Report
I have excellent service from this chemist for over 50 years. I have been on repeat prescription most of my life. A few years ago I was prescribed a drug by my own gp and when the pharmacist read the prescription, he rang my GP because he was aware that it reacted with my other medication and he got the prescription changed to one that wouldn't. The doctor had all of my notes in front of him but he hadn't! Had it not been for their diligence I would have been taking something that would be detrimental to my overall health.
