Prescriptions

How will my prescription be issued, and where can I get it dispensed?

Following your consultation, you are likely to be issued with a private prescription and you have the choice as to how you would like this issued and dispensed.

You can either choose to take your prescription to your chosen local pharmacy, or you can use one of our partner pharmacies – Corden Chemist (Kamsons Pharmacy) in Pulborough, West Sussex or Signature Pharmacy online. For a comparison, please see the information below and the attached price list:

Ongoing and repeat prescriptions

If at your Follow-up Consultation you are feeling well and your treatment is working, we can continue to prescribe for you via private prescription or we can ask your GP to consider adding your HRT to your NHS repeat prescription. This will be at your GP’s discretion, as they will have legal responsibility for your treatment.

Private Prescriptions

Your first and second prescriptions are included in the cost of the New Patient Consultation and your first Follow Up Consultation. Thereafter, the cost of producing your annual prescription for HRT is charged at £35*

 The prescription charge covers the costs of the time required from a doctor to prepare the script (which is a legal document), and the administrative staff time to fulfil it.

*This does not include the cost of the HRT itself. If you require a new prescription for something other than HRT, you may be charged an additional £35 prescription charge.

All ongoing private prescriptions must be ordered through our Repeat Prescriptions page. 

As a minimum, to be able to receive continued email support and private prescriptions, you will need to be seen annually for a Follow-up Consultation.

NHS Prescriptions

If your GP is happy to take over prescribing, you may be eligible for free prescriptions.

Most adults have to pay NHS prescription charges and you can either pay per item or sign up to a Prescription Prepayment Certificate (PPC) which saves you money.
