With GP online services you can use a website or app to:
- order repeat prescriptions online
- view parts of your GP record, including information about medication, allergies, vaccinations, previous illnesses and test results
The service is free and available to everyone who is registered with a GP.
There are a number of different apps or websites that offer these functions. Our patients tend to use either the NHS App or Patient Access, and we have give a brief overview of each of these below, along with links to the service of your choice.
NHS App
- Order prescriptions ✓
- View your records ✓
Comments
- No need to get a PIN number from reception
- Likely to incorporate eConsultations within the App in the relatively near future
- Currently no desktop option. Only an app. NHS England have promised a desktop version “soon”
- Some people have found the sign up process a bit fiddly. Can take around 30 minutes to set up. After that though it should be straightforward with subsequent use.

Comments

You may notice that our online consultation provider has recently changed from E-consult to Blinx Healthcare, however this has not impacted how we process your requests. Please continue to submit online consultations using our new platform and your query will be reviewed the same day.
