Now, Birmingham... Let's talk Health. I have reviewed my Dentist and my Doctor, but there are a…read morehost of other places in Birmingham which are striving to keep us fighting fit. For my services which are not teeth related, I use the multiple places in Boots. Boots (as you will already know) is a chain pharmacy and beauty store - available in train stations, city centres and most places where you may need to grab a pack of paracetamol or some plasters. This boots, however, offers a whole host of other services you may need for a range of health needs. Upstairs are your beauty counters, hygiene products and gifts (the discount on gifts after christmas is particularly good - offering 50% - 70% off), but on the lower floor are it's other services. If you pop on the escalators and head downstairs you'll find an optician, an NHS walk-in, a doctors surgery, Birmingham Uni dentists and a sexual health clinic. With the doctors surgery and dentist, you will need an appointment. The optician will see walk-ins (depending on how busy they are) and the sexual health clinic and NHS centre are totally walk-in led. This, obviously, can lead to long waiting times - but if you desperately need a doctor and can't get an appointment at your local clinic, this place is a lifesaver (probably quite literally). As well as the various medical services I have mentioned, Boots offers a "stop smoking" clinic and other health led initiatives. When I first moved into Birmingham City Centre I had no idea where my local health services would be (I was dreading having to catch a bus out of town), so for all of those who work or live in the City - this place is your one stop shop for when you're feeling off or need some supplies.

There's also the more seasonal items. Currently there are sunglasses and lotions located towards the back of the store. It's never been overly busy when i've been there even at 5pm on a weekday which is perfect if you want to spend a bit more time browsing. The meal deal is a good price (£3.49 at last check) and it includes a sandwich/wrap, a drink and a snack (up to the value of £1.25 so go for the larger ones!). The service is always quick as there's never really a queue which is great if you're in a rush.

The pharmacy itself has been established for 23 years and offers the latest services and products to patients in the community. Sidhu's also offer a range of prescription services including the collection and delivery of prescriptions. This is the pharmacy my father uses when he comes to pick up his prescription and its fair to say he has not been disappointed with the service and staff at Sidhu's. It is not just medical products that Sidhu's sell. They also offer toiletries, perfumes/deodorant, beauty and hair products, passport style photographs but also a wide range of alternative treatment products. Staff at Sidhu's will offer advice, support and assistance to customers and I have found them to be very friendly when I have required help. This is the pharmacy I tend to visit along with my father despite their being another pharmacy down the road on the High Street.

For a Superdrug store, this store is really impressive and certainly did impress me on my trip to…read moreBirmingham, being a large and modern store in the Bullring. Superdrug is a brand which either has good or terrible stores based on past experiences from Manchester to London, Liverpool to Brighton and across England - but this store offers facilities I've never seen in a Superdrug store before including a salon for women, and a barbers for men - normally they just have a small area of the store for women's beauty as this is a health and beauty retailer as well as a pharmacy, but it catered for men in that department too, offering a dry cut for the low price of £14 which is pretty good for the city centre, I've paid a lot more than that back home in Manchester too! The beverage selection was also pretty large, sadly it didn't have any Lipton drinks (these seem to have been replaced with fuze tea in every branch) or Starbucks beverages (some stores have these) The store, in general, was pretty modern and had a good range of products. Service and the queuing process could have been better as well as ensuring every part of the store was modern and stood out, as if not it just appears to be a little mix and match. 4* - Really good facilities for a Superdrug store in a central location, despite its flaws it is probably my favourite Superdrug store.

Out of the Superdrugs in Birmingham city centre I think this is the best one. The layout is very clear and I always know where everything will be.

I have certainly found that to be the case whenever I have been with my mother to the Chemist. If you are not feeling well and have taken the car, then at least with this Pharmacy you do not need to get out of the car as long as you have got your prescription. That is the beauty of a Pharmacy having a Drive Thru. Carters Green Pharmacy is not different to any other Pharmacy in terms of what it sells. From medicines to tablets these are some things you can purchase at Carters Green Pharmacy. However it also sells household cleaning tools, shower gels, hair gels etc. Nonetheless I did find the hair gels to be on the expensive side.

I've been in there a couple of times needing relief from various ailments and the pharmacist has helped me out and advised me very well even though I'm not on their system. The other bits and pieces they sell, such as toiletries, are very well priced (the mens deodorant is as cheap as any supermarket) and they stock a good range of dental and headache products. There's also an optician in there (see pic - although if you can't you might need to visit them). Finally, on an architectural note, Masters can also be thanked for facelifting the corner of Vicarage and Tat Bank Roads, having been built on the site of a derelict building (as seen on Google Earth).

I have become increasingly concerned as to the suitability of these premises to deliver Covid…read morevaccine. Several people that have received their vaccine here have all said that their arm was not swabbed with an antiseptic wipe prior to the injection. After the injection, again several people advised staff that they felt unwell, either giddy, sudden headache, nausea or all three. In all instances staff advised them to go and sit in their car for 15 minutes as there is nowhere on the premises for patients to sit for 15 minutes after receiving the vaccine. Parking near the premises is very limited with the majority having to park in side streets necessitating a minimum 5 minute walk to their car. Some patients do not drive and walk to and from the premises. No guidance is given as to what should be done if symptoms persist. As the premises have no provision for patients to sit for 15 minutes following vaccination, and therefore are not meeting NHS and government guidelines for the delivery of Covid vaccine, I do not feel the premises are a suitable venue to deliver the vaccine. Is any health agency actually policing the suitability of venues?
