Hi, I’m Ben, the co-owner and the pharmacist at Carnforth Pharmacy.

My vision for the pharmacy is to develop each of our staff to their full potential so that we can use our individual and collective skills to promote healthy living and support the needs of our community. To help make this a reality we use also cutting edge technology to give you the best service and ensure your safety.

Booked an appointment by email and phone for a yellow fever vaccination. All went very smoothly and had questions answered before attending. Appointment included a private consultation to go through advice on travel wellbeing and covered any risks of having the vaccine. Was very thorough and informative - would highly recommend.

The team at Carnforth Pharmacy are very welcoming, friendly and approachable. They are extremely professional and have been very helpful helping to to resolve a medication issue. I am also really pleased that they are looking at what they can do to be an environmentally friendly business and its brilliant that pill packs can be recycled there! The pharmacy is immaculately clean and well organised. Great asset to the local community.

I have had two flu vaccinations at this pharmacy. They are the best vaccinations I have ever had - hardly felt anything at all. This pharmacy offers a polite, very helpful and obliging service despite the pressures of the covid 19 pandemic. Will always use in the future.
