About Medicine Man Pharmacy aims to complete the medical services available at major UK events. Providing a pharmacy at an event allows the public to access professional medical assessment, advice and treatment quickly without the need for filling in forms. Anyone who has been taken ill by minor ailments will know how it reduces their enjoyment of the event, but more than that it invariably means that their friends’ enjoyment is reduced whilst they wait for and are concerned for a member of their group. With Medicine Man, a patient can be ‘on their way’ with the required treatment within minutes. Mission To complete the medical services at UK events by allowing patients to be diagnosed and offered treatment quickly and effectively. History James Powell, founder of Medicine Man Pharmacy, qualified as a pharmacist in 1985. James’s vision for pharmacy was beyond the high street dispensary. He believed pharmacy should be more patient centric, working in an environment where there is opportunity to get to the heart of a patients needs in a time of crises. Medicine Man allows pharmacists to demonstrate and use knowledge that is not always required in a standard pharmacy and provides the opportunity to educate patients on medicines. Pharmacy has always been the most easily accessible healthcare profession. You don’t need to make an appointment to see a pharmacist therefore we should look to use this platform to promote our services and the medicines that we supply. In 1999, Medicine Man Pharmacy started providing its service at horse trials, music festivals, motor sport events, air shows and county shows. 2019 is our 20th anniversary year and we are proud to have attended almost 300 events from Cornwall to Scotland, offering our pharmacy support and advice to the general public.
