With competition from veteran chains like Boots, Superdrug or Semi-Chem many have marvelled over…read morethe success of Medicare chemists. However, I have not. My first experience of the chain was within Queen's Student Union where I would gleefully walk in with a full student loan and come out brandishing goods from perfume, tweezers and face packs. I found it difficult to control my purchasing needs when I entered this store as everything was really cheap and scented beautifully. However, I have mastered the art of spending wisely which helps as my nearest store is located on the Ormeau Road just a few minutes from my house. This particular Medicare has much more to offer than the smaller unit in Queen's Student Union as it has a full pharmacy counter to deal with all illnesses and drug prescriptions. Yet, because of its greater range and pharmacy counter this store can be particularly busy so do expect a queue. Same goes if you're planning to purchase something you don't want others to see...could be embarrassing when most residents of the Ormeau Road can see what's in your shopping basket.

Parking can be an issue as it is situated on a very busy street but you could use supervalu car park. Brilliant pharmacy!

Loopland Pharmacy is a small and cluttered little community pharmacy snuggled between a cluster of…read morelocal shops on the Castlereagh road. I've been in before to pick up some hayfever medication and stock up on shampoos and the likes. Although the shop is a little cramped for space and cluttered, they offer some good bargains like toothpaste for 99p and discounted haircare products. They also stock a limited amount of make-up and the usual things you would expect in a pharmacy. Anytime I've been in, the staff were always very helpful and the place always seems to be busy with locals popping in to pick up prescriptions. I'm all for community pharmacies, you really can't compare the advice you get from a community pharmacist who knows their customers as opposed an overworked and burned out chain store pharmacist from Boots or the like who aren't as familiar with the medical history of their customers.

The staff know all their locals very well and will always go to get them their prescriptions and regular products before they even have to ask. This works out for my because my mums a Ceoliac and asking for bread in a chemist makes me look nuts! They sell a lot of products, from beauty to hygiene to house hold cleaning products. They need to make their money from as many things as possible to survive the threat of the big chain stores. It's an old school pharmacist in that people come in and talk to him before they go to the Doctor, and he usually knows exactly what they need for their ailments.

Due to the size they don't have a fantastic range of goods on sale, (it's no Boots), but this doesn't reflect the pharmacy side of things. The staff are friendly and helpful and it is a convenient chemist to nip into, especially if you don't wish to go all the way into town. The only downside I guess is there is no hustle and bustle so when waiting for prescriptions you can be standing in an awkward silence!

Like any other chemist (what's the difference between a Chemist and a Pharmacist? Answers on a postcard...?) it has the obligatory sections offering hygiene, beauty and household products, as well as perfumes, sunglasses and confectionery. I find it weird to see a chemist selling sweets.... Anyway, when I've been in here to fill my own prescriptions the chemist is always very helpful, knows everyone's name and looks after them with individual care; as do the other staff also. The prices for the general items on sale seem quite reasonable too - and you can get a cheap bargain on some products if you keep your eyes peeled and avoid the big spend in the likes of Boots. All in all, a friendly pharmacy who look after their customers.
