We now offer Pharmacy First Services

Free Covid-19 Tests

The NHS provides treatment for people at risk of serious illness due to COVID-19. However, those who were eligible for lateral flow tests through NHS 111 or gov.uk before November 6th, 2023, can no longer use those routes.

Now, addressing our commitment to community support, Puri Pharmacy is offering free COVID-19 lateral flow tests to eligible patients. As a convenient option, you can simply visit our Southall or Hillingdon branch and pick up a kit.

Check your eligibility

Our service is free for patients aged over 12 years who are at risk of serious illness from COVID-19.

Upon your visit, our pharmacists will confirm your eligibility for the tests through various methods. This includes seeing either your NHS letter or having a discussion with the patient or their representative about the patient’s medical history.

Moreover, it’s convenient for someone else to collect free tests on your behalf – be it a friend, relative, or carer. However, to do so, they need to provide the pharmacy with your details, including your full name, address, date of birth, NHS number, and medical condition(s) to confirm your eligibility. This ensures a seamless and efficient process for accessing the necessary tests.

If you do not have a friend, relative or carer who can do this for you then you may be able to book a volunteer responder.

What our customers say about our services

Amazing service from Rahul. Have used the earwax removal service for over a year and he’s always detailed and professional throughout, making it a calm and relaxed process. My family members always use the earwax removal clinic too. I would highly recommend the service for anyone suffering with earwax buildup – please do get your ears checked regularly for crystal clear hearing 🙂

I was really pleased with the customer service and professionalism carried out by Rahul, he really is a gem.
I had my jab done at this pharmacy, and was happy that I actually had no pain at the time of the jab or afterwards. I would definitely recommend using this pharmacy as the staff are fast, efficient and polite especially Rahul. Thank you Rahul 🙏

Ferhah Ali

Great service and extremely professional staff. Me and my husband just got our vaccines and the whole process was really smooth and stress free. They have thoroughly explained the procedure and the team was absolutely friendly. Keep doing the great work and would highly recommend this place to other people 🙂

Gabriela Apostu

We’re very lucky having a pharmacy locally, with such helpful staff. Being able to telephone or just pop in to request my dad’s prescription means no GP telephone queues do a win/win all round.

Michelle Patis

I regularly visit Puri Pharmacy for my kids prescriptions and thanks to the staff who are very helpful. I never had to wait for long. I recommended others to use this pharmacy for the excellent service. Once they queried my GP about my son’s prescription and got it changed due to previous allergic reaction.

I came into the pharmacy today as I realised this morning that I had run out of my medication and Haven advised me that my prescription had just arrived and sorted it out for me there and then. 5* service from an always happy, helpful member of the team. What more can I ask for?
