(Please do not order your prescriptions more than 2 weeks before they are due, as these request will not be processed)

Please state clearly on your request your Full Name, Address as well as the Name and Strength of medication

We do not accept prescription requests over the phone, as verbal requests can lead to errors.

(Please note: If you have completely run out of medication and need it urgently for that day, please come to the Surgery. Where possible the prescription will be ready to collect at 6pm if requested before 12 (mid-day). Please do not send e-mails or use online form.)

You can collect your prescription from the surgery 2 full working days after ordering or you can request it to be sent to a local pharmacy. (Please allow an extra day for collection from a phamacy)

Prescriptions Charges and Exemptions

Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).

The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines.  Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.
