For the last few years we have been told to make more use of our pharmacies for minor ailments to save troubling the Doctor.

The report is partly correct in that sometimes they are clustered together, never used to be one in the Folkestone road now there are two almost next door to each other.
I have never seen an under used pharmacy so fail to see how closing some is any good to the public.

Worrying read from this pharmacist regarding the numbers of wrong drugs issued, note that he is under more pressure over two smaller pharmacies nearby closing down.
