Repeat Prescriptions

If you are on regular medication, your doctor may arrange for you to obtain repeat prescriptions.  A computerised slip will be given to you along with your prescription, and you should use this to request future repeat items.  Please either post or hand in your computerised slip to the surgery, or complete the online request below.  

Please allow 48 hours before collection and an extra day or two if you are collecting from a Pharmacy.

  Please make allowances for weekends and public holidays. We are happy for you to collect your prescription from the practice, or post it to you if you include a stamped addressed envelope.  You can also arrange for your chemist to collect it for you.

We also offer an online repeat prescription service by completing the attached form below. Please note that only items on your repeat order form can be obtained by this method. Please state how you are going to collect your prescription.  You can either;
