HOW DO I...
OBTAIN A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION?

Repeat prescription request can be written and should be placed in the box in the entrance lobby, posted to the surgery or requested by email (See form below). We DO NOT accept telephone requests however, faxed request can be sent to 0870 890 2491.

Most repeat prescription requests should be by the computer-printed form, detached from the previous prescription, which only requires the appropriate item to be ticked. Only items appearing on this preprinted form can be requested.

Please allow TWO FULL WORKING DAYS BEFORE COLLECTION. This allows time for the prescriptions to be printed, checked and signed by a doctor, or provide a stamped self-addressed envelope. Requests for other prescription items will also be subject to this timetable.

All repeat prescriptions should be collected after 5.00pm each day from reception.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT REPEAT PRESCRIPTIONS ARE REQUESTED IN GOOD TIME AND ALWAYS WELL BEFORE THE MEDICATION HAS RUN OUT.
IF, IN EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES, WE AGREE TO ISSUE A PRESCRIPTION ON THE SAME DAY, THIS WILL NOT BE READY FOR COLLECTION UNTIL AFTER 5.00PM.
