We dispense both NHS and private prescriptions, supporting patients from local GP surgeries throughout Lewisham with a professional, efficient service.

We offer a Prescription Collection service within our local community and neighbouring areas.
Simply, let us know what repeat medicines you need, a few days before they run out, in one of the following ways:

In person by calling in at the pharmacy

… and we will arrange to collect the prescription from your Doctor’s surgery, dispense your medicines and have them ready for you to collect from our pharmacy or delivery them to you if you instruct us to do so.
