Dispensing Services

The Practice undertakes dispensing of medicines for those patients who live outside the boundaries of Barton and Barrow. Patients are signed up for dispensing services when they register with the Practice or if they move to an address where dispensing services can be provided.

We employ a full team of trained dispensers here at the Central Surgery in Barton and operate a Pharmacy from our Goxhill Surgery. Our opening hours at Barton are Monday to Friday 8.00am to 6.30pm. We are closed on Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays.

We ask that patients call us between 12.00pm to 4.00pm to order their prescriptions over the phone. Patients are still able to order their prescriptions online, by leaving a voicemail and by posting their repeat prescriptions through our letter box which is on the door at the side of the building (in the staff car park).

Our opening hours at Goxhill Pharmacy are Monday to Friday 8.30am to 6.00pm, closed for lunch 1.00pm to 3.00pm, and open 9.00am to 1.00pm on a Saturday.

We aim to process repeat prescriptions within 72 working hours of ordering (excluding weekends and bank holidays) and prescriptions issued directly by the GP are processed whilst you wait. We are now able to arrange a home delivery service for repeat medicines. Please contact the surgery for more information.

If you require medication urgently then please contact a member of the Surgery’s Dispensing team, who can then arrange for this to be dispensed. However, if the urgent medication is required out of hours then the contact number is 111 (Out-of-Hours Centre).
