Even if you book an appointment, unlike many GP surgeries, Pontprennau Pharmacy doesn’t have waiting times. Visiting us today is faster and easier.
There are also the NHS benefits. By accessing treatment for minor or common conditions through Pontprennau Pharmacy, patients ease the pressure off of GPs and A&E departments. So, it’s not necessary to visit a GP for lower back pain or a cough.
The Pontprennau Pharmacy pharmacists are professionally trained to offer these treatments. Therefore, you don’t need to worry. We won’t hesitate to refer you to A&E or your GP if the need arises. This is one way of ensuring that you feel safe and in the right hands to receive treatment.
