About us
Bear Flat's independently-owned pharmacy
The same trusted pharmacy, with a fresh pair of hands behind the counter.
Our story
A familiar face on Hayes Place
Wellsway Pharmacy has been part of Bear Flat for years — a familiar face on Hayes Place, trusted by the people who live and work here. We've taken on that responsibility with care, and we're committed to keeping everything that works while quietly improving what we can.

Specialist service
Care home dispensing
We provide a dedicated dispensing service for care homes across Bath. Medication is checked, packed, and delivered on schedule — with direct communication between our pharmacist and care home staff to make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
What we believe
Our values
Your prescriptions belong to you
We'll never pressure you to stay. If you want to transfer your prescriptions elsewhere, we'll help you do it. No questions, no hard sell.
Access without barriers
Walk in and talk to our pharmacist. No appointment, no referral, no waiting list. That's what a community pharmacy should be.
Part of Bear Flat
We're not a chain. We're your neighbours. The decisions about this pharmacy are made here, by the people who work here.
The team

Team member
Superintendent pharmacist
I've been a pharmacist for over 10 years, working in community pharmacies across the South West. When the opportunity came up to take on Wellsway, I jumped at it — Bear Flat deserves an independently-owned pharmacy that actually knows its patients.
Team member
Pharmacy technician
I handle your repeat prescriptions, manage stock, and make sure everything behind the counter runs smoothly. If you call about a repeat, you're probably talking to me.
Team member
Dispenser
I'm usually the first face you see when you walk in. I help with prescription collections, over-the-counter advice, and anything else you need while you're here.
