Pharmacy context
This is an independent retail pharmacy located in central London close to Baker Street station. People who visit the pharmacy usually live or work locally, and some of its customers are tourists. The pharmacy dispenses private and NHS prescriptions, and it sells some over-the-counter medicines and other merchandise. The pharmacy also provides the NHS Pharmacy First service, and it has a private travel clinic.
This was an intelligence-led inspection of the pharmacy following information received by the GPhC and not all the Standards were inspected on this occasion. The pharmacy was inspected in January 2024 when it failed several standards and was made subject to an improvement notice. It was subsequently reinspected in August 2024 when all standards were met.

What do the inspection outcomes mean?
After an inspection each pharmacy receives one overall outcome. This will be either Standards met or Standards not all met
| The pharmacy has met all the standards for registered pharmacies | |
| The pharmacy has not met one or more of the standards for registered pharmacies |
What does 'pharmacy has not met all standards' mean?
When a pharmacy has not met all standards, they are required to complete an improvement action plan, which you can find via a link at the top left of this page. We monitor progress to check the improvements are made and inspect again after six months to make sure the pharmacy is maintaining these improvements. A new report will then be published.
