HOW DO I....
OBTAIN A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION?
Patients who need regular repeat medication and have had this approved by their doctor can order a repeat
prescription in the following ways:
- By sending us your computer slip with a stamped addressed envelope and ticking the items required. (Correct
use of this slip is a great help to our staff.)
- By leaving your computer slip at reception after ticking the items required and picking up the
prescription two working days later.
- By faxing details of the items required to us on 0870 890 2529 and picking up the
prescription two working days later.
- By emailing your request to: thegrove@nhs.net. You must put
'prescription request' as the subject
and provide us with details of the items you require along with your name, address and date of
birth. Emails received not containing the right information will not be processed.
Always order your prescription in good time - don't wait until your tablets have gone. We regret that we
do not allow our staff to take prescription requests over the telephone, to avoid the possibility of
dangerous mistakes.
Some chemists will collect your prescription from the surgery for you.
