FAQ

Grimsby questions, answered

Can Pharmly help with seasonal allergies in Niagara wine country?

Yes - hay fever and allergic rhinitis are among the conditions an Ontario pharmacist can assess and, when appropriate, prescribe for. Complete the short online questionnaire and a pharmacist follows up, usually within 24 hours, with treatment delivered across Grimsby.

Is this really free for Grimsby residents?

Yes - with a valid Ontario health card the assessment is free, because Ontario pays pharmacies for minor ailment assessments. Without a health card it is a flat $30. If a medication is prescribed you pay the usual price for it, and your drug plan may cover it.

Do I need to visit a pharmacy in person?

No. The whole assessment happens online, and if treatment is prescribed it can be delivered to you anywhere in Grimsby at no extra cost - or sent to a pharmacy near you.

I don't have a family doctor. Does that matter?

Not at all - no referral, appointment, or family doctor is needed. Pharmly exists precisely for the millions of Ontarians who don't have easy access to primary care.

What if my condition isn't treatable by a pharmacist?

The questionnaire screens for red flags, and the pharmacist will honestly tell you if your situation needs a doctor or urgent care - and point you to the right place in Grimsby. A prescription is only ever provided when it is appropriate. For any emergency, call 911.
