Monthly “standing order”: Most of our patients complete the order form for next month when they collect the current month’s prescription. Simply tick the boxes next to the medication you require and hand it to the dispenser before you leave. We will give you a date in 28 days’ time when your next order will be ready. We suggest you make a note of this date so you don’t come to collect your prescription before it is ready!
(Please note: the date printed on the label on each medicine is not the collection date – it shows when we printed your order, which could be up to a week earlier, so please go by the date we give you when you actually collect your medications.)
You can also order by:
- Online: Register with SystmOnline to order your repeat medication or book appointments, ask reception for details.
- Post Complete your order form and post it to the Surgery.
- In person Drop your order into the post box outside the Dispensary, or ask a receptionist or dispenser to take your order verbally.
Email: email address is for medication queries only portesham.dispensary@dorsetgp.nhs.uk
Please order your repeat prescription at least 1 week before you need it (we need time to print the script, order the goods, dispense the order and check it).
