You can request a repeat prescription by:
- Request a repeat prescription online through the NHS or Patient Access App.
- Completing the right-hand section of your previous prescription form and posting in our prescription box which is situated by the front entrance of the surgery.
- Telephone the surgery on 01782 276999 and our care navigators will send you a online consultation form to request a repeat prescription or alternatively they will request this on your behalf.
Please allow two working days for the practice to process your request and a further five days for your nominated pharmacy to prepare your prescription.
Don’t forget to leave enough time to order your repeat prescription, please order a week before your medication is due.
We are keen to ensure that patients with ongoing medical problems are monitored regularly. If the date for your next review with a doctor or nurse has passed you will be asked to make an appointment.
Medication Queries
Any medication queries must be taken up with the surgery itself. You can do this by calling the surgery on 01782 276999 and speaking to surgery staff. Alternatively, you can fill in the online consultation form.
