You can now view Allergies, Medications and Blood Test results within your medical record, or order your repeat prescription online using either the NHS App or Patient Access. Available 24 hours a day, whether you're at home or work, it's especially useful when the practice is closed or telephone lines are busy. If you currently leave your paper prescription at a local chemist for them to bring to Amherst using this new service is faster and more efficient.
Your prescription will still go back to the chemist of your choice.

Cancel an appointment, enquire about prescriptions, change your address, send in a travel form, make a general enquiry, or advise of your next of kin.
