Our Story
We believe that pharmaceutical care should constantly evolve to suit the ever-changing needs of its patients and the new environment caused by the global pandemic . That is why we’ve developed our own unique style of ‘elite’ care, one where clinical excellence meets new innovative technology coupled with exceptional customer service.
The Elite Meds story is one of collaborative endeavour, shared expertise and mutual understanding between the pharmacy’s two experienced directors.
After qualifying from the University of Manchester in 2009, Raj (director) spent over a decade successfully running his own NHS community pharmacies whilst, Reggie (director) found his success in the world of e-commerce. After achieving several individual accolades within their respective fields, the pair decided to combine their accrued knowledge and expertise to create an online healthcare platform that could redefine how patient care is accessed, supported, and delivered – Elite Meds became that online platform.
Highly skilled prescribers
Our clinical lead and head of the prescribing team is by Thomas Werner (GPhC No 207748). William has been providing consulations online for several years and is highly skilled at making safe prescribing decisions.
Experience in e-commerce
To create Elite Meds, we have used our e-commerce knowledge to utilise research and conduct significant user testing to give you the best possible experience. At Elite Meds, we have put technical structures in place to help support our customer's experience on the website from the point of viewing a product to the point of purchase.
Established pharmacists
Our two principle pharmacists have a combined experience of over 40 years working in the community pharmacy sector and have managed their own stores for many years.
Meet the Team
Unlike some of our competition, all of our pharmacists and prescibers are based in the UK and work in the UK. You can be sure that they are qualified and regulated to the highest standards.

Why Elite Meds
We are consistently making an impact, leading by example, setting benchmarks and improving the lives of our patients.
Here at Elite Meds, we believe that everything we do should be done with passion, executed with expertise and delivered with the utmost integrity. These three qualities run through the very core of the pharmacy’s DNA. It is was our passion for NHS community pharmacy that drove us to create Elite Meds – an original ‘one stop’ online pharmacy that puts the patient experience at the very heart of what we do.
We believe that a growing number of community pharmacies provide a service that is stagnant, impersonal, and uninspiring. While others gradually decline as a result of an ageing business model, coupled with a lack of an online presence. The pharmacy sector has been burdened by flat government funding for a number of years and this has also crippled innovation. Elite Meds aims to represent a modern, accessible, and forward-thinking type of online pharmacy. One that embraces new ideas, technologies, and procedures that help propel both the company and our customers in a healthier direction.
Our Expertise
Whilst we are a newly established online pharmacy, our clinical, technological and e-commerce knowledge spans several decades. A major advantage of having such a skilled group of professionals is that we are able to quickly alter and adapt to changes in the pharmaceutical landscape.
Our Vision
Our collective vision is to stand at the forefront of online pharmacy – pioneering new and intuitive ways to further improve our services and give our customers the very best experience possible. We believe in constantly re-evaluating ourselves to see how we can further raise the bar – whether it be in regards to safety protocols, user convenience, or our prescribing services.
One of our main goals as an online pharmaceutical platform is to adapt and innovate how our prescribers can be even more readily available and accessible when you need us most. To achieve this feat, we’re actively exploring new and exciting interactive outlets, most notable of which is online video consultations. This would enable our ‘elite’ prescribers to be there for you at a time and a place most convenient for you.
Quality Control
We’re proud to source all of our medicines right here in the UK and you can be assured that 100% of our products are genuine, effective and from reputable UK wholesalers such as AAH, Alliance Healthcare and Phoenix Healthcare.
Here at Elite Meds, we follow only the most stringent of procedures to ensure that our supply chain is always properly maintained. Furthermore, we routinely check our medicine to ensure continuity of quality, standards of packaging and to swiftly act in rare instances of medicine recalls.
Our pharmacists have years of experience and expert knowledge in medicine and health. Trained in the UK, our pharmacists are registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council which is the body responsible for the independent regulation of the pharmacy profession within England, Scotland, and Wales.
Prescribers
At Elite Meds, we have a highly trained team of independent pharmacist prescribers. This means they have the relevant education and training required to prescribe and impart their specialist knowledge.
Our prescribers can help explain why you may require certain medications, what effects they will have on you, and any side effects that may be experienced. They can also help ensure there are no contradictions on why the medication would be unsuitable for the individual.
Customer Care
Here at Elite Meds, we wholeheartedly believe that customer care shouldn’t be delivered as a one-way conversation; but as a shared, open and informative dialogue between the customer and the prescriber. By taking this kind of approach, our customers feel heard, understood and empowered when it comes to matters involving their health.
