Patients looking for help with quitting smoking or managing headaches can speak with a pharmacist as well.

For reproductive and sexual health, services include contraception counselling, the morning after pill, erectile dysfunction support, and vaginal yeast infection treatment. Travel consultation services help patients prepare for trips abroad with appropriate vaccines and health guidance.
