Pharmacists do so much more than dispense medicines. They offer expert health advice, help manage long-term conditions, provide vaccinations, and guide you on safe, effective treatments. 💊

This year, let’s celebrate the vital role they play in keeping our communities healthy — often as the first point of care.

Normal Service has resolved, phones and Clinical system are all working.

We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused.

17/09/2025

We are unable to access our clinical system this morning, this means we are unable to see your patient records, or make appointments.

If you have one we will still try and see you, but maybe be limited in what we can do during that appointment.

This also means we will be unable to access our e-consult service until this is resolved, so please call us on our usual number if you have any queries.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and are working hard to resolve this.
