Report
In total agreement with the previous April review by Kathy E. All who work in this hometown pharmacy are terrific. I love chitchatting with Sandy and Debbie at the counter, very friendly and caring. And Robert, such a nice man. All of them care and take their time with you, in addition to filling the prescriptions accurately and quickly. And of course, the first time I walked into this pharmacy over 5 years ago, I knew it would be "my" pharmacy, what with all the Florida Gator memorabilia and just that close hometown feel. There are other pharmacies physically closer but none can

Throwback in time and no need to remodel this 1960s Fl. Gator decorated no-frills pharmacy!
MOST caring pharmacist Robert Pelot & employees )no turn over here) you will ever find in the United States.
Oldest Rexall privately owned drugstore in the United States.
Robert Pelot (who has won local awards for help in the community) took over from his 104 year old pharmacist-Father (who my grandmother used to go to & I met.)
Feel free to ask questions, shoot the breeze or find contacts for just about anything. None of this I don't care about you attitude. Lucky to have this hidden
