Ather Diab

GPhC-Registered Pharmacist | Independent Prescriber

Ather Diab is a GPhC-registered pharmacist and independent prescriber with a clinical focus in travel medicine. He leads the travel health and vaccination service at Edinburgh Vaccination Clinic.

As an Independent Pharmacist Prescriber, Ather assesses each patient’s travel itinerary, medical history, and risk profile before prescribing any vaccine or antimalarial. He holds full prescribing authority — meaning the entire consultation, prescription, and administration happens in one visit, without the need for a GP referral.

Ather was recognised as Community Pharmacist of the Year at the Chemist + Druggist Awards 2025, one of the UK’s most recognised pharmacy awards.

“We wanted to create a place where people felt cared for, not processed. Winning these awards proves that community pharmacy can lead in transforming healthcare, not just support it.”

Farhad Mehmood

GPhC-Registered Pharmacist

Farhad Mehmood is a GPhC-registered pharmacist at Bruntsfield Pharmacy. He oversees the day-to-day running of the clinic alongside a team of eight staff, delivering NHS and private services including travel vaccinations, blood tests, allergy testing, and cryotherapy.

Farhad was jointly recognised as Community Pharmacist of the Year at the Chemist + Druggist Awards 2025.

“We really want to be the cornerstone of the community. When we took over the pharmacy, it had lost a lot of trust. We wanted to rebuild that trust and restore the pharmacy as a pillar of the community.”

“Age shouldn’t define your potential — your mindset should. You don’t need decades of experience to make an impact, just the courage to see things differently.”
