PATIENT NOTICES:

REPEAT PRESCRIPTION ORDERING *IMPORTANT*
As of the 1st October 2024 ,Dr Killy & Partners will no longer be accepting ANY email prescription requests. This means our current email whcprescriptions@nhs.net will no longer be active and as such, will be deactivated. We will also NOT be accepting them via our main email account Whcgps.general@nhs.net.
We ask patients continue to sign up and use online service apps (Such as NHS APP/SYSTM ONLINE/AIRMID ETC) As this is the fastest and easier way to order your prescriptions. Alternatively, you can submit paper slip repeat (given by your pharmacist) or handwritten slips in the red box at the surgery.
Please continue to order 7 days or less as the time frame has not changed and we still require 48 hours to turn repeats around, this is due to high demand on the service. The phone line remains open 9am-11am for patients to call and speak to the prescription clerk on 01376 337272 option 3. Please also note we do not take over the phone ordering.
We are notifying patients now as we can appreciate it will take time to get everything in order for patient’s to be able to submit their repeats by a method that suits them best. The NHS app and online services apps are very easy to work and convenient and we will attach further information in due course to help support this transition.
Thank you for your patience in this matter.
Kind regards
Dr Killy & Partners
