The below online form is only available for clients currently registered at the practice, once your request has been received by the team it will be passed to a Veterinary Surgeon to complete.

 All repeat prescriptions including flea and worm medication need 48 hours notice for us to prepare the order for you. 

​

 As the majority of our medications we use at this surgery are Prescription Only Medication Veterinary (POM-V) your pet will need to be registered at this surgery and have been seen within a 3-6 months period by our veterinary surgeons. This is a legal requirement as well as an opportunity to check that the correct dosage of medication is being given.

 

  POM-V Antibiotic, Antiviral & Antiparasitic medication all require for you pet to have been seen by a Veterinary Surgeon for us to dispense and may require a revisit before these can be given to your pet including ongoing conditions. New rules regarding how we dispense these medication came into effect on the 1st September 2023 and is aimed at reducing the risk of antibiotic resistance and environmental effects from these medications.
