How Do I....
Obtain A Repeat Prescription?
Repeat prescriptions will be issued at the doctor’s discretion and are normally for patients on long term treatment. Repeat prescription requests can be made in writing or by calling at the surgery during opening time Monday to Friday. They may also be requested by fax or by the form below. Sorry, but to avoid mistakes, we cannot take requests by phone.
Only items on your repeat prescription list can be ordered this way,
any other requests will not be issued.
We are unable to take orders or issue prescriptions at weekends, public holidays
or out of normal surgery hours. Please allow 48 hours before collection and make allowances for weekends and public holidays. Where possible give exact drug names when ordering. Please enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope if you want us to post your repeat prescription back to you.
Please refer to the information above for prescription requests.
Dispensing
We have provision to dispense to patients who live more than one mile from
a chemist. The Health Service Regulations on this matter are very strict and
this service can only be offered to those patients who register as dispensing
when they join the practice or move house. For further information, please telephone
the surgery and a member of our dispensary staff will be pleased to answer your
enquiries. The practice also offers a delivery service for housebound dispensing
patients, with deliveries on Tuesdays and Fridays.
