The local delivery has been so helpful during quarantine as I dont have a car. The staff are always very kind on the phone. Glad I found them!

Solid spot, but watch out for hidden price gouging. I came here to buy a thermometer. They had one in stock, even though most other pharmacies had run out, and it had a reasonable list price. Cool. The place was clean, well-organized, and who doesn't like to support small businesses? I live nearby and was ready to make this my regular pharmacy... Then I witnessed the guy helping me subtly take the price tag off of the thermometer when he thought I wasn't looking. He rang it up as 5x the listed price. Now, the final price was probably market because of the whole coronavirus thing, but

Im a nurse practitioner who receives refill requests from this pharmacy frequently for my patients. I called up there yesterday to get a medication list for a new patient who could not remember what they were previously taking. The pharmacist was very rude and kept saying I dont know who you are even after explaining to him several times who I was and what was needed. I kept asking if he wanted to know my name or prescriber number so he could look me up but he refused. If he had just bothered to look up my name he would have seen that they send me refill requests frequently. The owner

Can be a great pharmacy but at times the deliveries can be sporadic, phone lines would go the answering lines, they can run out of meds and the wait can take a few days, which is annoying but they can be good. I don't know why their service can be sporadic, but when they're good their good, but when they're bad they're bad. That's why I gave them 3 stars.
