You can request a repeat prescription by either:
- Requesting a repeat prescription online.
- Ordering through the NHS App on your mobile phone or tablet.
- Email your prescription request to lcccg.hockleyfarmreception@nhs.net
- Tick clearly the items required on the computerised slip and drop this into the surgery.
Please enquire at reception for information regarding any of the above services.
Please allow 72 hours (3 working days) for your prescription to be processed. Please do not ask your GP to issue repeat prescriptions during your valuable consultation time, as clinical time is lost with your Doctor.
Medication reviews
We are keen to ensure that patients with ongoing medical problems are monitored regularly. If the date for your next review with a doctor or nurse has passed you will be asked to make an appointment.
Electronic Prescriptions Service
The Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) gives you the chance to change how your GP sends your prescription to the pharmacy you choose to get your medicines from. You will not have to visit the surgery to pick up your paper prescription. Instead, it will be sent electronically to the pharmacy you choose. You will be able to choose any pharmacy close to where you live or work, reducing waiting times for your repeat prescription. Please ask your pharmacist or collect an application form from the surgery.
