Why come to High Street Pharmacy for minor conditions?
Convenience is one of the benefits of using High Street Pharmacy since we make it easy for you to access treatment without necessarily seeing your GP. But suppose you do, we don’t have long queues and waiting times compared to the wasted times during a visit to a doctor.
You will be able to access treatment for minor ailments directly from your preferred pharmacy. This eases the pressure incurred by the GP and A&E departments.
Finally, this service is of great help to the GP as they will now be referring more patients with minor illnesses to the pharmacy.
However, you shouldn’t be worried as our pharmacists are clinically qualified and trained to provide these minor treatments. They are also aware of when to refer patients to their doctors, medical personnel or GP.
As part of the NHS Minor Ailments Scheme and the Community Pharmacy Consultation Service, we are eligible to offer these services.
