profession to promote patient safety by setting, maintaining and developing standards of osteopathic practice and conduct.
Check the register
By law osteopaths must be registered with us in order to practise in the UK.
You can search by surname, postcode, town, county, country or registration number.
Why do we need a new CPD scheme?
Read GOsC Chief Executive Tim Walker’s opinion piece in the latest issue of The Osteopath magazine, in which he explains the aims of the new scheme: supporting, engaging and connecting osteopaths to provide good care for patients.
Visit the new CPD scheme website...
...to find out more about the new CPD scheme for osteopaths, launched in October. The first people on the new scheme were those renewing their registration in December and more join each month when they renew their registration.
