Community Pharmacy Patient Questionnaire 2017/18

Every year we undertake an annual patient survey to enable our patients to provide valuable feedback on the services that we provide. The survey, undertaken by all community pharmacies in England, is called the Community Pharmacy Patient Questionnaire. The report of our survey results allows us to identify the areas where we are performing most strongly, the areas for improvement and the actions required to address issues raised by respondents. Our results for 2017/18 are provided here.

Internet Pharmacy

Internet Pharmacy

If you have received a leaflet in the post from an internet pharmacy company bearing the NHS logo, please note that you are under NO OBLIGATION TO RECEIVE YOUR NHS MEDICINES FROM THEM.

Some patients may mistakenly think that their local surgery is promoting their services. This is not the case. 

The US experience of Internet Pharmacies is a stark reminder of possible dangers. Buying medications online is a risky business. According to the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) , 97 percent of the more than 10,900 Internet pharmacies, or 10,573 online drug sellers, reviewed by the board were operating in conflict with pharmacy laws and practice standards.

As your local community pharmacy, we are proud to serve our community and having been doing so for 35 years. Please support your local pharmacy.
