🚨 Bank Holiday Reminder 🚨

You need to allow at least 5 WORKING DAYS for your prescription to be available at the pharmacy.

πŸ’Š If you run out of your regular medication, your local pharmacy may be able to provide an emergency supply of most repeat medicines.

Last-minute requests for forgotten prescriptions can place significant pressure on our team and GPs, particularly over bank holiday weekends. Ordering early helps ensure you receive your medication on time and allows us to provide the best possible service to all our patients.

Thank you for your cooperation. 😊
