A reminder that from today no prescription requests will be taken by phone. Please see the original post attached below.

To help us improve access to our phone lines and reduce waiting times, we are changing how prescription requests are handled.

From 5 January 2026, we will no longer take prescription requests by telephone. Requests will need to be made online or in writing.

This approach helps reduce the risk of errors and allows our reception team to focus on supporting patients who need to speak to us urgently.

Prescription requests can be made:
- Online via Patient Services - you will have to register for this with the surgery in the first instance.
https://www.patient-services.co.uk/
- In writing, at the surgery or via your pharmacy

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we make this change.

GP surgeries are closed from 1-4 January. If you have a non-urgent health issue over the festive holidays, please wait until your GP surgery reopens or contact a local community pharmacy.

Pharmacies can provide advice, support and treatment for minor ailments such as a cough, cold or sore throat, stomach complaints, or aches and pains. You can check pharmacy opening times at https://tinyurl.com/bdzck4yw

www.nhsinform.scot also offers a quick and easy way to find answers to most common health questions, and includes symptom checkers.

If you think you need A&E, but it’s not life-threatening, call NHS 24 on 111 day or night.

If it’s an emergency, you should call 999 or go to A&E. Please do not attend A&E with a problem that you would normally see your GP with. This will allow A&E to concentrate on patients with emergency conditions.

Some years aren't about achieving milestones or ticking off goals. Some years are simply about survival, about putting one foot in front of the other, about making it through each day. And that takes incredible strength.

If you're grieving, struggling, or just feeling worn down by life's challenges, please know that you're not alone. Getting through difficult times is an achievement in itself, and you deserve to be gentle with yourself.

Remember, we are here if you need support. Find out more via our website: buff.ly/OBfAFRP
