Dispensary
If you live more than a mile from a chemist (as the crow flies) you may have your medication dispensed by us. Dispensing patients should collect their medicines from the Dispensary located just inside the Surgery’s sliding door main entrance.
If you are between the ages of 16 and 60, you will be asked to show proof of any exemption from prescription charges when collecting medication. The law now insists that the Dispenser checks this information.
Repeat Dispensing
If you, or someone you care for, use the same medicines regularly, you may be able to benefit from repeat dispensing from your pharmacist. This means you won't have to visit the surgery every time you need more medicines.
