Please can I also remind patients if they are making a call for a prescription, to ring after 2pm.

Please order your prescription on the NHS app https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/, or use the prescription box in reception or via the e-consult facility via our website https://sunnisidesurgery.webgp.com/

We ask you to order prescription through the above as the surgery is experiencing increased demand and patients who need to contact the practice for urgent medical matters are not able to get through due to prescription requests over the phone. Other practices have removed the telephone prescription line but at present we do not want to do this this but ask for patient co-operation.

Thankyou.
