If you are on long-term medication, you will be given a computerised prescription reordering slip. This allows you to reorder repeat medication without seeing the doctor every time. After a specified number of repeats (usually three or six months), you will be required to see the doctor, nurse or our in-house pharmacist for a review to ensure that all is well before further prescriptions are issued.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused by this, but we feel this policy is essential to good medical practice.
The repeat prescription slip should be handed in to the surgery. Please allow three complete working days before collection, making allowances for weekends and holidays. Alternatively, you can have your medication sent to your nominated pharmacy electronically. We do not take telephone requests for repeat prescriptions as this can lead to mistakes. If you are going on holiday and ordering earlier than you should be, please make a note of this on the bottom of the prescription.
PLEASE DO NOT ASK THE DOCTOR FOR A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION IN THE COURSE OF A CONSULTATION OR A HOME VISIT.
