About

Shoppers Drug Mart at Highland Park S.C. is a full-service pharmacy located at 563 Highland Road West in Kitchener, Ontario, serving the N2M community and surrounding west-end neighbourhoods. Whether you need a routine prescription filled or have a minor health concern you want addressed quickly, this location offers a wide range of pharmacy and health services under one roof.

One of the things patients appreciate most is the breadth of clinical services available without needing a separate doctor's appointment. The pharmacy team can help with common conditions like urinary tract infections, pink eye, strep throat testing, cold sores, skin rashes, and more. If you wake up with a suspected UTI on a busy Tuesday, for example, you may be able to get assessed and treated the same day, right at the pharmacy counter.

Vaccination services are also a strong part of what this location offers. Patients can receive flu shots, COVID-19 vaccines, shingles vaccinations, and immunizations for hepatitis A and B, HPV, meningitis, pneumonia, RSV, tetanus, and yellow fever. Travel health consultations are available for those planning trips abroad and needing destination-specific vaccine advice.

Beyond acute care and immunizations, the pharmacy supports ongoing health management. Services include blood pressure testing, glucose and blood sugar checks, A1C testing for those monitoring diabetes, and cholesterol and lipid checkups. There is also support for people working on quitting smoking, managing sleep difficulties, or dealing with reflux and heartburn through dietary consultation.

Skin and dermatology-related concerns are well covered too, with care available for acne, eczema, nail fungus, ringworm, dandruff, and various infections. Reproductive and hormonal health services include contraception counselling, the morning after pill, and support for premenstrual symptoms and period cramps. Allergy services and treatment for conditions like erectile dysfunction and oral fungal infections round out the clinical offerings.

The location on Highland Road West is easily accessible for residents throughout the Kitchener west end. It is a practical first stop for patients looking to address everyday health needs close to home, without the wait times often associated with walk-in clinics or emergency departments.

Services Offered

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.

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.
