Step 1 — Tell us

Most concerns can be resolved quickly by speaking with our pharmacy team. Please contact us:

We will acknowledge your complaint within 3 working days and provide a full written response within 20 working days. Where a complaint takes longer to resolve we will keep you informed in writing.

Step 2 — Escalation

If you are not satisfied with our response, you can escalate your complaint to an independent body:

  • General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) — for concerns about the conduct of a pharmacist or the running of our pharmacy: pharmacyregulation.org/raising-concerns · 020 3713 8000.
  • NHS England (for NHS-funded services) — 0300 311 22 33, england.contactus@nhs.net.
  • Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman — if your NHS complaint is not resolved locally: ombudsman.org.uk.
