Many of our customers will remember Queens Park Pharmacy in its previous location at 474 Holdenhurst Road, when Henry Olswang was the owner and pharmacist.
The name was chosen because of its proximity to Queen’s Park. Local records show that there had been a pharmacy on the same site since 1931, when the pharmacist was Mr Peter Stirrup. Queen’s Park Pharmacy moved to its present location in 1993.
I am Mr Rajesh Kerai, Senior Pharmacist, I qualified as a pharmacist in 1998. I worked for Moss Pharmacy (now Boots Local), then as a locum pharmacist in the London area and the Thames Valley. I moved to Bournemouth in 2004 when I bought the pharmacy.
I and my supporting Pharmacists, dispensing technicians and pharmacy assistants endeavour daily to deliver superlative pharmacy services to a wonderful local community many of whom are like friends.
