Porter Chemist is a GPhC-registered community pharmacy located in Canterbury, CT2 7AB. It holds registration number 1032656 with the General Pharmaceutical Council. No GPhC inspection result has been published for this pharmacy at the time of writing. As a community pharmacy, it will typically handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock over-the-counter medicines and provide basic health advice. The range of services can differ between pharmacies, so contact Porter Chemist directly to confirm what is available. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018 it has been legal for specialist clinicians in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This happens through dedicated clinics, not community pharmacies.
