How Do I....
Obtain A Repeat Prescription?
Repeat prescriptions will be issued at the doctor’s discretion and are normally for patients who are on long-term treatment. Requests for prescriptions can be made by telephone, in writing, via the form below or by calling at the Surgery from 8.00 a.m. to 6.30 p.m. Monday to Friday. We are unable to take orders for repeat prescriptions at weekends, public holidays or out or 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.
If someone collects your prescription for you they will need to know your full name, address and date of birth otherwise we are unable to give them your medication. This is in the interest of patient safety.
Dispensing
We have provision to dispense to patients who live outside the town boundaries. The Health Service Regulations on this are very strict and this service can only be offered to those patients who register as
dispensing when they join the practice or when they move house. For further information please telephone the surgery and a member of our dispensing staff will be pleased to answer your enquiries.
