How It Works
Walk In or Call Ahead
Visit Brampton Village Pharmacy during opening hours. No appointment is required — simply tell the team you'd like a Pharmacy First consultation.
Clinical Assessment
Your pharmacist conducts a structured clinical assessment, asking about your symptoms, duration, and relevant medical history to determine the appropriate treatment pathway.
Treatment or Prescription
Where clinically appropriate, the pharmacist issues a prescription on the spot and can often dispense the medication immediately. If your condition needs a doctor, you'll be referred directly.
Safety Net & Follow-Up
You receive clear written and verbal advice on what to expect, red flag symptoms to watch for, and when to return or seek further care.
