Practice demands unnecessary holiday proof for medication

I am a patient in my seventies who travels abroad for extended periods twice yearly. I require my regular medication to be dispensed before these trips. I contacted the practice on a Monday to arrange my prescription refill, providing considerable advance notice as I do each year without incident. I was informed that I would need to provide documentation verifying my travel plans. I find this requirement frustrating and feel it questions my honesty, forcing me to obtain additional paperwork and make an extra journey to collect my medication once approved. This seems an unnecessary complication. I am disappointed by this approach, particularly as the practice has a clear record of my annual medication needs and should be able to verify my circumstances without requiring further documentation from me.
