As approved providers for Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines, we deliver immunisations alongside annual flu shots and MMR/DTP vaccinations. Our accredited pharmacists conduct pre-screening questionnaires and post-vaccination monitoring, with records submitted to the Australian Immunisation Register. Services include patient education on side effects and post-vaccination care.
MedsChecks
We offer free annual MedsCheck and Diabetes MedsCheck services for Medicare cardholders. These 15-30 minute consultations review medication management, focusing on compliance and effectiveness. Pharmacists create action plans shared with patients and their GPs, particularly supporting those with chronic conditions or recent medical changes.
Home Delivery
Our home delivery service covers medications and pharmacy essentials within 25km of both locations. Orders placed via the MedAdvisor app or phone receive same-day delivery (by 7pm Wantirna/6pm Glen Huntly) with prepayment required. This service partners with Kings Delivery endorsed by the Pharmacy Guild of Australia.

Led by qualified naturopath Andrea, our consultations provide personalised health plans focusing on dietary and lifestyle changes. Services include short ($15) and extended ($30-$60) sessions addressing individual health needs, with reports documenting recommendations. Suitable for all ages with parental consent for minors.
Weight Management
The CSIRO-developed Impromy program offers structured weight loss with meal plans, weekly support, and in-pharmacy testing.
