Additional Support: We can provide information on ongoing contraceptive methods and refer you to local sexual health services for further support if needed.

One of the key advantages of using our pharmacy services is the convenience—you can access treatment without needing to see your GP first.

This makes visiting your local high street pharmacy a quicker and easier option.

Additionally, using a pharmacy for minor health concerns helps reduce pressure on NHS services, including GP practices and A&E departments. More GPs are now referring patients to pharmacies for minor ailments, meaning you can often save yourself an unnecessary trip to the doctor by coming to us first.
