Practice Services — Repeat Prescriptions
You may obtain repeat prescription of certain medicines, once your condition is stable and the doctor is in agreement.
Your notes will be marked for regular review and you will be informed when an appointment is needed to see either the doctor or the nurse.
Your repeat prescriptions can be ordered in various ways:
- you may obtain a ‘repeat’ by simply ticking the box, on the provided order slip, which is on the right hand piece of paper attached to your prescription and placing this in the box in reception. If you enclose a stamped adress envelope we can post the prescrption out to you. please allow at least two days for this service (longer if postal service required)
- several local pharmacies now provide a ‘pick-up and deliver’ service to their loyal customers
- electronic repeat prescriptions: we now offer a new service brought to you by Pharmacy 2u, a local mail order pharmacy. You can register with them to have your repeat prescriptions electronically requested and posted out to an address of your choice. You do not have to come into the surgery if this method is used. For further details you can pick up a leaflet in reception or use the Pharmacy 2u link on our homepage.
We have been advised not to accept repeat prescription requests via the telephone except on our dedicated prescription line -01904 721672-. This is open 8.00 til 12.00 and you can leave your request on voice mail by following the simple instructions.
