What is the NHS Pharmacy First Programme?
With NHS Pharmacy First, patients in England and Scotland can receive healthcare advice and treatment from their local pharmacy for a variety of common health conditions, freeing up doctors for more complex cases.
The Pharmacy First program is an excellent service that can help people get the healthcare they need quickly and easily. If you have a common condition, reach out to Streatham Pharmacy and see how we can help.
Convenience
You don't need to make an appointment with your doctor to get help for a variety of common conditions.
Accessibility
It is easier to get help at a pharmacy than at a GP surgery since pharmacies are usually open longer hours.
Expertise
Our pharmacists are trained healthcare professionals who can provide advice and treatment for a variety of conditions.
Reduced Pressure on the NHS
With Pharmacy First, GPs can be relieved of some of their workload and patient access to care can be improved.
How Does It Work - 3 Simple Steps
Step 1: Book An Appointment
Using our simple and comprehensive booking system, select the service you'd like a consultation for and enter your details. You can choose whether you want to have the consultation online or in-clinic.
Step 2: The Diagnosis
You'll have a conversation with one of our pharmacists, here you will be able to explain what you're feeling and they will ask you a series of questions to understand your problem.
Step 3: The Treatment
Once you've been seen by one of our pharmacists, they will decide how to best treat your issue. If they feel that the concern at hand needs further investigation, they will refer you to the GP. However, if it's something that we can help treat, we will then provide you with the medication to help you recover quickly.
