Do you know whether your blood pressure is high, low, or within the healthy range? High blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms, but if left unmanaged, it can lead to serious long-term health conditions. That is why we offer a quick and free blood pressure testing service at our pharmacy.
Our staff are trained to carry out fast, easy, and pain-free blood pressure measurements. If your results show that your blood pressure is higher or lower than average, we can provide immediate advice and guidance on the next steps you should take.
Emergency contraceptive pill advice is provided free of charge to patients at our pharmacy.
If you are concerned that your contraception may have failed, or if you have had sex without using contraception, you may wish to use emergency contraception as a precaution to help prevent pregnancy. Emergency contraception is most effective when taken as soon as possible and is recommended within 72 hours of unprotected sex.
Our pharmacy has spacious consultation rooms, ensuring that all discussions with your pharmacist remain private and confidential.
The pharmacist will need to see the person for whom the emergency contraception is intended and will ask a few questions about medical history during a private consultation.
The emergency contraceptive pill may cause side effects such as nausea, dizziness, fatigue, headaches, tender breasts, or abdominal pain. It may also cause your next period to be earlier or later than expected.
If we are unable to help you, we will ensure that you are referred to an appropriate healthcare professional who can provide further assistance.

Our travel clinic is run from within our pharmacy, which has served the local community for many years.
We offer a wide range of travel vaccinations covering travel to various regions around the world. We always aim to make the process as pain-free as possible — that is our promise.
It is important to speak with our pharmacist about your travel requirements at least six weeks before you travel, as some vaccines need to be administered well in advance.
Due to high demand for travel vaccinations, we recommend booking your appointment in advance.
Erectile dysfunction, commonly known as impotence, affects around half of men aged between 40 and 70. If you are experiencing this condition, you are not alone. We understand that it can be frustrating for both those affected and their partners.
We offer a discreet and professional advisory service for erectile dysfunction and, where appropriate, can supply medications.
Our pharmacy has separate consultation rooms, ensuring that any discussion with your pharmacist remains private and confidential. You do not need a prescription from your physician or doctor to access this service. Simply speak to our pharmacist for more information and take the first step in the right direction.
We supply medicines to care services such as residential and nursing care homes, supporting them in achieving their healthcare goals.
Patients in nursing homes often have multiple co-morbidities and therefore take several medicines to manage their conditions appropriately. As a result, the risk of medication administration errors can be higher in these settings. We understand how complex and stressful this process can be for care home staff, which is why we aim to make medication management as simple and stress-free as possible.
At Example Pharmacy, we use advanced technology to help care home staff manage medicines more effectively, reducing the risk of errors to a minimum.
If you have unwanted or expired medicines, whether prescription or over-the-counter, please do not throw them in the bin or flush them down the toilet. Instead, bring your unwanted medicines to our pharmacy for safe disposal. This service is completely free.
Each year, large quantities of unused and expired medicines are thrown away or flushed into toilets and sinks. Although the full impact on the environment and human health is not yet fully understood, evidence suggests that chemicals from prescription and over-the-counter medicines are entering soil, drinking water, and the wider environment.
