Medication Reviews

If you are on long-term medication a doctor or nurse practitioner will need to review this at least once a year. The review date can be found on your repeat medication slip. Please help the clinicians keep a check on your condition by contacting the surgery when requested.

Repeat prescriptions take 48 hours to be issued. Any requests received after 12pm will be processed the next working day.

We use the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) at the surgery which means that all prescriptions are sent to the pharmacy of your choice. Please ask at reception or your local pharmacy for more information.

If you are on long-term medication a doctor or nurse practitioner will need to review this at least once a year. However, if you are taking several medications you will need a review every six months. If you are taking the contraceptive pill you need to be seen every six months. We will supply one month’s emergency prescription if you cannot come in but you must make an appointment within that month. The review date can be found on your repeat medication slip. Please help the clinicians keep a check on your condition by contacting the surgery when requested.

Pharmacy services

As qualified healthcare professionals, pharmacists can offer advice on minor illnesses.

They can also advise on medicine that you can buy without a prescription.

Many pharmacies are open until late and at weekends. You do not need an appointment.

Most pharmacies have a private room where you can discuss issues with pharmacy staff.
