(902) 832-0494

Do I need a family doctor to be seen here?

No. As a Community Pharmacy Primary Care Clinic, our pharmacists can assess, treat and prescribe for patients who aren't attached to a doctor or nurse practitioner.

Is there a charge for these services?

Most clinical services are free with a valid Nova Scotia Health Card. A few, including travel vaccines and private pay immunizations, have a fee. Ask us before you book.

Do I need an appointment?

Walk-ins are welcome for most minor ailment visits. Booking ahead is better for medication assessments, chronic condition follow-ups and clinic appointments.

My doctor retired. Can you renew my prescriptions?

Yes. Our pharmacists can renew most ongoing prescriptions. Bring your Health Card and speak with a pharmacist.

How do I transfer my prescriptions to you?

Tell us where you fill them now and what you take. We contact your old pharmacy and move everything over for you, at no cost.
