The Dispensary

Repeat prescriptions will be issued at the doctor’s discretion and are normally for patients on long-term treatment. We cannot take repeat prescriptions over the telephone as this is against national guidelines supplied by the National Health Executive.

The Dispensary at Fenny Compton is staffed and open from 9.00am – 12 noon and 3.00pm to 5.30pm Monday to Friday, excluding Thursday when it is open 9.00am-1.00pm.

The Dispensary at Shenington is staffed and open from 9.00am – 12 noon Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and on Thursday  9.00am-12.00noon and 3.00pm-5.30pm .

The Telephone lines are open from 10am-12noon and 2pm-5pm on the afternoons that the surgeries are open.

Be prepared to receive reminders to see the Doctor or Nurse to check your condition and drug requirements from time to time.

If you have regular medications and have been stable on them for a number of months please ask dispensary about the ‘yellow card system’ which is designed to make ordering your repeat prescriptions easier.

Please remember you will be required to pay a charge for your prescription, unless exempt. If you are exempt for any reason please show your exemption certificate.
