Prescriptions

Patients should tick the items they want on the right hand repeat side of the prescription and hand or post it to the surgery. This will be processed within 2 working days (48 hrs).

There are a number of options available to make ordering repeat prescriptions as straightforward as possible –

  • By Post – send either the green repeat form (which is attached to your previous prescription) clearly marking which items you require to the surgery address.
  • By hand – send either the green repeat form (which is attached to your previous prescription) clearly marking which items you require and place in the white box on the wall in the reception porch area.
  • Pharmacy Collection – One of the easiest methods to deal with your repeat prescription is for you to ask a local Pharmacy to collect on your behalf. If you would like to arrange for a local Pharmacy to pick up and / or deliver your prescription you should ask them to register for this service. This will save you time as you will no longer have to call to the surgery to drop off and collect your prescription. The Pharmacy will also manage your prescription requests to help alleviate wastage.

We hope that the details outlined above will provide you with an option that suits you.
