- You can also send for your prescription by post and if you include a stamped addressed envelope we will return it to you.
The receptionist will prepare your prescription for the doctor to check and sign. Please allow 48 working hours (excluding weekends & Bank Holidays) for your prescription to be processed, then you will be able to collect the prescription from either the surgery or your nominated Pharmacy.
Nominate a Pharmacy
When you request a prescription online, you can have your prescription sent electronically to a pharmacy of your choice. This is called choosing a pharmacy (it’s also known as nominating a pharmacy).
Once you choose a pharmacy:
- you’ll no longer need to collect paper prescriptions from your GP surgery
- your chosen pharmacy will receive your prescriptions until you change or remove it
You can choose a local pharmacy by using the NHS App or logging in to the NHS website using a web browser. You collect your prescriptions in person from a local pharmacy. They may also deliver to your home, you would need to speak with the Pharmacy about this.

Important
We can only accept repeat prescription requests for items which have been previously agreed by the doctor to be suitable for repeat ordering and for which you have not yet used up all your quota of issues before the doctor needs to review your medication. In these circumstances we shall usually be able to meet your request but sometimes even so there may be reasons why we cannot issue a repeat prescription for some or all of the items. The receptionist will explain when you call to collect the prescription.
Medication Reviews
Patients on repeat medication will be asked to speak with a Clinician at least once a year to review these regular medications. A notification should appear on your repeat slip. Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
