The kind of outlets you describe remind me of your friendly community
pharmacy. Pharmacists now undergo five years of training in not only
the clinical sciences, but also in communication skills and health
education, and many community pharmacies now offer the services you
describe (along with more 'traditional' advice and prescription filling).
You may find the Royal Pharmaceutical Society website useful:
