Actress and local resident Samia Ghadie cut the ribbon at a recently transformed pharmacy on Thursday, 7th August.
Samia, who plays Maria Connor in Coronation Street, helped to officially open the Lloyds Pharmacy store at Summerfield Village Centre, where her mum Patsy is a regular customer.
The Wilmslow team, led by pharmacy manager Matthew Twist, will now offer Lloyds Pharmacy's new approach to community health, which has been developed to improve access to healthcare information and support.
As part of the transformation, the pharmacy now offers free, enhanced services for a range of conditions, including skin health and pain management.
The pharmacy's new skin offering covers all aspects of skin health from medicines management advice for people on prescription treatment to medicated skin products. A high-tech addition is a skin analyser machine.
Matthew said: "We are delighted to be a pioneer in a project that will do much to raise awareness of healthcare needs at a local level.
"What we want to do is help people discuss their health problems, offer support on how we can help them and how they can help themselves, all in relaxed surroundings where people can feel more comfortable talking about their concerns.
"The new skin analyser is a great addition to the services we offer. It looks at several different features, including hydration and elasticity, using scientific probes and a micro-camera. The results then help us to recommend the most suitable care routines and products."
Matthew continued "We know many who suffer from long-term health conditions don't always want to go to their doctor every time they have a question.
"Our dedicated and experienced team is supporting local residents' healthcare needs by providing services that complement GPs and other healthcare professionals by offering convenient, one-to-one support in pleasant, modern surroundings."
