About

Shoppers Drug Mart at Kennedy and Denison is a full-service pharmacy located at 1661 Denison Street in Markham, Ontario, serving the L3R community and surrounding neighbourhoods. Whether you are picking up a prescription or looking for guidance on a minor health concern, the pharmacy team here is set up to help with a wide range of everyday health needs.

One of the more practical things about this location is how much can be handled in a single visit. Patients can get vaccinations including flu shots, COVID-19 vaccines, shingles, hepatitis A and B, HPV, pneumonia, meningitis, RSV, tetanus, and yellow fever assessment for travel. If you are planning a trip abroad, a travel health consultation can help you understand which vaccines or precautions make sense for your destination.

The pharmacy also offers minor ailment services, which means you can get assessment and treatment for common conditions without needing a separate doctor's appointment. Things like urinary tract infections, strep throat testing, pink eye, skin rashes, cold sores, and vaginal yeast infections can often be addressed right here. For someone dealing with a UTI on a Friday afternoon, being able to walk in and speak with a pharmacist rather than waiting for a clinic appointment can make a real difference.

Beyond acute concerns, there are ongoing health monitoring services available too. Blood pressure testing, glucose and blood sugar checks, A1C testing, and cholesterol screenings give patients a convenient way to keep an eye on important health markers. Smoking cessation support, sleep disorder guidance, and reflux or heartburn diet consultations round out a more wellness-focused side of what the pharmacy provides.

Skin and dermatology-related concerns such as acne, eczema, nail fungus, ringworm, and dandruff are also within scope, as are allergy services, erectile dysfunction, contraception counselling, and the morning after pill. The range of services here reflects how much a community pharmacy can genuinely support day-to-day health, often with shorter wait times and easier access than other care settings. This Markham location is operational and worth keeping in mind as a first stop for many common health questions.

Services Offered

Services

A1C Test

The A1C (HbA1c) test is a blood test that helps estimate average blood sugar levels over the past 2–3 months. This service provides access to A1C testing for diabetes screening and monitoring, based on clinical need and risk factors.

You’ll receive guidance on how to prepare (if any preparation is required), what your result indicates, and recommended next steps. If results suggest prediabetes or diabetes, you’ll be directed to appropriate follow-up care and management resources.

Acne Treatment

Medical procedures or therapies to reduce or eliminate acne.

Allergy Services

Diagnosis and management of allergic conditions.

Athletes Foot

Athlete’s foot is a common fungal infection that affects the skin of the feet, often causing itching, scaling, cracking, or burning between the toes. This service provides an assessment to confirm whether symptoms are consistent with athlete’s foot versus other causes of foot rash.

If appropriate, you’ll receive treatment recommendations such as antifungal options and practical self-care steps to improve comfort and reduce spread. You’ll also get guidance on hygiene and prevention to help lower the chance of recurrence.

Blood Pressure Testing

A procedure to measure the force of blood against artery walls, used to diagnose and monitor hypertension.

Canker Sores

Canker sores are small, painful ulcers inside the mouth that can make eating and speaking uncomfortable. This service offers an assessment to confirm that the sores fit typical canker sore patterns and to rule out other causes that may need different care.

You’ll receive recommendations for pain relief and mouth care, along with advice on common triggers and how to support healing. If symptoms are severe, recurrent, or atypical, you’ll be guided on next steps and appropriate follow-up.
