About Us
Transform Your Healthcare Experience with Pharmacy First Professional Care for Common Illnesses Without the Wait.
At Aroga Pharmacy, we are proud to participate in the Pharmacy First initiative, an innovative programme by NHS England designed to provide you with professional healthcare advice, treatments, and medicines for common illnesses.
With Pharmacy First, you can get the care you need without the hassle of scheduling a GP appointment or getting a prescription. Instead, you can directly consult our trained pharmacists who will assess your symptoms and provide appropriate guidance and medications.
This initiative ensures that you receive timely and effective care for conditions like sinusitis, sore throat, infected insect bites, and more.
How Pharmacy First Works?
The Pharmacy First scheme allows you to consult with our trained pharmacists who can assess your symptoms, offer guidance, and supply appropriate medications when necessary.
This programme is tailored to address common, self-limiting conditions such as mild infections or allergies, ensuring you receive timely care without overburdening general practitioner services.
