The Holt practice had applied to install Pharamabox24 devices outside Blakeney Village Hall and Holt Medical Practice.
If the planning application for the Blakeney Pharmabox24 was denied, Holt Medical Practice announced Blakeney surgery would close "without an alternative local solution in place" for dispensary services.
Blakeney Surgery has been a source of controversy since Holt Medical Practice, which runs the site, announced its closure earlier this year.
