PRESCRIPTION REQUESTS OPENING TIMES (Telephone)
There are now 2 ways of ordering your prescription:

The easiest way to order your prescription is via the NHS app - you can download here:
https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/

If you are unable to download the NHS app, you can call our Repeat Prescriptions ordering line on 01793 685065. They are open 9.30am until 3.30pm, Monday to Friday only. You will not be able to order prescriptions outside of these times.
Please have the details of what medication you would like to re-order ready.

We also advise you to order your prescription 7 days before you need it, to allow us time to get the prescription signed and dispensed by the pharmacy.

You can contact your GP practice online, as well as by phone or in person.

An online form – on their website or in the NHS App - is a quick and easy way for you to send your non-urgent symptoms and requests to your GP practice.

Tap it, type it and we’ll take care of it. Find out more ➡️ nhs.uk/GPOnlineForms
