Our Commitment to Safe Medication Dispensing

Our team of experienced pharmacists is dedicated to ensuring safe and reliable medication dispensing. Under the guidance of our superintendent pharmacist, we implement robust Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and employ state-of-the-art Patient Medical Record (PMR) systems to mitigate any errors, guaranteeing the right drug, strength, and quantity for each prescription. Our recent GPHC inspection affirmed our commitment to maintaining the highest standards in patient safety.

A Comprehensive Range of Healthcare Products and Services

Bensham Pharmacy is your one-stop destination for a wide range of healthcare products and services. We proudly offer most of the current NHS and local services issued in Gateshead, ensuring our patients have access to essential healthcare support. For services not available through standard channels, we have established private solutions to meet specific patient needs. One such service is our highly sought-after Microsuction Ear Wax Removal, which we introduced to address the demand left unmet by local GP Surgeries. Additionally, our extensive retail floor houses an impressive selection of products, from perfumery to electrical items, making us a convenient and well-stocked local pharmacy.
