Requesting Repeat Prescriptions
Registered for Online Patient Access Services?
Repeat prescriptions are medications which you need to continue on a regular basis, so you are not required to see a doctor every time it is prescribed.
How to Request
Online
Patients can request repeat prescriptions using Patient Access. Patient Access allows you to track progress of your prescription. Patients are strongly advised to use Patient Access; available 24hrs a day.
If you would like to register online via this link or alternatively email the surgery for your unique access code from reception.
Please allow up to 48hrs for your medicine to be ready at your nominated pharmacy.
In Person
Patients on long term medication should keep the right-hand slip that accompanies their previous prescription and tick the correct boxes to re-order. You can then put it in the RED BOX outside of the front door. Booking an appointment will not be necessary for this.Please allow up to 48hrs for your medicines to be ready at the pharmacy.
Please note we do not accept prescription requests sent in via email.
