Ear Wax Removal ( Microsuction )
Earwax (cerumen) is a natural protective substance produced by ear glands to trap dirt and repel water. However, when earwax becomes impacted or builds up excessively, it can cause distressing symptoms including sudden hearing loss, ear fullness, dull ache, tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ears), itchiness, dizziness, and whistling hearing aids. Microsuction is the clinical gold-standard method for safe, gentle, and effective earwax removal, recommended by NICE guidelines over traditional water irrigation. Using an operating binocular loupe or surgical microscope for high-magnification direct illumination, our certified ear care practitioner uses a medical-grade suction wand to gently vacuum the wax from the ear canal without squirting water against the delicate eardrum. It is completely dry, significantly reduces infection risk, and is safe even for patients with previous perforated eardrums.
Erectile Dysfunction Treatment (Private)
Erectile dysfunction (ED)—the persistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance—affects up to half of all men between the ages of 40 and 70. While often related to stress, fatigue, or anxiety, ED is also an important early vascular marker for underlying cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, or high cholesterol, as penile blood vessels are significantly smaller than coronary arteries. Our confidential Men's Health clinic provides a discreet, professional face-to-face consultation with a male or female clinical pharmacist in a private room. We conduct cardiovascular and blood pressure checks, screen for contraindications, and provide immediate supply of clinically proven PDE5 inhibitors: - Sildenafil (Viagra / generic): Effective within 30–60 minutes, lasting 4–6 hours. - Tadalafil (Cialis / generic): Known as the 'weekend pill', effective within 30 minutes and lasting up to 36 hours, with daily low-dose (2.5mg/5mg) options for spontaneous intimacy. - Vardenafil / Spedra: Fast-acting alternative options.
Hair Loss Treatment (Private)
Male androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) is the most common cause of progressive hair thinning and hair loss in men, affecting up to 50% of men by age 50. It is driven by genetic sensitivity of hair follicles to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a potent androgen derived from testosterone via the 5-alpha reductase enzyme. Over time, DHT causes miniaturization of hair follicles on the crown and temples, resulting in thinner, shorter hairs and eventual follicular dormancy. Our private hair loss clinic provides clinical assessment and supply of evidence-based medical treatments that stop progression and stimulate regrowth: 1. Oral Finasteride 1mg (Propecia / generic): A selective type II 5-alpha reductase inhibitor that reduces scalp DHT levels by up to 70%, halting hair loss in over 85% of men and stimulating visible regrowth in two-thirds. 2. Topical Minoxidil (5% solution or foam): A vasodilator that enhances microcirculation around follicles, extending the anagen (growth) phase of hair. 3. Combined dual-action therapies for maximum hair preservation.
Private Blood Pressure Check
Regular cardiovascular monitoring is one of the most effective preventative health habits. High blood pressure puts extra strain on your heart and blood vessels, often without producing any noticeable symptoms until damage has occurred. Our Private Blood Pressure Check is designed for individuals who are not eligible under the free NHS scheme (such as adults under 40 without a referral or those seeking regular private monitoring). Conducted in a quiet, confidential consultation room using certified electronic oscillometric monitors, the appointment includes dual readings, pulse check, and actionable advice on nutrition, sodium reduction, stress management, and exercise.

NHS Services
NHS COVID-19 Vaccination Service
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Immunity from previous infections and earlier vaccinations naturally wanes over time, and new virus variants continually emerge. Seasonal NHS COVID-19 booster vaccinations significantly bolster neutralizing antibody levels and cellular immunity, reducing the likelihood of severe illness, hospitalization, and post-COVID complications. Our pharmacy participates in the national NHS COVID-19 seasonal campaign, administering the latest MHRA-approved and JCVI-recommended variant-adapted mRNA or protein-based vaccines (such as Pfizer-BioNTech Comirnaty or Moderna Spikevax). The vaccination takes only a few minutes and provides updated protection against circulating variants.
NHS Contraception Service
The NHS Pharmacy Contraception Service is a national NHS-commissioned initiative designed to provide women with rapid, convenient, and confidential access to oral hormonal contraception directly from their community pharmacy without needing a doctor's appointment or prescription fee. Under this service, an accredited pharmacist can both initiate new patients on oral contraception and provide ongoing repeat supplies of either the combined oral contraceptive pill (containing estrogen and progestogen) or the progestogen-only pill (POP or 'mini-pill'). During the private consultation, the pharmacist conducts a medical eligibility check based on the UK Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use (UKMEC), measures your blood pressure and BMI (for combined pill users), discusses pill choices, and reviews drug interactions, missed pill rules, and non-contraceptive benefits.
NHS Flu & COVID Combined Vaccination Service
Catching both influenza and COVID-19 at the same time substantially increases the risk of severe illness, respiratory complications, and hospital admission, especially during the cold winter months when respiratory viruses circulate widely. The NHS Flu & COVID Combined Vaccination Service allows eligible patients to receive both seasonal protective vaccines during a single, convenient pharmacy appointment. Extensive scientific evidence reviewed by the MHRA and JCVI confirms that co-administration of seasonal flu and COVID-19 vaccines is safe, highly effective, and does not compromise the immune response of either vaccine. One injection is typically administered in each upper arm.
NHS Flu Vaccination (Seasonal)
Influenza (flu) is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by flu viruses that infect the nose, throat, and lungs. While mild for many, flu can cause severe complications, hospitalization, and mortality in vulnerable individuals, including elderly adults, pregnant women, and people with underlying health conditions. The seasonal NHS Flu Vaccination Programme provides free protection each autumn/winter using the latest quadrivalent vaccines recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) and UK Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI). The vaccine stimulates your immune system to produce antibodies against the four viral strains predicted to circulate during the winter season. Immunity develops within 10 to 14 days of vaccination.
NHS Free Blood Pressure Check
High blood pressure (hypertension) rarely has noticeable symptoms, which is why it is widely known as a 'silent killer'. If left untreated, persistently elevated blood pressure significantly increases your risk of serious cardiovascular events, including heart attacks, strokes, vascular dementia, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. The NHS Community Pharmacy Blood Pressure Check Service is an official NHS-commissioned clinical initiative based on NICE clinical guideline NG136. During this free appointment, an NHS-accredited pharmacist measures your blood pressure in a private consultation room using a clinically validated, calibrated electronic monitor. If an elevated reading is detected, the pharmacist can immediately offer Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) — wearing a cuff that automatically measures blood pressure over 24 hours during normal daily activities — and coordinate directly with your GP surgery for ongoing management.
NHS Stop Smoking Service
Tobacco smoking is the single leading preventable cause of illness, disability, and premature death in the UK, causing lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart attacks, and strokes. Quitting smoking provides immediate and long-term health benefits: heart rate and blood pressure drop within 20 minutes, carbon monoxide levels in blood halve within 24 hours, and breathing and circulation noticeably improve within weeks. The NHS Community Pharmacy Smoking Cessation Service (SCS) provides evidence-based, confidential behavioral support combined with free or NHS-prescription Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) over a structured 12-week programme. Patients who use NHS pharmacy stop smoking support are three to four times more likely to successfully quit permanently compared to willpower alone. Your dedicated pharmacist advisor tracks your progress, conducts carbon monoxide (CO) breath testing, and tailors dual-product NRT combinations (such as patches plus fast-acting inhalators, lozenges, or sprays).
Pharmacy First
Acute Sinusitis
Sinusitis is inflammation of the air-filled cavities (sinuses) in your face, typically developing after a common cold or flu virus. Symptoms include facial pain, swelling and pressure around the cheeks, eyes or forehead, a blocked or runny nose with green or yellow mucus, reduced sense of smell, sinus headache, toothache, and a high temperature. Under the NHS Pharmacy First clinical pathway, our accredited clinical pharmacist conducts a private face-to-face consultation to examine your symptoms. Most cases of acute sinusitis are viral and resolve within 2 to 3 weeks without antibiotics. Your pharmacist will assess whether your condition is uncomplicated viral, prolonged post-viral, or suggestive of acute bacterial sinusitis (such as symptoms persisting without improvement for 10 or more days, or a 'double-sickening' worsening after initial mild improvement). If clinically indicated under the national NHS protocol, your pharmacist can prescribe high-dose steroid nasal sprays to reduce sinus inflammation or, where strict criteria are met, targeted antibiotics. They will also provide self-care advice including nasal saline irrigation, steam inhalation, and pain relief.
Acute Sore Throat
A sore throat is a painful, tender or scratchy feeling in the throat, most commonly caused by viral infections such as the common cold, flu, laryngitis, or glandular fever. Bacterial infections, predominantly Group A Streptococcus, account for a minority of cases. Symptoms include painful swallowing, a dry scratchy throat, swollen red tonsils (sometimes with white pus spots), swollen tender neck glands, bad breath, mild fever, and a headache. Under the NHS Pharmacy First service, an accredited pharmacist assesses patients using validated clinical scoring systems: FeverPAIN (fever in past 24 hours, purulence on tonsils, attend within 3 days, severely inflamed tonsils, no cough/coryza) or Centor criteria. This clinical triage accurately differentiates self-limiting viral infections from bacterial tonsillitis requiring antibiotic intervention. If clinical criteria are met under the national NHS protocol, your pharmacist can issue NHS-funded targeted antibiotics (such as Phenoxymethylpenicillin) or suggest effective anti-inflammatory throat sprays, pain relief, and self-care strategies.
Earache
Earache is a common, sharp, dull or burning pain in one or both ears. In children and teenagers, the most frequent cause is Acute Otitis Media (AOM), an infection of the middle ear space behind the eardrum that often develops following an upper respiratory cold or viral illness. Symptoms include ear pain, pulling or rubbing the ear (in younger children), fever, irritability, poor feeding, mild hearing loss, or fluid draining from the ear if the eardrum has perforated. Under the NHS Pharmacy First clinical pathway, our clinical pharmacist uses an illuminated otoscope to examine the outer ear canal and the tympanic membrane (eardrum) for signs of bulging, erythema (redness), perforation, or fluid in the middle ear. Most middle ear infections are viral and self-resolve within 3 to 7 days as the Eustachian tube drains. If otoscopy confirms acute otitis media and symptoms meet high-risk or severe criteria under NHS guidelines (or fail to improve with watchful waiting), the pharmacist can prescribe targeted antibiotics or safe pediatric pain relief protocols.
Impetigo
Impetigo is a highly contagious superficial bacterial skin infection, most common in young children but capable of affecting people of any age. It is primarily caused by Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes bacteria entering through minor cuts, grazes, cold sores, or eczema patches. Symptoms typically start with small red sores or blisters, most frequently around the nose and mouth or on hands and forearms. These blisters burst leaving characteristic moist, golden-brown or honey-colored crusty patches that can spread rapidly. Impetigo can be non-bullous (golden crusted, most common) or bullous (larger, fluid-filled painless blisters that persist for several days). Under the NHS Pharmacy First service, an accredited pharmacist evaluates the skin lesions. If impetigo is confirmed, the pharmacist can supply targeted topical antimicrobial ointments (such as Hydrogen Peroxide 1% cream or Fusidic acid) or oral antibiotics (such as Flucloxacillin) for widespread or bullous infections, in accordance with NHS national clinical guidance.
Infected Insect Bite
Insect bites and stings from mosquitoes, midges, horseflies, fleas, bedbugs, wasps, and spiders are common in the UK and abroad. Most bites cause localized itching, redness, and minor swelling that subsides within 24 to 48 hours. However, when the skin barrier is punctured and scratched, secondary bacterial infection (typically Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes cellulitis) can develop. Signs of an infected insect bite include spreading redness and erythema around the bite, marked warmth, swelling, increasing tenderness or throbbing pain, and pus or cloudy fluid weeping from the wound. Under the NHS Pharmacy First service, an accredited pharmacist evaluates the bite. The pharmacist distinguishes normal local inflammatory reactions or histamine responses from true spreading bacterial infections. Where criteria are met, the pharmacist can prescribe NHS oral antibiotics (such as Flucloxacillin, or Clarithromycin/Erythromycin for penicillin-allergic patients) alongside antihistamines and topical creams to soothe itching.
Shingles
Shingles (herpes zoster) is an infection caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus—the same virus that causes chickenpox. After chickenpox, the virus lies dormant in nerve roots and can reactivate decades later, typically triggered by stress, aging, illness, or lowered immunity. Shingles typically affects a specific nerve band (dermatome) on one side of the body or face. Early symptoms include tingling, burning, numbness, or sharp nerve pain in a localized area, followed 1 to 5 days later by a distinctive rash of red spots that develop into fluid-filled blisters that eventually burst and crust over. Under the NHS Pharmacy First service, an accredited pharmacist assesses the rash. If diagnosed within 72 hours of the rash appearing, starting oral antiviral medication (such as Aciclovir or Valaciclovir) significantly reduces the severity, duration of the outbreak, and risk of persistent nerve pain (post-herpetic neuralgia). The pharmacist can supply NHS antivirals directly under the national clinical pathway.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) (Women 16–64)
A lower urinary tract infection (UTI), commonly referred to as cystitis, is an infection of the bladder and urethra, most frequently caused by Escherichia coli bacteria entering through the urethra. UTIs are significantly more common in women due to a shorter urethra located close to the anus. Cardinal symptoms of an uncomplicated lower UTI include dysuria (a burning, stinging pain or scalding sensation when urinating), increased urinary frequency, a constant urgent sensation to pee even with an empty bladder, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, and lower abdominal (suprapubic) discomfort or pelvic pressure. Under the NHS Pharmacy First service, an accredited pharmacist conducts a confidential triage in a private room. The pharmacist checks for diagnostic symptom combinations (such as burning on urination plus urinary urgency in the absence of vaginal discharge). Where clinical criteria are satisfied under the national protocol, the pharmacist can supply a 3-day course of first-line NHS antibiotics (such as Nitrofurantoin) without needing a GP prescription.
