Repeat Prescriptions
You can order repeat prescriptions in the following ways:
- By Hand - you can either hand the request slip in at reception or put it in our post box situated on our gate.
- Post - post it to us enclosing a stamped addressed envelope.
- Online - order online via the link at the top of this page. You must first register for the service.
- Chemist - take a prescription request to one of our local chemists. See above tab for a list of local outlets.
We need to know the name, strength, dose and quantity of the drug or drugs you require. If you are on regular medication, you will have a computer request slip provided. Please use this whenever possible. Please allow 48 hours, excluding weekends and Bank Holidays, for your request to be processed. Any problems please telephone the surgery.
Please note that we are unable to process telephone requests.
You can also order your repeat prescription at a pharmacy. If you choose to use this service, the pharmacist will bring it to us and collect it, so that you need only collect the medication from the pharmacy. For this service, you should allow 72 hours.
Electronic Prescriptions
We are very pleased to be able to offer the Electronic Prescriptions service to our patients. This means your GP can send your prescription to your pharmacy electronically, saving you having to come to collect your paper prescription. Please click the link for more information: EPS information
Medication Reviews
Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip. Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.
