We are happy to receive e-mail requests for repeat prescriptions.

Please note that that e–mail can never be 100% secure. In the unlikely event of e–mail being intercepted before it reaches the surgery, it could be possible for someone to deduce medical diagnoses from the medication requested.

On arrival of your e-mail, we will automatically and immediately send you a simple confirmation that we have received it. You do not need to specifically request a delivery receipt.

Repeat prescription requests should be ready for collection from the surgery after 48hrs (two working days).

If you have made an arrangement with either Moss Chemists or with Lloyds Chemists requesting them to collect and process your prescription on your behalf, then please indicate this in your e-mail.

Please do not use this e-mail address to request an appointment, home visit, medical advice or for any purpose other than to request a repeat prescription.

Please do not send any other medical information about yourself or others. If you have questions regarding your health, then please discuss this with your doctor in person.

If you have any suggestions/comments about The Oaklands Practice, our Web Site, the E-mail Repeat Prescription Service or our E-mail Appointment Cancellation Service then please e-mail us separately.
