The NHS App

Lime Tree Surgery would like to invite you to use the NHS App

The new, simple and secure way to access a range of patient services on your smartphone or tablet.

Use the NHS App to:

get advice about coronavirus – get information about coronavirus and find out what to do if you think you have it
order repeat prescriptions - see your available medicines, request a new repeat prescription and choose a pharmacy for your prescriptions to be sent to
get health advice - search trusted NHS information and advice on hundreds of conditions and treatments, and get instant advice or medical help near you
view your medical record - securely access your GP medical record, to see information like your allergies and your current and past medicines
register your organ donation decision - choose to donate some or all of your organs and check your registered decision
find out how the NHS uses your data - choose if data from your health records is shared for research and planning
view your NHS number

Keeping your data secure

After you download the app, you will need to set up an NHS login and prove who you are. The app then securely connects to information from your GP surgery.

If your device supports fingerprint detection or facial recognition, you can use it to log in to the NHS App each time, instead of using a password and security code.
