Hello!
I want to see a GP to get a prescription drug (nothing major, a steroid inhaler).
Where can I do that? There seem to be various services and I don't know which to choose.
I need a prescription asap.

Do you want to contact him at one of the London cafes you were enquiring about ? Or are you in Basildon ? or Jersey?

Ring 111 and ask them.

Is this a medication you've been prescribed before?
When we went on holiday without DH's medications, I rang 111 and they sorted it all out with a pharmacy local to where we were. We just had to go and collect the drugs from the pharmacy (I think that they issued two weeks' worth as a short-term supply). This was on a Saturday, so no access to a GP.0 -
Alternatively - like other people - you ring your doctor's surgery on Monday morning and when you eventually get to a human being and offered an appointment in 3 weeks time.Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0

Pop to your regular chemist, where you normally get your prescription filled, ask if they can sort you one out whilst you wait for your GP prescription.Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.0

Use one of the online services. Google for more information.0

Call 111. They will likely prescribe it if you’ve had it before. However if it’s a new medication you will likely need to be seen face to face or will be directed back to your own GP.
Alternatively there are online services available0 -
OP, try pushdoctor. Used them a few times before and never had any issues. There's a £30 per appointment charge but you can't really expect them to provide the service for free. Oh and you'll need a smartphone.
