Michelle and Geoff Carleton.

Having brought up children and lived most of their adult lives in Otautau , we have a commitment 
to give as great a service as we can to the people of Western and Central Southland.

Geoff and Michelle Carleton...Pharmacists and owners

Geoff and Michelle Carleton...Pharmacists and owners Geoff and Michelle bought Winton Pharmacy from Peter Burdon in 1999. Before this time they owned Carletons Pharmacy in Otautau which had belonged to Geoffs father. Michelle also had worked at Winton Pharmacy after she had finished training as a Pharmacist and before having their three daughters.

Since their children are now working  Michelle has had more time to implement additional health services that they are now offering at the pharmacy. Michelle qualified as an independent vaccinator in 2012 and has been giving flu along with other vaccinations in the pharmacy and out in the community since then.

She has just completed an advanced diploma in Nutrition and can help you with advice in this area. Along with Geoff and Lyndon, she has also got up and running INR testing in the pharmacy (see under health services)
Geoff and Michelle will continue to look at other health services that can be of benefit to the community. Michelle has lots of interests including travel, golf, reading, pilates, sewing and knitting.....finding it hard to fit everything in.

Geoff is a trustee of the Otautau and Winton Medical centres and a keen golfer.
