As demand grew, the pharmacy acquired a second pharmacy on Cromwell Road Grimsby, which then relocated to the Cromwell Road Primary Care Centre, and a third in Hainton Avenue which relocated to Ladysmith Road, Weelsby View Healthcare Centre. We have been dedicated to serving the local community and always trying our utmost to help our patients in any way we can.
