PCN Clinical Pharmacists
Clinical pharmacists and pharmacy technicians are experts in medicines and how they are used. We are very fortunate to have a pharmacy team as they can help our doctors and nurses to spend more time with patients while they deal with the majority of medicine-related queries.
Our clinical pharmacists and pharmacy technicians deal with repeat prescriptions, medication reviews, common minor ailments, urgent medication requests and deal with medication for patients recently discharged from hospital. Our GPs may ask our pharmacy team to get in touch with you if you take lots of medications from time to time. This is to review your symptoms and check they’re still the best medications to be on. Where better, newer alternatives are available, they’ll discuss this with you and your GP.
The Team is made up by Pharmacist Technician - Megan Jackson and Clinical Pharmacists - Zainab Ngala, Ravinder Sharma, Aneesa Asif, Amy Penfold and Momema Tahir.
