Prescriptions

Ordering repeat prescriptions

The best way to order your medication is by registering with the NHS app or Patient Access. If you would like to register for online services, simply come in to reception with a form of photo ID and we will print off your log in details for you.

If you are taking regular medication we will give you a computer slip listing your medication. When you next require a prescription, mark the items you need then post it in to the red prescriptions box in reception. We can not take prescription requests over the phone.

You can also send it with a stamped addressed envelope.

You can order your prescriptions via our website using the form below.

Alternatively, you can email your prescription request to us at: cmicb-wi.spitalsurgeryprescriptionrequests@nhs.net

Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.
