Serving the wolds villages since 1997, Wymeswold Pharmacy is an independent pharmacy owned and run by Roger & Marion Kirkbride. Roger first came to the pharmacy as a locum in 2007 and, believing that it had potential, bought it in 2010.
The pharmacy may be small but that doesn’t mean you get any less from it – in fact you get more. All pharmacies provide the same essential NHS services and most provide additional NHS services; many provide repeat prescription management too.
We do all that and more; where else can you get your prescriptions dispensed and have your feet done, get a massage, reflexology and have your ears syringed?

….. and we do cash back.
Repeat prescriptions
Electronic prescriptions mean that we can offer our services to people who use any surgery, wherever it is located. Patients whose GP is in Leicestershire have to order their prescriptions directly from the surgery. They are then sent to us electronically and are available a couple of days after the request has been made.
For patients who use East Leake surgery we can offer a more comprehensive prescription management service.
How it works
For patients who live in Wymeswold, Rempstone, Hoton or Burton on the Wolds and find it difficult to get to the pharmacy we will deliver the prescription to your door
