Springfield pharmacy Richmond

Hello please can anyone tell me if they have had a postal service from Springfield Pharmacy in Richmond? London.I have an NHS prescription for Liothyronine and I'm finding it hard to find Morningside.

I spoke to this pharmacy by telephone and they tell me it's a 14 £ charge for postal service

is this correct? , are they legitimate. They didnt acknowledge my email when I sent in an image 5 days ago of my prescription when I finally got through to one of their workers. when I telephone the call gets diverted elsewhere?and then I got through to a lady who told me conflicting information today.

I also had a few spam medical calls on my phone number.

could be coincidental but I feel nervous about getting medication from them and posting them my prescriptions.

They didnt seem willing or keen for me to go in person to collect

the items.

thanks for any advice .

if I loose my prescriptions it will be a big problem at my surgery.

as I feel my GP resents me having the T3 anyway.

I gave up with them as their so called customer service was appalling.

I’d try Tollesbury Pharmacy

Yes I've used them twice now as given up trying to find Morningside locally.Yes I was charged £14 odd this time but last time was £8 odd.

They are just a normal high street pharmacy that specialises in thyroid medication. I'm happy to pay whatever if it means I can guarantee getting Morningside.

14£ does seem a lot and they dont allow you to go in and pick them up.

however like you say its worth the money to keep stable with your levels.

Thanks for getting back to me the both of you

certainly feels less lonely having this forum. Being able to ask questions and get support from people who understand what your going through really makes a difference in it all.
