How to Order Repeat Prescriptions
Patients on long term medication may, with the doctor’s agreement, be able to obtain repeat prescriptions without seeing a doctor.
This can be done in the following ways:
- Online via Patient Access Online Services – if you are not registered for the online services you will need to obtain a password and login from reception first.
Find out how to register - Emailing our Reception Team directly at eastberksccg.gainsboroughreception@nhs.net
- Through the repeat prescription forms attached to the prescription
- By post, providing a stamped addressed envelope for its return
Prescription requests cannot be taken over the phone, so please be careful not to run out of your medications.
We ask for a minimum of 2 working days for the repeat prescription request to be processed.
For some patients, where appropriate, it may be possible for your repeat prescription to be held by a pharmacy of your choice if you are on regular medication where conditions treated by that medication are stable – e.g Blood Pressure tablets. Please ask your GP at your next medication review.
