Dispensing
We
have provision to dispense to patients who live outside the town boundaries.
The Health Service regulations on this matter are very strict and
this service can only be offered to those patients who register as
dispensing patients when they join the practice or when they move
house. For further information, please telephone the surgery and a
member of our dispensary staff will be pleased to answer your enquiries.
How
Your Pharmacist Can Help
Your pharmacist is there to advise you about medicines, common ailments
and are able to tell you when you need to see a doctor.
If you...

...go and see your pharmacist.
To help your pharmacist help you, keep to the same pharmacy. That
way they will get to know you and you will get to know the pharmacist

Always tell your pharmacist if you are taking other medicines.
If you ask for a medicine, you may be asked a few questions to check
