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.
