Ive only ever dealt with them over the phone, but theyve been nothing but professional, helpful, and cheerful every time. Literally made my entire day.

While I had a good experience during my consult, I have not had a positive experience since. I understand they are building a prescription specifically for me, however it took 10 days for it to be filled. I followed up twice after starting the prescriptions, the first follow-up took 10 days to receive a response from Matt and the second took three weeks with multiple calls and even an in person visit to finally hear back. There doesnt appear to be a strong emphasis on follow up and customer service and the prescription fill time was lengthy; my medical concerns havent been corrected by Matts

Trust your gut and read up on nature throid! Buderer drugs helped me when doctors were telling me I should have my thyroid removed. They offer seminars so if you are at a loss, like I was when doctors told me it's all in my head do yourself a favor and go get informed.

Reminds me of old apothecary/holistic healing shops you'd see in TV shows with some of the old bottles they have on display there, most medications it seems are not covered by insurance but the staff if friendly and helpful! Kinda hard to locate with GPS just know it's inside the shopping center!

The staff is friendly and seems knowledgable, but it takes FOREVER to get a script filled. I know they custom make everything, but it often takes a week for refills.
