Pharmacies in Oadby, Leicestershire

“I have to say the level of service from this pharmacy is outstanding. Due to an error from the GP, my medications were not available. However the staff here went out of their way to make sure it was available for me so I didn’t have to go too long without. Thank you, you were too kind today. Extremely polite staff who only want the best for you.”

“Wow, shocked by the negative experiences of others, and the low star rating. Disagree. A very convenient chemist which is open until 8pm at night! It's so convenient to do a late evening shopping trip (without all the busybodies and crowds getting in the way) - and to be able to pick up my medicine whilst I am doing that.

I also once accidentally got switched to the Boots down the road, because they asked if I wanted to be 'nominated' for my medicine, which I didn't understand what that meant, so I just said yes. At that particular Boots store, they almost put it across as, something that would help me get my prescription faster. I didn't realise I was agreeing to permanently switch chemist.

It didn't take long before I switched back to ASDA again. I have ADD, so I need access to my ADD medication without interruption. When the news hit that, ADD medicine was having supply issues, ASDA have no troubles supplying me with that medicine. As soon as I was auto-switched to Boots, Boots kept kept saying there was no medicine, they couldn't get it, giving me IOU slips which I could then never redeem. Literally as soon as I switched back to ASDA pharmacy, I could get me medicine again, as if by magic (even though the short supply of the meds was continuing in the UK)

Yeah, okay I see other comments talking about, how they expect you to remember WHEN you ordered your medication - when actually, no, most of us just remember when to pick it up. Okay guys, fair comment but these very nice ladies are super busy, and it's just one little extra that they ask for. If you can remember literally one extra thing every few weeks to help these guys out, then you're golden. If you can't do that, well, maybe you have bigger issues

So what do you get in return for switching to ASDA pharmacy? Well as stated it's very convenient to pick up your meds whilst doing your shop. The pharmacy is open until 8pm, so you can combine this with your late evening shop for crowd avoidance and optimum efficiency, cutting the time down on your life admin. Also, I personally can categorically state that if you or one of your kids has ADD, these guys can supply the medicine

Is it that they have been less hard-hit by the shortage, due to having generally more storage room (and higher supplies) of medication? Are they just better organised at, getting in there first and getting the meds? Who can say, but what I can say is - ASDA is the superior pharmacy

You may have your pet peeves about being asked to remember a little extra. But when it comes to the ACTUAL reason that you use a pharmacy, which is getting your meds (not social interactions) - these guys come out on top. Fact.”
