Prescriptions

You may order your repeat Prescriptions -

• online via patient access (please see below for more details)
• by using the right hand side of your prescription  the right-hand side of the prescription is a tear-off sheet, giving details of all the repeat medication you are on. It is important that you use this slip to order further prescriptions. Tick the items you require and either drop it into the box in reception or hand to the receptionist
• asking your pharmacy to order for you - your pharmacist will order your regular medications for you free of charge
• or by posting your request to us - please send a stamped addressed envelope if you wish us to return it to you

We regret we are unable to take any requests for repeat prescriptions over the telephone, this is for safety reasons.

If you are on regular medications, your Doctor may issue you with a repeat prescription. This will be reviewed annually.

Please allow 48 hours, excluding weekends and Bank Holidays, for your request to be processed
