Hi all
Here at the moment and suffering with ear pain which is not going away. We're staying onsite - can anyone recommend a walk in clinic in the area? Many thanks ☹ |

Go to Walgreens... pharmacists are great and if you need antibiotics they have a professional onsite.

Hi there
We went to a Walgreens a few days ago when we were up on I Drive but no pharmacist there. I asked for help regarding am ankle support for my DD but the assistants I spoke to were rather unhelpful. Even the poor girl at the counter didnt understand English that well. Do you know which Walgreens in this area have a Pharmacist? We fly home in 5 days and I really need to get this sorted it's making our holiday pretty miserable so much so I've even cancelled our FOP FP this morning ☹. Thank you |

My friends son had the same last year, they went through the insurance as he had to have a fit to fly certificate as it was looking like he couldn't come home . I'm sure last time we were there the Walgreens near Formosa gardens has a dr. Hope you get seen soon x
Edit: ask at reception if you are onsite, they often have a medical service

There's one near sea world that we used and I think there's a medical centre on the 192 unless it's gone (was a few years ago)
I suffer a lot with ear pain, have you tried olive oil drops, could just be a small bit of wax near the drum causing the pain Edited at 03:21 PM. |

This happened to my husband, we asked at reception and he was recommended a walkin clinic. Cost about 200 dollars for antibiotics and check up. This was last year. This year we took a product called Ear Calm from boots with us, he used it after each swim, it prevents ear infections. Definitely worth buying for future trips.

CVS have a minute clinic too - walkin and wait or register online and pick a time slot. $150 for thorough exam by medic and antibiotic drops and tablets. Full medical report printed but didn't bother to claim.

OP, if the pain is difficult to cope with see if there are any onsite facilities. If you can manage it, it would be worth contacting your travel insurance company to see if they recommend anyone/anything specific.
Just to let Dibbers know that not all Walgreen's have onsite pharmacists - we found this out the hard way! I don't know if PPM's link has a list of locations that have pharmacists. Hope you can get sorted quickly. |
