Repeat Prescriptions: Munro Rx Workflow
The useful answer is not just “repeat prescription phone number.” It is the safe ordering route, timing, what to prepare, and what not to do.
Use online ordering if registered
Use NHS App/SystmOnline-style online services to order repeat medication where enabled.
Use written request if not online
The practice leaflet says a repeat request can be dropped into the foyer box at the main surgery or posted through the letterbox if closed.
Allow processing time
The practice leaflet says to allow 2 full working days, or 3 if forwarding to a pharmacy. Weekends and public holidays do not count.
Do not request repeats by phone
The practice leaflet says prescription requests are not taken over the phone, although online services can be used if you are registered.
Use Electronic Prescription Service carefully
The official prescription page explains choosing a pharmacy/dispenser so prescriptions can be sent electronically to your nominated dispenser.
NHS App, SystmOnline and Online Access
Munro’s online services pages explain that online access can help with repeat prescriptions, appointment tasks and parts of your GP record. The NHS App is useful, but it does not replace urgent-care routes.
Repeat medication
Order repeat prescriptions online if your account is active and the medicine is available for repeat ordering.
Appointments
Online services may allow you to book, check or cancel GP, nurse or other healthcare appointments where enabled.
Record access
Online access may show medication, allergies, vaccinations, previous illnesses, test results and parts of your health record.
Appointments and Same-Day GP Help
Munro’s same-day page says patients who want to be seen on the day should phone the surgery after 8:00am. Same-day access is triaged, so you may be assessed by a Triage Nurse, Advanced Skills Nurse or Advanced Paramedic Practitioner.
| Situation | Route | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Same-day illness | Phone 01775 715 999 after 8:00am. | You will be appointed appropriately for triage/assessment. |
| Want your own GP today | Phone first, but manage expectations. | The practice says you usually cannot directly make a same-day appointment with your own GP. |
| Routine appointment | Use phone, online services or reception where available. | Appointments are generally available through the day Monday-Friday, excluding public/bank holidays. |
| Evening appointment | Use pre-booked enhanced access route. | No normal reception or dispensary service after 6:30pm. |
| Cannot attend | Cancel as soon as possible. | This helps the practice offer the appointment to another patient. |
Pinchbeck Surgery: Satellite Site, Not a Separate Booking Route
Pinchbeck Surgery is listed as a satellite site to Munro Medical Centre. The important rule: all appointments and queries are booked at Munro, and not every appointment is suitable for Pinchbeck.
Address
Pinchbeck Surgery, Church Walk, Pinchbeck, PE11 3RD.
Phone route
Use Munro’s main phone route: 01775 715 999.
Care Navigator decision

Check the catchment/practice area before applying, especially if you are near another Spalding or Pinchbeck practice.
Results, Secretaries and Safe Follow-Up
The official leaflet gives phone-option details for results and secretaries, but because phone systems change, always verify the current menu when you call.
| Need | Leaflet detail | Practical note |
|---|---|---|
| Results | 01775 715999, option 4; leaflet window 13:00-15:00, 13:30-15:00 Wednesdays. | Ask only after the expected result time and after clinical review. |
| Secretaries | 01775 715999, option 5; leaflet window 13:00-15:00, 13:30-15:00 Wednesdays. | Useful for referral/admin follow-up when the practice directs you. |
| Hospital tests | Follow the hospital/clinic that requested the test where appropriate. | GP practice may not have immediate access or responsibility for every hospital result. |
Home Visits: When to Request and What to Prepare
The practice leaflet says home visits should only be requested for people unable to come to the surgery because of serious illness or infirmity, and should be requested before 10:30 if possible.
Home visit may be suitable when
- The patient cannot safely attend because of serious illness or infirmity.
- The triage doctor agrees a visit is necessary.
- You can give clear symptoms, medication and callback details.
Prepare before calling
- Why the patient cannot travel.
- Symptoms and when they started.
- Medication, allergies and recent discharge letters.
- Carer details and best phone number.
Doctors, Care Navigators and Wider Munro Team
Munro’s team page makes one thing clear: not every problem needs a GP. Care Navigators, nurses, paramedic practitioners, pharmacists, physiotherapists, social prescribers and PCN staff may be the right route.
| Team | Useful official detail | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Practice partners/doctors | Official page lists Dr G Wheatley, Nurse Theresa Hare, Dr J Clayton, Dr Marcus Obagunlu and GP training roles. | GP care, training-practice support, complex medical decision-making. |
| Care Navigators | Reception team is trained to prioritise patients based on health needs and treats information confidentially. | Choosing the right appointment route/site. |
| Nursing team | Advanced skills nurses, practice nurses, nurse associates and HCAs support triage clinics and long-term-condition care. | BP, asthma, COPD, diabetes, HRT, contraception, minor illness, blood tests. |
| Paramedic practitioners | Advanced paramedic practitioners can assess undifferentiated/undiagnosed problems and some are independent prescribers. | Same-day and acute assessment where appropriate. |
| Clinical pharmacists | Pharmacists support medicine reviews, long-term conditions and polypharmacy safety. | Medication review, multiple medicines, frailty, care-home medicine issues. |
| Physiotherapists | First Contact Physiotherapists can assess musculoskeletal issues such as back, neck and joint pain. | MSK problems that do not need GP first. |
| Social prescribers | Support non-medical needs such as social groups, carers, finances, wellbeing and confidence-building. | Holistic support where health is affected by life circumstances. |
Chaperone, Accessibility, Behaviour and Privacy

The leaflet notes a wheelchair-accessible reception desk and disabled toilets in the lobby and blue waiting room.
