Repeat Medication
Prescriptions for medicines taken regularly may be obtained through reception without seeing the doctor if this has been agreed. Requests may be made by letter (please enclose a SAE) or by calling at the surgery. Please allow 24 hours notice to deal with your request. Patients who require a regular supply of drugs may find it cheaper to purchase a pre-payment certificate. Please ask at reception for details.
Should you wish to ask a local Pharmacy to manage your repeat medication for you please speak to the Pharmacy of your choice. Most pharmacies will also deliver the medication to your home.
Sick Certificates
The doctor will provide a certificate for your employers if you have been ill for more than seven days. For shorter periods your employer will provide you with a SC2 self certificate form.
Test Results
The practice nurses have a dedicated time for giving test results. If the patient telephones between 12.30pm and 1.00pm the practice nurse will be available to release results.
