My husband & I went to the pharmacy for our covid boosters. We were greeted by Pharmacist Norman who was a breath of fresh air. He was so kind and answered all of our questions. He was extremely pleasant and helpful throughout the process. Receiving the injection was painless. We were very pleased with our experience and will be back.

We have been delighted with this pharmacy, which we discovered by pure chance. They have provided all our vaccines and will even special-order our dog's prescription veterinary medicine. The wait times are never long, and the COVID precautions they put in place make us feel safe. They provide seamless support for insurance billing, and they even answer the phone when we call...a rare form of old-school service that you'll seldom find in the big chains these days. Thank you, Ferndale Pharmacy, for providing such great service - and always with a smile!!
