    My experience with mortimer pharmacy has been very disappointing and upsetting. The way I have been spoken to today was unexpectable. I have been shouted at, interrupted, it was just so rude. I had to ask the pharmacist to calm down and let me finish what I was trying to explain calmly. There was no help or consideration or alternative for the problem that I was raising, I was just told I was wrong and shut down. I was feeling very ill at the time and was actually throwing up in between calls and I was made to feel like I had inconvenienced their day. I am very prone to Tonsilitis and knew it had come back again as I had all the same symptoms and in actual fact I was told if I got it again I might need to look at having my tonsils out. So I rang my GP who said that I could get some antibiotics today as Mortimer Pharmacy didn’t close until 10pm! I thought it was brilliant! I tried to ring in the afternoon to see if my prescription was there but I couldn't get through. The phone just rang and rang so I rang my GP and asked if it was ready. They confirmed on their system it was with the barcode and the time it had been processed. I can't drive and my fiance's car had broken down so I asked my friend who doesn't live far but took time off work to pick it up for me as I was feeling very unwell. When she got there she was told the prescription wasn't there. So after all that I didn't get the antibiotics I needed that day which was the whole point. I wanted to get it cleared as soon as possible because I'm self employed and I can't afford to miss more work. The next morning I was feeling even worse than I did the day before, so I rang the GP and said the pharmacy hasn't got it. They confirmed on their system that they did and gave me a time it had been processed and the bar code. So off I went back to Mortimer and tried to explain what was going on but I was rudely interrupted and spoken to very unprofessionally making out it was my fault and I had been inconveniencing them. They said they haven't got it and they gave me no alternative. At this point I was actually sick in between calls feeling really unwell. I rang the GP back to see if I could cancel the prescription and if the doctor could do another one and send it to Burghfield pharmacy but when the receptionist tried Mortimer were rejecting the cancellation? So I am still without any antibiotics, lost two days of paid work when if I would have got the antibiotics the day before I probably could have powered through today instead I am upset, feeling really unwell and I have been spoken to so poorly. Whole communication with GP and Pharmacy is a shambles and they seem to be really unprofessional about each other. I will be going much higher with my complaint and hopefully getting some compensation for losing 2 days paid work due to poor communication and pure rudeness with no caring nature at all.

    Great support from the staff. The Pharmacist who advised me was massively helpful and very knowledgeable. I was given medication that I needed and he gave me the correct guidance for taking the medication. A great feeling knowing such professional staff are there if you are in need, 7 days a week. Highly recommended Pharmacy

    I visited the pharmacy on Saturday and was served by a member of staff who was an excellent ambassador for the pharmacy. He listened to my symptoms carefully which was a recurring skin problem and was able to recommend an appropriate treatment which has already made a significant difference. He had excellent customer service skills and had fantastic product knowledge.
