Noticeboard

We are undertaking a major upgrade of our Clinical computer software. Therefore our repeat prescription service will not be available from the 11th October to 1st November 2010.  Please be sure to order your prescriptions well in advance to ensure you have sufficient medication to cover  you over this period.

Prescriptions
As well as being able to order online, you are now able to order your repeat prescription 24 hours a day 7 days a week (including bank holidays), using our automated prescription service.  Just telephone the usual prescription number and follow the prompts. You can also leave a message when the prescription line is busy instead of waiting to speak to a receptionist.  You should still allow 48-hours before collection (excluding weekends and bank holidays).
