About

Shoppers Drug Mart at Arthur and Vickers in Thunder Bay, Ontario, is a full-service pharmacy serving patients in the east end of the city and the surrounding P7E postal area. Whether you need a prescription filled, have a minor health concern, or are looking to stay up to date on vaccinations, this location offers a wide range of pharmacy and clinical services designed to make healthcare more accessible day to day.

One of the most practical things about this location is how much you can address in a single visit. The pharmacy team can help with common conditions like urinary tract infections, pink eye, cold sores, skin rashes, and vaginal yeast infections, often without requiring a separate doctor's appointment. If you are dealing with something like strep throat, a glucose check, or a blood pressure reading, those screening and testing services are also available here.

Vaccinations are a significant part of what this pharmacy provides. Patients can receive flu shots, COVID-19 vaccines, shingles vaccinations, and immunizations for hepatitis A, hepatitis B, HPV, meningitis, RSV, pneumonia, tetanus, and yellow fever. For those planning international travel, travel consultation services can help you understand what vaccines or precautions may be relevant for your destination.

Beyond acute care and immunizations, the pharmacy supports longer-term health needs as well. Services include A1C testing for blood sugar monitoring, cholesterol and lipid checkups, smoking cessation support, and reflux and heartburn diet consultations. Patients managing ongoing concerns like sleep disorders, headaches, or muscle pain can also find guidance and appropriate medication support here.

For everyday health issues such as acne, dandruff, nail fungus, insect bites, hemorrhoids, or morning sickness, the team can recommend and dispense treatments suited to your situation. The morning after pill and contraception counselling are also available for patients who need timely, discreet support.

Located on Arthur Street East in Thunder Bay, this Shoppers Drug Mart is a convenient option for patients looking to handle a range of health needs close to home, without the wait times often associated with walk-in clinics or emergency care.

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.
