We can collect your repeat prescription from Central Surgery, Sawbridgeworth on your behalf so that your medicine is ready to pick up at your convenience. A minimum of 48 hours is required for this service. Please ask for details. This service is unavailable from other surgeries at the present time.

Wide range of over the counter medicines

We stock a wide range of well known products which you can buy, many of which are only available from a pharmacy. Our counter staff are friendly and helpful and you can be confident that they are properly trained using accredited courses so that they can advise you about treating minor common ailments. They may ask some simple questions so they can check that you get the most suitable advice or product. Should it be necessary, they will refer you to the pharmacist.
