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
