We offer a service to measure your blood sugar levels. We can do this either on an ad hoc basis, where you can walk in and we carry out the measurements, or by prior appointment as part of a planned fasting test. We provide the results within seconds, and provide a written report, that you can take back to your doctor.

We have in-house machines for accurate measurement of Weight, BMI and Blood Pressure and provide a printout as a for your health record.

A Medicines Use Review is a chance for you to sit down and talk to a pharmacist about your medicines. It is an informal chat about your medication. We will advise you about your medicines, what they do, and how you can get the most out of them.
The Medicines use Review is free and will usually last around 10 minutes. It is completely confidential and you and your GP will receive a record of the discussion. Please call us to arrange an appointment.

Smoking is one of the biggest causes of death and illness in the UK. It can lead to cancer, breathing problems and heart disease. We will advise on the options available to you and help make a smoking cessation plan.
