Can I get my regular pill here?

Yes. Through the NHS Pharmacy Contraception Service, our pharmacist can start or continue your oral contraception, free for eligible patients.

Is the consultation confidential?

Yes, we'll see you privately in our consultation room, and everything is kept strictly confidential.

Do I need to see a GP first?

No. You can come straight to us for both emergency and ongoing contraception.
