Excellent service. I had a problem with a prescription medicine which Muirend Pharmacy accepted back for safe disposal. The replacement item was available for collection from their automatic dispensing machine on the same day. The alternative medicine (supplied after consultation) has proved satisfactory.

Staff is nice and helpful. The pharmacy is really small though and they don't always have everything in stock.
