Introduction

My name is Emma Ford , and I am a Lead Clinical Pharmacist for Gateshead South Central Primary Care Network.

Bio

My expertise in medication means I can help patients get the best outcomes from their prescriptions. This can be especially important for people with complicated medication regimes, long-term conditions, or taking multiple medicines regularly.

I work directly with patients as part of your GP practice team. If you take regularly prescribed medication, you might be invited for a review with me. It’s an opportunity to discuss how you are getting on and any changes we can make to improve the benefit you get from your treatment.
