Somerford Pharmacy
Community pharmacy
Somerford Pharmacy serves the local community in Christchurch, Dorset, BH23 3QG. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1030552, with Pope Kyrellos Ltd as the registered owner. No GPhC inspection result has been published for this pharmacy at the time of writing. As a community pharmacy, it is part of everyday health care for people in the area, covering things like dispensing prescriptions, supplying over-the-counter medicines and offering general health guidance. The range of services can differ from pharmacy to pharmacy, so it is always sensible to get in touch before visiting to confirm what is available. Contact details and opening hours are listed further down this page. For anyone living with a long-term condition who has found that standard treatments fall short, it is worth knowing that since 2018 doctors in the UK have been able to legally prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions, through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
