Heath Pharmacy was built in the early 1890s and opened by Clement Fielding. The shop was given to him by his father who decided to set up a chemists for each of his sons (Clement's brother had a shop on Queens Rd that is now closed). Clement was a scientist and botanist. He had a wide reputation for counter prescribing and was successful in his business.
We undertake dispensing of both NHS and private prescriptions. We carry a wide range of medicines in stock along with a smaller range of herbal remedies. Unless otherwise requested by the patient, all tablets and capsules are dispensed in child resistant containers - this does not mean that they are child proof - nothing is!
David qualified as a pharmacist in 1977 and initially managed Heath Pharmacy until 1992 when he became the proprietor. He is a former member of the Local Pharmaceutical Committee, Family Practitioner Committee and the Family Health Services Authority. In his spare time he likes to play squash, tennis and travel.

Just called into the pharmacy, and was immediately reminded why I changed my prescriptions to an online provider! Staff have no customer service skills whatsoever!! That's when they finally get round to the customers waiting that is!

An excellent pharmacy with helpful staff. Completely saved the day when Rosegarth Surgery were impossible to access via phone or calling in. Couldn't manage without them. Thx.

Extremely unhelpful owner of this chemist. Refused for months to provide .medication in dosette boxes, carers and doctor tried as well..And yet their website shows that two of their staff are trained to dispense medication in the boxes!!! and I actually saw one customer being given medication in a dosette box.

It's hard to believe that in this day and age a business believes shutting for lunch is good practice.

Offered good advice. Pharmacist showed concern. Stock a little bit of most things and able to get the missing prescription item by that afternoon. Even attempted to cut my total bill.
