Please allow two working days between submitting and collecting.

There is a computer-printed counterfoil attached to your prescription which you should use to re-order repeat medication.

Please tick all the items that you need and cross out those that you do not. Then post the list in the box in the reception area or in the post box outside when we are closed.

If you cannot visit the surgery the request may be posted to us, but please allow extra time.

Once received in surgery it may take two working days to process your script. Please do not expect it to be ready sooner.

(This time is needed because it is not always simply a matter of printing and signing a script. We need time to check that you have had appropriate reviews and monitoring to ensure continued safe prescribing). You may find attached to your prescription a note asking you to attend for bloods or to see the nurse or doctor. You should make an appointment at your earliest convenience and ideally before your next repeat prescription is due.

Hospital prescriptions should be presented to the hospital pharmacy and not to surgery.

We are sorry but we cannot accept telephone requests.

The Dispensary

Patients who live more than a mile from the Calverton Shopping Precinct adjacent to the surgery may have their medicines dispensed at the practice dispensary.  (This distance is set by law). The counter is situated in the main ground floor waiting room.

If you are entitled to free prescriptions you will need to bring proof when collecting your medicines.
There is a collection and delivery service for medicines and repeat prescriptions for certain patients to one of the shops in each of the outlying villages. The dispensary can supply you with details.

For non-dispensing patients we can arrange for your prescription to go straight to Burrows and Close in St Wilfrid’s Square which saves you a trip to drop of the prescription request and helps the chemist offer a smoother service with less waiting. If you wish to use this service ask at reception.
