Tesco Pharmacy Pendleton Way, Salford M6 5JG

"I went to speak to a pharmacist to ask advice about a rash I suspected was shingles, as it was the weekend and no GP practice was open. The, who I assume was a pharmacist, took me to the consultation room and rolled a glass over it, to check if it would fade. She told me it wasn't shingles as the rash faded, which "isn't typical for shingles, normally it wouldn't fade". A family member later informed me that you do that kind of test for meningitis, not shingles. Are these pharmacists even trained? I ended up contacting 111 who told me that it was in fact shingles that I had, so as you can imagine her rolling a glass over it for no logical reason whatsoever was very painful. It's not like I expected her to diagnose me but she clearly didn't have a clue what she was talking about. Overall, completely useless and I question the knowledge of the people working there."

"I suspected my son had a ear infection but wasn’t sure if he had scratched the inside of his ear or the blood was from a infection. I rang the pharmacy and asked if they would take a look INSIDE my sons ear in which they said yes. I arrived, described my sons symptoms of pulling ears, really needy and some blood coming from his ear expecting to be taken into the little side room and for him to use a otoscope. NOPE he simply just looked from the other side of the counter and said it looked as though he scratched inside. I trusted my gut and went to ANE in which they prescribed amoxicillin. very poor, lack of care."

"Tesco pharmacy staff always helpful ,but I do feel very sorry for them rushed off there feet short of staff with no prospect of getting more I ask myself why? is tesco'intent on closing it down. if they have a pharmacy they should staff it properly very sorry for the staff who have to bare the brunt from disgruntled customers"

"Says online open till 10.30pm gone over to get my sons antibiotics as he's bad with tonsillitis and they are closed! Manager said there's nothing that can be done as they are short staffed.. shouldn't accept prescriptions if there closed baring in mind I got a text message 2 hours ago saying the prescription was ready I'm currently home looking after the poorly baby so other half has gone after work! Poor service"

"Yesterday afternoon around 3.30 pm I went with my daughter to a Tesco pharmacy in Salford to buy a medicine for my 11 month old grandson who had diarrhea. We asked the girl at the counter what medicine could she give us for the baby, she offered us a laxative! A laxative for a child with diarrhea ?! This girl doesn't understand anything about medicine and I don't know how he works in a pharmacy. Really very disappointed for the effective preparation of this girl, how does she work in the pharmacy? Better move her to the warehouse to put the medicines away! I put a ⭐ because you can't scegliere zero."
