| Route | Best for | What to prepare | When not to use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phone 0161 983 0800 | Urgent appointment for today or tomorrow, or if online access is difficult. | Symptoms, duration, medication, urgency, phone number and access needs. | Do not phone routine reception instead of calling 999 for life-threatening symptoms. |
| Online routine request | Non-urgent problems, planned GP help or admin-style clinical requests. | One clear issue, how long it has been happening, what you have tried and availability. | Do not use if you need emergency or very urgent safety advice. |
| NHS account / NHS App | Some appointment, screening, vaccination and online GP tasks where available. | NHS login, current contact details and enough detail for triage. | Do not assume every appointment type is bookable directly without practice review. |
| Patient Services | Online GP-system access for appointments or prescription tasks where enabled. | Login details and accurate request information. | Use phone/111/999 routes if symptoms are urgent or dangerous. |
| Enhanced access | Routine evening/weekend appointment needs where suitable. | Reason for appointment and whether you can attend another participating local GP practice. | Not for emergencies or serious worsening symptoms. |
Good appointment request example: “I am registered with Newbury Green Medical Practice. I need help with _____. It started _____. It is getting better/worse. I take _____. I am worried because _____.

The official prescription page says the easiest ways to order repeat prescriptions are through your NHS account/NHS App, Patient Services, or the listed prescription email route. It also offers a repeat-prescription request form, post and visiting the surgery. The page says repeat prescription requests are not taken over the phone.
NHS account / NHS App
Use NHS account where your repeat medication and dosage are visible, then choose only the items you need.
Patient Services

Nominated pharmacy
You need to choose a pharmacy to collect prescriptions from. You can change your nominated pharmacy through your ordering app/site or at a pharmacy that accepts repeat prescriptions.
Pharmacy help
Local pharmacists can answer medicine questions and advise on minor illnesses such as coughs, colds, sore throats, tummy trouble, aches and pains.
Prescription delay warning: request early, include medicine name, strength, dose, how many days remain and nominated pharmacy. Do not call just to ask if a routine repeat prescription is ready, because the practice says this creates unnecessary phone work.

Old or unused medicines
