How Do I....
Obtain A Repeat Prescription?
To request a repeat prescription of a long-term medication, please either use the computerised request slip supplied with your prescription or request on-line. Both these methods are given priority as they are easy to process. If you have lost your request slip or are not registered for on-line services, please put your request in writing, clearly indicating what you need and giving a contact telephone number.
Requests may be:
1) Left with the receptionist (you may post requests through our letterbox if the surgery is closed).
2) Sent by post, enclosing a stamped addressed envelope where appropriate. 
Please allow seven days to cover any postal delays.
3) Faxed on 722 97244
4) Requested via our website for collection at our reception (if you have registered to use the service).
5) We can also arrange repeat dispensing with local chemists. Prescription requests will not be taken over the telephone by our reception staff as mistakes can occur if requests are misunderstood.
6) New patients will need to see a doctor in a non urgent appointment where repeat prescriptions can be discussed before issue.
Collection Of Repeat Prescriptions
Your prescription will be ready for collection after two working days.To collect it you can either:
1) Collect your prescription from the reception desk when the surgery is open.
2) Have it posted to you or a chemist of your choice if you have provided a stamped, addressed envelope.
3) Ask for it to be collected from certain local chemists by pre-arrangement.
Please note that we are not able to fax completed prescriptions. Pharmacists will not accept faxed prescriptions.Please respond to messages on your computerised prescription request slip and book an appointment when your medication review date is due.
THIS FORM BELOW IS CURRENTLY DISABLED - PLEASE USE ONE OF THE ALTERNATIVE METHODS MENTIONED ABOVE TO REQUEST PRESCRIPTIONS.
