Prescriptions

You may, of course, still order repeat prescriptions in the usual way - by dropping your repeat prescription slip into the box in the waiting room near reception or by sending it in to us via ordinary mail.

However, we now offer online repeat prescription ordering as an additional service. You need to enter the details of the items that you are requesting, enter details to identify yourself, and enter your email address if you wish to receive an email confirming the details of your request.

If you need to order more items than there are lines available, simply return to the page and enter the additional items as a new order.

The details of your request will be sent to the surgery by email. The receptionist will prepare your prescription for the doctor to check and sign. You need to allow two full working days (excluding weekends and bank holidays) and then you can collect the prescription from the surgery after 13:00 the following day.

Thus if you order now, the collection time will be after 1:00pm Friday 18th of May.

If you would prefer to have your prescription posted to your home address you may leave with the receptionist, in advance, a supply of Stamped Addressed Envelopes and select the option below to indicate that you would like the prescription to be posted using one of these envelopes. Please allow time for delays in the post. If you select that option but do not have any SAE's left at reception then the prescription will be left for you to collect in the usual way.

Alternatively you can elect for one of the following chemists to collect your prescription from the Surgery:-
Asda. Boots Arndale. Boots Grove Road. Boots Langney. Boots Old Town (Waitrose). Boots Pevensey Bay. Boots Sovereign Harbour. Boots Station Parade. Boots Wartling Road. Cavendish Place. Day Lewis Furness Road. Grand. Kamsons Albert Parade. Kamsons Bolton Road (formerly Skinners). Kamsons Milfoil Drive. Kamsons The Triangle (Willingdon). Kamsons Victoria Drive (formerly Otters). Lloyds Hampden Park. Lloyds Polegate. Meads. Newmans. Peels. Seaforth Hailsham & Westham. Tesco.

IMPORTANT We can only accept repeat prescription requests for items which have been previously agreed by the doctor to be suitable for repeat prescription ordering, and for which you have not yet used up all your quota of issues before the doctor needs to review your medication. In these circumstances we shall usually be able to meet your request but sometimes even so there may be reasons why we cannot issue a repeat prescription for some or all of the items. The receptionist will explain when you call to collect the prescription.

IMPORTANT Please read our Privacy Notice regarding handling of the details that you submit via this website.
