Report
Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience at Koshlands. We have been recommended to John at Professional Village Pharmacy for my womens health compounding Rx and we could not be happier. Not only is my every 8 week lab test now stable but the quality in service and product is exponentially more elevated. Not only do I feel Amazing but also with consistent lab work I now only need x2 per year lab tests! My Womens Health Practitioner is Thrilled as am I. We were recommended to John at Professional Village by a fellow Koshlands customer who also switched. Also delivery with Professional

I have never had an issue with Koshland Pharm. They do an amazing job of filling my dog's prescription. Furthermore, they've always been super responsive to my queries, answering with kindness and professionalism. They're always really nice when I pick up, and prompt in filling prescriptions. Most recently we were back in SF visiting, we ran out of medication. And Koshland came through with an emergency vacation medication fill.
