Online Prescription Ordering

Repeat Prescriptions

If the doctor has agreed that a prescription can be repeated you can order a repeat prescription by ticking the boxes on the right hand side of the prescription form and returning it to the surgery. Forms can be left at reception at the Old Hungate Hospital in working hours or posted through the letterboxes out of hours.

This form also tells you when the doctor needs to see you for review of your treatment. If you have lost your form, replacements are available at reception. 

You may also register for our online services and order via the link at the top of this page.   

Housebound patients may telephone for repeat prescriptions, but we discourage others from doing this as it tends to block the phone lines for urgent problems.

Please allow five working days for prescriptions.

Non-urgent advice: Prescribing and Dispensing

As a dispensing practice we are able to provide medicines to some of our patients. Normally this is people who live more than a mile from a chemist.

Dispensary Opening Times
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 8:00 am to 6:00 pm; Saturday 9:00 am to 10:30 am.

Medication not in stock can normally be obtained within 24 hours.

Medicines can be delivered to the Church Fenton and Ulleskelf Post Offices Wednesday and Friday mornings.

The government requires either that a prescription charge is paid for each item, or the back of the prescription is signed to explain reasons for exemption.
