Repeat Prescriptions

All prescriptions ordered will be processed in two working days. 

Please help us by ordering your prescription in plenty of time, especially at weekends and public holiday periods. It remains the patients responsibility to ensure prescriptions are ordered in time. Occasionally the Doctors may ask to see you before issuing further prescriptions; this is to ensure that the medication that you are receiving is still the most appropriate for your needs. Prescription lines are open Monday to Friday 10am till 12pm.

Please utilise our online prescription service EMIS ACCESS as this is the fastest way to process your prescription, below.   

Guide to setting up EMIS Access

Repeat prescriptions can also be ordered via the telephone, at the reception desk or through the postal service. Many thanks for your cooperation in this process. 

Collections

It is the patient’s responsibility to arrange collection of the prescription, and this can be done in the following ways:

• Patient prescription will be collected by the designated Pharmacy. Patient can arrange delivery where a service is offered by a chemist.
• By patient, friend or relative, at GP discretion.
• By post – the patient on this occasion should supply the Practice with stamped self-addressed envelopes. The Practice however cannot take responsibility for the length of time that these take to be delivered.

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner, practice nurse or practice pharmacist at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip.

Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
