Lindsay & Gilmour

This is my regular dispensing Pharmacy for nearly 4 years now. They are close to my GP practise.
They collect recurring medicine slips, they will also try to call you when your medication is available to be picked up.
This is a popular local pharmacy for the community it serves. They have a consultation room and are specialised in the sales of health care products. I prefer them over the general ‘high street’ pharmacies.
Staff are friendly and very helpful.
The Shop floor is at the front and the dispensing chemist at the back of the shop. They have chairs for waiting, but will give you a time you can return to pick things up.
The medicine dispensing time can take a little longer on busy days and sometimes they need to put in additional orders. But this happens not that often.
The building unit they occupy is very old and as I understand has always been used as a pharmacy (since Darwin’s time) — It certainly has history, it is a shame they do not use that a little more within the actual shop setup. It would work very well!

If you read my Boots review, you know that I hate the place. 25 rows of shampoo, 2 for medicine. That’s why a small, family run place like this appeals to me.
Just the basics first, you’ll find everything you would expect from a normal pharmacy. While you usually wait 25 minutes for a prescription from Boots, L&G can usually dispense your medicine in less than 5… on a busy day!
My favourite thing about this and all small pharmacy’s, is that the staff are like mini nurses. They will take the time to talk through your symptoms and can recommend what you should buy, or even when you should see a doctor instead.
They care, so I do. 5 stars.
