Community pharmacy
Wigan, Lancashire is home to John Halton, a community pharmacy registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1033944. The pharmacy is owned by Peter Buckley Ltd and passed its most recent GPhC inspection. Community pharmacies of this kind generally handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock a range of over-the-counter medicines and provide basic health advice to local residents. The precise services available can differ from one pharmacy to another, so contacting John Halton directly before visiting is advisable.
