Home Visits
Your doctor is happy to visit patients at home if their illness is such as to reasonably
prevent them from attending the surgery. However, there are better facilities at the
surgery for examination and treatment. Most ill patients, particularly children, can
travel to the surgery without any harm.
The district nurses will visit if there are blood tests, dressings or other nursing care required for patients
who are house bound. The surgery will arrange a district nurse visit if this is appropriate.
Dispensing
This is a dispensing practice. Patients living more than a mile from a pharmacy can obtain their medicines direct from the surgery.
This excludes most patients living in Four Marks, Alton and Alresford.
Repeat prescriptions
If you are on regular treatment, the doctor will give you a repeat prescription form.
Please allow two full working days to allow for your prescription to be written and
checked and dispensed. Items that we dispense which need to be specially ordered may take a few days.
We accept written requests for repeat prescriptions, preferably using the order form issued with your prescription.
We also take requests over the internet using the form on this Website. Please note that
from 01.01.10 we will not be taking telephone requests for repeat prescriptions as the volume of calls relating to
prescriptions can make it difficult for patients trying to get through to make appointments or needing medical advice.
If any individuals have difficulties with finding a suitable method of ordering, please contact Gill Flynn the
Practice Manager. Please allow a minimum of 48 hours when ordering repeat medication. The doctor will need to see you
at intervals to review your medical condition. This is indicated by REAUTHORISE after an item on your repeat form -
please make an appointment for review when this appears on your form. Thank you.
If you want your prescription to be sent to a particular pharmacy, please mark this on the repeat
request form.
