Review titled Flu and Covid vaccination service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 October 2024
I have experienced receiving booster vaccinations at my GPs, at Hawkeye’s Lane and at the Nightingale Unit but my experience yesterday at this pharmacy was extremely poor. Having booked an appointment on line, my husband and I arrived only to find this small shop packed with “walk-in” folk as well as appointment people. Disputes and unrest broke out as to who was next to enter a tiny, messy cupboard for their shots. Staff at the pharmacy counter were not interested in helping organise a queue and simply told us our names would be called. They weren’t. A simple “next” was impatiently shouted out. There was a very casual name check by the lady administering the vaccinations, no introductions and she was not wearing medical attire or a name badge. The blue gloves that she proceeded to put on after drinking her coffee had been previously worn, there was no swabbing or cleaning of the injection sites and no care given afterwards. It was very perfunctory and quite barbaric. An awful experience and not one that should be recommended. A very poor clinic.

Review titled Easy and Quick Appointment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jess McMahon - Posted on 11 October 2024
Booked my appointment online a week before for a Flu & COVID jab, the pharmacy was super clean and all the staff were friendly. The queue was big but the pharmacist administering the jabs was super efficient and got through us quickly. I was happy to note that they offered walk-in appointments between those already booked for those who struggled to book online or didn’t have the facilities to book themselves, a real sense of wanting to help the community this pharmacy belonged too! All together a super easy and laid back experience in a very caring environment
