The first thing I noticed was how clean the shop is. Just what you'd expect from people who care about their business. The staff are friendly and helpful at all times. Service is first-class in all departments. After poor service at other pharmacies, I wouldn't go anywhere but Malcolm's now.

I cant rate this pharmacy highly enough. Malcolm Max, Penny & staff are all so friendly and efficient. They never fail to have items ready and waiting for you. On the odd occasion when Ive needed medication quickly they have arranged things for me. They provide an excellent service 100% of the time and have worked tirelessly over the past year through the Covid pandemic.

Brilliant, brilliant brilliant, I have nothing but praise for this place. They have gone above and beyond for me on several occasions. And when you are not in the best of health that really matters and makes a HUGE difference. Big thanks to all that work there, you're efficiency, friendliness and effort is very much appreciated...
