About Medicare
Medicare was established in 1987 by Managing Director Afzal Khan and his brother, Director Asghar Khan - both qualified pharmacists.
From the outset their aim was to provide a local pharmacy service delivering healthcare to the community, ensuring that all their customers needs were met.
The family-run business now has seven chemists, located in the Huddersfield area - Bradley, Salendine, Marsh, Lockwood, Honley and two in Holmfirth - Elmwood Health Centre and Riverside, and employ over 40 staff.
They place great importance on customer service, and to ensure they remain on track they utilise a mystery shopper scheme and undertake an annual customer satisfaction survey, on which they score consistently highly.
I have been in a number of chemists in my life but this pharmacy is the best by far. They are very friendly and quickly remember your name on following visits. If you forget to pick up your pills or prescription they will ring you to remind you. They always ask how you are and are always happy to see you. I feel they go the extra mile.
