If you are on long-term medication, you will receive a computerised prescription with a tear-off reordering slip attached to the right-hand side. Please retain the reordering slip when you go to the Pharmacist. This allows you to reorder repeat medication without seeing your Doctor every time. Whenever you need another prescription, tick the relevant items on your reordering slip and either put it into the box by Reception or send it to us by post.
We require 48 hours to process and prepare your prescription. Regrettably, it is not practicable for us to take orders for repeat prescriptions over the telephone(we do take prescriptions over the telephone for house bound patients). Certain medications can not be prescribed without seeing your Doctor on each occasion. The Receptionist will advise when this is the case.
After a number of Repeat Prescriptions, you may be invited to see your Doctor to review your case and ensure that all is well before further prescriptions are issued. We require at least 48 hours notice, but giving us more notice would be appreciated. Please note that the prescription line is only open between 10:30am-12:30pm and 2:30pm to 4:30pm.
You can also email the surgery to request your prescriptions for more details and the email address please contact Sandra Watchman.
