We came down for COVID boosters - a combination of adults and kids for Moderna/Pfizer. Jay was super efficient, polite and helped my son through his fear of needles. My go to place for boosters now on!

I (uninsured) scheduled a covid vaccination back when their advertising said the shots were free. Three weeks later, I got an automated text telling me my appointment was the next day (I had two previous automated appointments, but no covid vaccine each other time I drove there). I get there and have to wait an hour. For those (me) who don't know, the new covid vaccine is not free at the point of service. The government can get a shot for ~$30, the pharmacy can get a shot for ~$115. We paid for the research and the warp speed, btw; you are paying for rent-seekers' profit. Anyway, I was asked for my credit card but was not told the price. Surprise! $175. That's ~$60 administration fee. I had to wait an hour at my third appointment. YAHOO, You Always Have Other Options, I suggest seeking out another Pharmacy. They said they would stay late (after store hours) to service all people waiting in line. Sorry for your wait. Again. Third try. 1 hour long wait. HIGH (surprise) ~$60 admin fee. Their unvaccinated seasonal flu vaccine price is on the higher side too. $45.

Jay and his pharmacy staff go above and beyond! I always feel heard and respected unlike other corporate pharmacies I was fed up with when I transferred my medication here. Thank you!!!

I'm honestly not even sure how I stumbled upon this pharmacy, but I'm so glad I did! They do a great job to make you feel welcome and have always had my prescription ready to go when I arrive. They communicate clearly to make sure you understand the medication that has been prescribed to you. I used to go to a big box pharmacy a few blocks away from my house (it may start with a big red W) but got tired of being shuffled through & having to wait hours because they hadn't gotten around to filling my prescription. Savco makes me feel valued and that is something that I will drive an extra 10-15 minutes for. Give them a try!

Very friendly and helpful , has the feel of an old school pharmacy, hate the biggies like Walgreens n cvs n target , no independent thinkers. The pharmacist is very genuine and helpful , and the clerks and pharm techs do a good job too .just wish they weren't so far from me, but they gave me great service and were very kind.

Been debating switching to an online pharmacy but these guys are great and Jay has made some recommendations for me to tell my doctor so I can save money on my meds. Plus my doctor's office seems to make a decent amount of mistakes and savco always fixes it for me.

My partner needed a prescription filled and they ran out of it at every Walgreen's in all of the Bay Area. After calling every pharmacy around, Savco had the drug and filled in quickly. I had to pick up the prescription for him, and everytime I've had to do this in the city, it has always been a difficult time because the drug is highly regulated. The staff at Savco understood that I would be coming because we called ahead and were ready for me. They trusted me and did what was best for the patient (my partner) who needed the drugs. I was so anxious driving up, ready to argue. But they smiled, handed me the prescription, and told me to call next time we needed to fill- they could tell us if they had it or not. Will definitely be coming back! A delightful experience!!!

This is a wonderful, attentive pharmacy. The owner even wished me a happy birthday. Small things are appreciated. The people are polite, efficient, and friendly. I highly recommend them.I was a loyal customer of Rite Aid on Winchester and Payne. I knew and liked the staff. Walgreens (the parent company) closed the store. They must have been jealous of the goodwill generated by that store. When I went to Walgreens at Payne and Saratoga Ave, the pharmacist was arrogant, rude, demanding, and uncooperative. My doctor changed the dosage on a prescription and she was refusing to fill it. She is not in charge and I pointed out it was to MD who ordered the change. "Well, I'm a PHARMACIST!" she yelled. There was no reason for a confrontation. I demanded she dispense it and she stalled on purpose. I looked on Yelp and found Savco. I'm happy with them and feel appreciated and treated with respect. As for Walgreens, I would not trust them to dispense bubble gum.

This pharmacy comes highly recommended from me, and that's as someone who has worked full time on both sides of a pharmacy counter. Unlike as has become the case in many pharmacies around nowadays, the team working at Savco actually have the time to evaluate and look at your prescription, make sure they get your prescription taken care of correctly, and have the ability to reach out to you and make sure your insurance is correct and on file. When they received a prescription for me and didn't have my insurance on file, they actually gave me a call to let me know they'd gotten the prescription but couldn't fill it out of concern for the cost and lack of coverage on my part and we're asking if I had coverage if like to use--that'd never happen these days with your name brand pharmacies; they'd simply not fill the prescription instead. I really appreciate the individual attention at this pharmacy and feel like if a mistake were made in my prescription that needed to be caught by a pharmacist, this is the place where that could actually happen.In short, I feel like the care and attention one receives at this pharmacy could literally save lives and cannot be overstated. Yes, they can still get busy and get slammed by calls and the occasional long line just like any pharmacy. But you can actually always get someone on the phone at this pharmacy--and can even talk to the pharmacist in short order when you need. It's also like the difference between a small-town vs big city business experience; here they're going to take care of and remember you in an individualized way that simply won't happen when you're just one name out of many in the corporate pharmacy's patient database.
