What can your Pharmacy do?
All pharmacists train for a minimum of 5 years, in medicine, minor illness and well-being, so therefore can offer clinical advice and over the counter medicines on a range of minor illnesses, such as coughs, colds, sore throat, bowel issues, aches and pains.
They do not require appointments, and have access to private consultation rooms, to help you discuss issues in private. If symptoms suggest it is more serious, pharmacists have the correct training to get you the help/ appointments you need, for example, GPs or nurse etc.
Help take the pressure off the reception and get the help you need faster.
