Repeat Prescriptions
If you are on long term medication your doctor may authorise you to obtain repeat prescriptions from the surgery. All our repeat prescriptions are on computer and your prescription will come with a tear-off request slip listing the names and doses of your medication. Requests can be made by ticking any item you require and handing in or posting the request to us. Please let us know if there is medication you are no longer taking by indicating this on the repeat order slip. There is also a letter box provided at the front entrance for prescription requests after the surgery has closed. Please allow TWO WORKING DAYS for your prescription to be processed before collection.
Furthermore in response to patient requests we are now trialling
emailed prescription requests. Please make sure they have your full
name, address and of course the medications you require. Send your
email request to 'prescriptions@albionsurgery.com'
If you are unable to get to the surgery to collect your
prescription, you can either arrange with a local chemist to have
your prescription collected and made up OR we can return the
prescription to you by post if you enclose a stamped addressed
envelope. Please note we do not process prescriptions on a Saturday.
In order to avoid potentially dangerous errors we regret that we
cannot take prescription requests over the phone. All requests must
be written.
