Excellent personal service. No waiting in line like at other pharmacies. Usually by the time I leave the doctor 's office, they text me to tell me my prescription is ready!

The team at this pharmacy is wonderful. Both of my parents have used their services through the community in which they live, and every time I have called the folks at Ridgecrest, they are attentive, know who I am and very helpful and forthcoming with the information they provide. A rare find these days. Bravo, Ridgecrest team.
