We cannot accept orders for prescriptions over the telephone. Please use one of the other methods to order your prescription instead.
We need 72 hours (3 working days) notice to prepare repeat prescriptions.
Ways to order
- Via the NHS App
- In person
- Drop a request in the letterbox
- Via an app provided by the pharmacy of your choice
Electronic Prescription Service
We would encourage all patients to have their repeat prescriptions sent to a local pharmacy electronically. There is no need for a paper prescription. It means the patient can order and collect their prescription and then their medication.
The prescription transfers electronically directly to the Pharmacy. This means the patient does not need to call at the Surgery. Patients should contact the care navigators at reception or their chosen Pharmacy for more details and to nominate their chosen Pharmacy.

Questions about your prescription
If you have questions about your medicine or your prescription please contact the surgery.
Your local pharmacists can also answer any questions about your prescription. They can answer questions on medicines you can buy without a prescription.
