Ordering Repeat Prescriptions

You can order repeat prescriptions with a request slip by:

Placing it in the box at reception
Posting it to the surgery

If you have a nominated pharmacy, you can order repeat prescriptions online using:

Please allow 48 hours (two working days) for prescriptions to be processed and signed before collection. Please remember to reorder your medication early when Bank Holidays are coming up.

If you would like your prescription to be posted back to your home, please enclose a stamped addressed envelope. If using this method, please allow at least one week to allow for postage delays.

You are advised to have your repeat medication reviewed at least every 12 months.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are a new patient to our surgery and you take regular medications, then you must be seen by a GP for your first prescription.

Pharmacy Services

Pharmacists can offer advice on a range of illnesses, such as coughs, colds, sore throats, tummy trouble and aches and pains, and can also give advice about medicines and suggest treatments that do not need a prescription.

Many pharmacies are open until late and at weekends. You do not need an appointment.

Most have a private consultation room where you can discuss issues with a pharmacist.
