Review titled Super helpful and knowledgeable
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Vikki B - Posted on 08 November 2023
Such helpful staff who didn’t rush me, have been back for more medicine and staff remembered me and gave such good advice as to different medicine to try and different drinks for vitamin c. Thanks for your patience, knowledge and advice, so glad to have you as our local pharmacy. Highly recommend as a first-stop before visiting the surgery and for any health enquiries - and flu and Covid vaccines.

Review titled Great very helpful pharmacy
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Dev - Posted on 30 November 2023
After great frustration with other services who all seem incapable of doing anything right first time, I finally moved over to Shaftesbury pharmacy to prepare my father’s dossette box and the experience was superb. Firstly the pharmacist called me to make sure the prescription was correct (never had a pharmacist be so proactive before) and luckily this identified a few incorrect items in a timely manner allowing them to be rectified before we ran out of medicines. As a consequence everything was delivered accurately on time and it was a complex order. In over a decade dealing with the nhs this is the first time anything has been actioned right first time and I therefore wanted to leave a positive review which truly reflects the high level of customer service this pharmacy provides. If only other nhs services were so efficient we wouldn’t have such a crisis in this country.

Review titled A wonderful vaccination service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Bruce Cheesman - Posted on 06 October 2023
This morning my wife and I went along for our vaccinations. We had the latest Pfizer Covid vaccination and in addition, I had the influenza vaccination. We were greeted just inside the door by the very friendly volunteers who gave us forms to complete, showed us to the waiting area, and very soon afterwards we had the vaccinations. The vaccines were administered very professionally and every detail was checked before they were given. The vaccinators had excellent communication and interpersonal skills. The whole process was very streamlined and I unreservedly this pharmacy for vaccinations and other health services such as prescriptions and medical advice.

I attended for a booster Covid vaccine after being texted. I called and they answered immediately and said I could attend a walk in clinic in the same hour. I was greeted and advised and seen by a friendly individual who gave me the vaccine. Really impressed by the kindness and professionalism! Thank you!

Went with an elderly friend for her Covid vaccine, staff all kind and considerate. Parking outside and chairs with screens to wait inside. They facilitated me to get mine at the same time. Good work.

Review titled Free opportunity for blood pressure check
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Amanda Parker - Posted on 27 April 2023
Last week I took the opportunity to have my blood pressure taken, which is a free service at this pharmacy. It was a bit high, so they suggested I have a monitor attached for 24hrs. I booked this for this week. Again it highlighted some concerns. The results were sent straight to my GP, who have since been in touch. Without this I wouldn't know I had a problem. Thank you.
