We offer a dispensing service for patients who live more than a mile from a chemist or we can send this to a chemist for you. It is our policy to dispense or prescribe one month’s supply of medication at a time.

The Consultant Pharmacist in Public Health recommends this policy for Northumberland Care Trust and is supported by the Department of Health.

We offer a home delivery service for patients who may struggle to collect from surgery.
