Prescriptions

Request a repeat prescription

Scroll up for quick links

For prescription ordering we recommend that patients download the NHS app. This will allow you to conveniently request medication at a time that suits you. Prescription ordering is also available through SystmOne online via our website, www.giffordssurgery.co.uk or you will be able to order medication using your repeat slip which can be dropped to the allocated prescriptions post box in our Reception area.

Alternatively, your local Pharmacy may be able to help with ordering.

Please note, that we are not able to take requests for medication over the phone.

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.
