Repeat Prescriptions
With the agreement of your doctor you can get further supplies of regular medicines without having to be seen by a GP every time. We will be happy to have these sent to a local community pharmacy of your choice. Just let us know which Pharmacy you prefer to use.
Please remember to order your medicine in plenty of time and certainly before you run out. When you order a prescription, it will take a minimum of 3 working days for us to process this, and longer if you order it over the weekend. It can take your Community Pharmacy 48 hours to dispense. Your patience and understanding whilst we work to process your request is appreciated.
Requests can be made by telephone by calling the practice and selecting option 3, via Patient Access or by submitting our online repeat prescription request form further down this page.
Using Patient Access to order prescriptions
Patients who have registered to use Patient Access can order repeat items on line using the Patient Access website or app. If you have not yet registered for Patient Access you can sign up to the Patient Access service online
-
The Practice retains the right to remove your ability to order prescriptions online at Patient Access at anytime.
-
The Practice is not responsible for your Patient Access log in details. If you lose your pin number for ordering prescriptions, the Practice can generate a form to create a new one, but it is your responsibility to keep this safe. No account log in details are held by the Practice.
-
Please note, that any requests submitted via the website either for repeat or specially requested medications, are not guaranteed. Special requests for medication previously given but not on your repeat medication list will only be issued where clinically appropriate. Please contact the surgery to request these special items.
-
Please note that even if you receive a message via Patient Access once you have submitted your request that says 'completed' this just means the prescription has been received by the Practice, not that it is ready. The usual timescale of 48 hours applies.
