NHS Skin Conditions & Infections (PIPs)

20 mins··Free

For simple cases of dry skin and conditions such as ringworm, scabies, athlete's foot or acne, we can treat you using the Common Ailments Service which is much quicker and often doesn't require an appointment. However for more complicated problems our independent prescriber pharmacists can help.

We can assess and treat a extensive number of skin infections including but not limited to:

Shingles
Impetigo
Cellulitis
Abscesses (not dental)
Boils
Infected Eczema
Infected insect bites

In addition to infections we can also help manage a range of more chronic and acute skin conditions such as:

Contact Dermatitis
Scalp Dermatitis
Psoriasis
Rosacea
Hives
Rashes

NHS Sore Throat Test and Treat (6 years and over)

20 mins··Free

The Sore Throat Test and Treat scheme allows patients who have a sore throat to have a consultation with a pharmacist to assess what kind of condition they have. Around 90% of sore throats are caused by a viral infection which will usually get better on its own after a few days. We can advise on appropriate treatments to manage the pain if this is the case.

If, however, we suspect that there may be a bacterial cause to your condition, we can swab the back of the throat and test it. This will reveal whether there is a bacterial infection present and if so, we can supply a course of antibiotics to treat the condition. This service is only available to patients aged 6 years and above.

If you have any questions about this service, please contact the pharmacy.

NHS Urinary Tract Infection Service (16-64 years of age)

20 mins··Free

*FEMALE ONLY SERVICE*

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) affect your urinary tract, including your bladder (cystitis), urethra or kidneys. UTIs may be treated with antibiotics, but they are NOT always needed.

This is an NHS funded service and is available to non-pregnant women aged 16 to 64 and may involve a urine test.

If you have symptoms of a UTI, such as burning pain when urinating, needing to urinate more often or have cloudy urine - you could receive antibiotics without the need for an appointment with your GP. If this is a regular problem, you are diabetic or are post-menopausal you may need to be referred to a GP.

If you are a male, outside the ages of 16-64, have recurrent UTIs, are pregnant, diabetic or think you may have a kidney infection, try this service instead.

Fablass, outstanding service every time. I am Mendus' Biggest Fan.
Why, oh Why, can't my Drs surgery be this courteous, efficient and stress-free ???
Without Mendus local people have to endure medical care akin to the Dark Ages.

Another consultation, another fablass experience of modern medical care. Mendus team you are much appreciated.
