Ingrave Pharmacy & Travel Clinic has been part of this community for over 20 years. We are an independent pharmacy on Eastham Crescent in Ingrave, within the Brentwood borough of Essex. Our patients come to us from across Brentwood, Shenfield, Billericay, and the surrounding towns.
Independent pharmacies work differently. We know our patients by name. We make time to listen, explain, and follow up.
Over two decades, we have built lasting relationships with families across Ingrave and Brentwood. That continuity of care is something no online pharmacy or supermarket dispensary can offer.
We are open Monday to Friday, with clear and consistent hours the community can rely on.

In June 2020, Christopher Okworu took over Ingrave Pharmacy and significantly expanded what we offer. Christopher is a qualified Independent Prescriber with specialist interests in travel medicine, weight management, antibiotic prescribing, and other immediate health needs.
His clinical background shapes how the pharmacy is run. Decisions are made by a prescriber, not a dispensing counter. That means faster access to treatment, clinical oversight of private services, and a pharmacy that can genuinely assess and manage your health needs on site.
Clinical decisions on site, without waiting for a GP referral.

Assessment and management of acute health conditions on site.
Our mission is straightforward. We want every patient to leave knowing exactly what is happening with their health and why.
Clinical decisions take time. Every patient receives the attention they need, no matter how busy it is.
We prescribe and advise within our competence. Where something falls outside that, we say so and refer appropriately. Patient safety is not a background consideration.
Healthcare shouldn't depend on knowing the right people or waiting weeks for an appointment. We keep our services affordable, our hours consistent, and our booking process simple.
We are part of Ingrave. We are not a franchise reporting to a head office. The decisions we make here reflect what this community actually needs, not a national policy document.
Healthcare changes. We keep our clinical knowledge current, maintain our accreditations, and expand our services when doing so genuinely benefits our patients.
We provide a full range of NHS and private services under one roof.
