Boots
Community pharmacy
Dorchester's town centre is home to this Boots community pharmacy, serving the local community at DT1 1BQ. The branch is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1030554 and passed its most recent GPhC inspection. As part of one of the UK's most recognisable pharmacy chains, it handles prescription dispensing, stocks a broad range of over-the-counter medicines and can offer general health guidance. That said, what each branch provides can differ, so it is worth getting in touch or visiting to confirm what is available. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. For anyone managing a persistent health condition where standard treatments have fallen short, it is useful to know that medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK since 2018 for certain conditions. Access is through specialist clinics rather than everyday pharmacies.
