Is Boots Forfar a good choice?
Boots is on the GPhC register (premises no. 1041755), recorded 3 NHS services in June 2026 (including free emergency contraception and the NHS contraception service) and has no published patient reviews yet. This reflects the data on this profile — GPhC registration, register standing and published prices — not a guarantee of service quality.
Boots Forfar is not a clinic, not a substitute for the live GPhC register, and not medical advice. Skip it if you need today's opening hours — we do not have a timetable on file, so call the pharmacy or check NHS.uk. This page is not Boots Forfar's official website; use boots.com for the pharmacy's own booking or shop. Pick My Pharmacy does not sell or supply medicines. For emergencies use NHS 111 or 999.

Source: Public Health Scotland open data — NHS activity recorded in June 2026. A service recorded that month is good evidence the pharmacy offers it, but staffing and stock change — phone before you travel. Services are only listed when the NHS data shows them, so a missing service is not proof it is unavailable.
