Prescriptions

preRepeat Prescriptions

You can register to order your prescriptions online- please come into the Practice with your email address and ID. Regular medication will be put on repeat prescription. Once this is arranged simply put your repeat slip in the box at reception with the items required clearly marked. Your prescription will be ready for collection after 48  WORKING HOURS. If you are unable to call personally into the Practice you can send your slip in by post, with a stamp addressed envelope for the prescription to be returned to you; but please allow extra time for this.

You can organise the collection of your prescriptions with your local chemist, but you must make arrangements with the chemist to facilitate this
