Noticeboard

If you have symptoms of Covid-19 Do not go to a GP surgery, community pharmacy or hospital. Call 111, stay indoors and avoid close contact with other people 

Further information is available on nhs.uk.

Like the common cold, coronavirus infection usually occurs through close contact with a person with novel coronavirus via cough and sneezes or hand contact. A person can also be infected by touching contaminated surfaces if they do not wash their hands.

Everyone is being reminded to follow Public Health England advice to:

  • Always carry tissues with you and use them to catch your cough or sneeze. Then bin the tissue, and wash your hands, or use a sanitiser gel.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after using public transport. Use a sanitiser gel if soap and water are not available.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
  • Avoid close contact with people who are unwell.

Patient Participation Group - (Currently on hold due to the Covid-19 virus)  

The surgery will be closed for staff training 1 - 6:30 pm on the 2nd Thursday of every month.   When you ring the surgery the answer phone will provide you with the contact number for Bardoc, the Urgent Out of Hours Service. 

What should I do if I fall ill when I’m away from home?

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can ask to be registered as a temporary patient at a nearby GP practice for up to three months. This process allows you to make use of a local practice but still remain a patient of your permanent GP practice at home. However, after three months, if you still wish to access this practice you will be required to permanently register.

If you wish to register with us as a temporary patient simply contact the practice directly.

(If you have not already registered for this service, please call into the Surgery with 2 forms of ID –1.photo and 2.proof of your address)

Click here to email the practice your Prescription Request

Should there be any queries regarding your request you will be contacted to discuss and therefore this may cause a delay in processing your prescription. Please allow 2 working days (48 hours) for your prescription to be actioned.

How do I get my prescription:

Your doctor will usually give you your first prescription which will have 2 parts.  The GREEN slip is the actual prescription which you give to the pharmacist to obtain your medication.  The White side shows the list of drugs that you can order as repeat issues.  Please keep this as you need to order more medication. 

PLEASE NOTE:  REPEAT PRESCRIPTION REQUESTS ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTED BY TELEPHONE

Please refrain from telephoning the surgery for repeat prescriptions as this can block the line used for emergencies.

There are 5 other ways in which you can order a repeat prescription:

Online - complete the online form on the surgery website - see reception for an application form to register for online access.

Post - By sending it to the practice directly. If you require the prescription to be sent back, you should include a stamped self addressed envelope with your request. 

White slip attached to your prescription - Tick the relevant boxes and place your request into the dedicated repeat prescription box in the practice's waiting room.  

Request slip available in reception - Place your request into the dedicated repeat prescription box in the practice's waiting room.  

Pharmacy - Register with your local pharmacy who can request/dispense and deliver your medications.

*It is important that you order your repeat prescription at least 48 hours prior to running out of your medication.


**We cannot accept verbal requests for repeat prescriptions at the Reception Desk. This breaks medical in confidence regulations. However, our receptionists are there to help you so if you do need to order a prescription at the surgery, a receptionist will print out a repeat prescription for you and you can use this to make an official request.
