Helpful Advice and Clear Follow-up

For You, Your Parents, Your Patients

Our in-store health checks support a wide range of people at different stages of life. Whether you’re keeping an eye on your own health, supporting ageing parents, or helping someone manage a chronic condition, our pharmacists offer practical, judgment-free support. It’s a simple way to stay informed between GP visits, especially for those managing medications, monitoring blood pressure or looking to prevent complications before they arise. With flexible service and clear communication, we make it easier to take proactive steps toward better health, for yourself or someone you care for.

Diabetes Medication Review

Managing diabetes requires regular review of your medication and blood glucose control. Our pharmacists can help you stay on track with a personalised medication check, ensuring your treatment remains effective and appropriate. We’ll discuss how you’re managing, answer questions, and flag any issues to your doctor if needed. Reviews are recommended at regular intervals to support long-term health.

Health Check

Our general health checks provide a helpful overview of your wellbeing. These quick in-store assessments can identify early signs of common conditions, such as high blood pressure or elevated stroke risk. Results can support better health decisions, guide conversations with your GP, and help you stay on top of routine care. Ideal for anyone wanting a clearer picture of their current health.

Blood Pressure Check

High blood pressure often has no symptoms, which makes regular monitoring essential, especially for older adults or those managing chronic conditions. Our pharmacists offer quick, painless in-store checks to help you track your numbers and spot any changes early. Results can be recorded for your records or shared with your GP for follow-up care.

Baby Clinic

Our baby health clinic supports parents with personalised care during the early stages of their child’s development. Services may include growth and development checks, feeding advice, and routine immunisation support. Run by experienced pharmacy staff, it’s a helpful way to stay on top of your baby’s health between GP or child health nurse visits.

Stroke Risk Assessment

Our pharmacists can assess your risk factors for stroke, including blood pressure, lifestyle, and medication use. This simple screening helps identify early warning signs and supports prevention through tailored advice or referrals. It’s a proactive step toward protecting your long-term health, especially if you’re managing other conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes.
