By Post

You can post your prescription slip or written request to us at the Practice

You must include a stamped addressed envelope for return by post if you will not be able to pick up your prescription from the Surgery. Please allow at least seven days if requesting your medication by post.

Dispensary

If you live more than a mile from a chemist (as the crow flies) you may have your medication dispensed by us.  Dispensing patients should collect their medicines from the Dispensary located just inside the Surgery’s sliding door main entrance.

If you are between the ages of 16 and 60, you will be asked to show proof of any exemption from prescription charges when collecting medication. The law now insists that the Dispenser checks this information.

Repeat Dispensing

If you, or someone you care for, use the same medicines regularly, you may be able to benefit from repeat dispensing from your pharmacist.  This means you won't have to visit the surgery every time you need more medicines.
