We had no issue getting my daughters prescription refilled and covered by insurance at our pharmacy before moving to the area. After having it refilled at Griebs we were told there was an issue with our insurance. Our insurance company told us the issue was was because of the way they were billing it out and when I called Griebs to tell them the woman I spoke with was extremely rude, condescending and unhelpful...and wouldnt change the way it was billed out despite the advice of our insurance company. Would not recommend and will not go back.

Probably the best pharmacy I have ever had. They are careful and conscientious. Unlike most of the chain pharmacy that we are forced to deal with, Grieb's always goes the extra mile! They have wonderful helpful pharmacists and exceptional customer service from all of their sales assistants! Whenever a friend or family member complains to me about their latest bad experience with one of the big chains down the block, the first thing I do is tell them to switch to Grieb's!

Debi runs a fantastic operation at Grieb's. The entire staff is professional, beyond helpful & friendly! My family has been using this pharmacy for over a decade because the prescriptions are ready quickly and the customer service is the best you'll find... If you can't get to the pharmacy, they will deliver your prescription to you!! They also sell beautiful gifts, such as local jewelry and candles, & unique trinkets that are worth visiting the store for - 10/10 would recommend Grieb's to a friend!

Recently we have had difficulty with our insurance coverage - you name it, it was a problem. The issues were with the insurance company's data and Grieb's staff was absolutely wonderful! I can't tell you how many times they were patiently on the phone with us and/or the insurance companies. None of it was their fault, but they were incredibly helpful and supportive! Go to Grieb's - it's a no brainer.

First time in my life when the pharmacist offered me a glass of water to wash down some Tylenol! That was some years ago. I soon learned that there is no better pharmacy than Grieb's! My friend's mother moved overseas last year and still gets her prescriptions filled by Chuck. He has saved her life several times by recognizing harmful combinations in her prescribed medications.
Darien residents swear by Grieb's. The cost is the same, so why would anyone go elsewhere? And Grieb's delivers! One more thing: Grieb's always has the best selections or cards, fun gifts, holiday items and lots of other
