Patient Access – Temporary Issue

There is currently a problem with Patient Access (the online system for ordering prescriptions)

You might see a message saying:

“Service disabled – sorry, your GP practice doesn’t offer this service.”

This is a temporary issue affecting all practices nationwide – it’s on the Patient Access side and not something we can resolve at the practice.

In the meantime, you can order your prescriptions using any of the following methods:

🏪 Through your local community pharmacy
📧 Email: fv.dollar-repeats@nhs.scot
☎️ Phone the practice on 01259 742120 and select option 2.

If you placed an order over the weekend and it appeared to go through, don’t worry – we’ve received it and it will be processed as normal. No need to contact us to check.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

As part of the Pharmacy First Plus scheme, many local pharmacists are now able to offer free treatment, including antibiotics, if appropriate, and expert advice for a wide range of health conditions which could avoid the need to visit your GP Practice.
