🔷 Patient Notice 🔷

As it takes at least 7 days for prescriptions to be ready from when they are ordered with the surgery, please make sure you allow enough time before you are about to run out.

Also, we only keep prescriptions for 3 weeks once made up before we return them as uncollected to the surgery. We do not have enough space to keep them for any longer.
If you have received your text message, or it has been 9 days since you ordered your prescription then please call in to collect.

Many thanks,

Team Cefn Mawr
