We are unable to take prescription requests via the surgery phones lines or email.
Please note: You do not need to order your prescription if you are on Repeat Dispensing. The surgery sends this to the pharmacy for you.
Patients who require daily medication may be offered the option of an automatically generated monthly prescription once the doctor is happy that their condition is stabilised. There would then be no need to order your medication - the prescription would be ready to collect as you come to end of your month's supply of tablets.
We can even arrange for the prescription to be sent to one of the local chemists for you.
Help with NHS costs
In England, around 90% of prescription items are dispensed free. This includes exemptions from charging for those on low incomes, such as:
These charges apply in England only. In Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales prescriptions are free of charge.
If you will have to pay for four or more prescription items in three months or more than 14 items in 12 months, you may find it cheaper to buy a PPC.
There is further information about prescription exemptions and fees on the NHS website.
Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see our Practice Pharmacist, doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip.
You may be asked to attend the Practice for blood tests and blood pressure reading.
Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
