FAQ
How does Pharmacy First Plus Work
It is really like a mini GP appointment. Our pharmacists have NHS prescription pads and can treat a wide range of acute conditions in the same way GPs do. We communicate the results of your appointment to your GP. Its funded entirely by the NHS.
How can you deliver my prescription free
Dispensing of the prescription is covered by the NHS – however, delviery is not paid for. We offer it free as we have a wide customer base and feel that it is essential to be able to get your medicine at home. We know other pharmacies charge a fee, but we never will.
Why should I get my child vaccinated for Chicken Pox and why isn't it free?
The simple answer is that the NHS has decided not to fund Chicken Pox vaccines – although they are regulated and licensed medicines – there are only so many resources and at the moment the vaccines are quite expensive.
As to why – although not usually life threatening, Chicken Pox is very unpleasant and means days off school/nursery and poses a risk to pregnant women. If enough people get vaccinated against chicken pox, it hopefully will gradually become less prevalent.
What is this consultation for LDN?
We work closely with the LDN Research trust –Â a charity originally set up to promote non-NHS therapies for patients with Multiple Sclerosis and autoimmune disease.Â
LDN is one of the most widely prescribed medicines in autoimmune conditions internationally (also in long covid now), yet as it is being used in an unlicensed way cannot be bought or sold in the usual way.
A full consultation must happen with a specialist before anyone obtains LDN. This is what we offer.
What is hyperbaric Oxygen?
Hyperbaric oxygen is a therapy used most often on the NHS for wound healing.
Since the covid-19 pandemic, it has experienced a resurgence in popularity as it pushes pure oxygen into your body – improving tiredness, and brain fog symptoms often left over after illness.Â
You lie down in a slightly pressurised chamber, watch Netflix, and breath pure oxygen through a mask for an hour. Most people say it leaves them feeling energised and refreshed.Â
It isn’t suitable for everyone, but almost everyone will get a boost of energy afterwards. Our customers are everyone from sports superstars to people with chronic fatigue problems.Â
What is a dosette box
A dosette box is a multi compartment compliance aid – basically all your medicine is laid out MON-SUNDAY in a grid and you do away with having packets everywhere.
Most pharmacies hate making them, so patients often have problems getting anyone to do it for them.
We absolutely love dosette boxes, as we see the massive difference they make to patients – mostly elderly, or a getting a bit forgetful.Â
We have invested in robots to make these dosette boxes – and have 2 centralised hubs – so we have a very high capacity for making them.
Do you do run an online pharmacy?
Although our services can be booked online – and some items are available for sale in an online shop – we are a bricks and mortar pharmacy group.
Everyone works for the NHS providing NHS services in a patient facing way, and you can come visit any of our branches which are open for the full week.
There is no warehouse or little office somewhere selling medicines over the internet – it just isn’t how we operate. We are real people, delivering real services, from traditional and well tested premises – following exacting standard laid out by our regulators.
Do you accept private prescriptions from other doctors?
Yes we absolutely do – we work with hundreds of clinics who send us thousands of prescriptions a year.Â
We offer incredibly good value for money on most things – which is why customers come back to us month after month.Â
Our specialty in the private sector is in weird and wonderful unusual medicines – for conditions where everything the NHS has got to offer has failed.Â
