Serving the local area of Wigan, WN4 0XD, Hollowood Chemists Ltd is a community pharmacy registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1092817. It passed its most recent GPhC inspection, which is a good sign of the standards being kept. Community pharmacies like this one generally handle dispensing prescriptions, provide over-the-counter medicines and offer straightforward health advice to people in the area. That said, services do differ between pharmacies, so it is always worth a quick call before you visit to confirm what is available. Opening hours and contact details are shown further down this page. It is also helpful to know that since 2018 it has been lawful for specialist clinics in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions, though this is not something handled through ordinary community pharmacies.
