They describe the team as knowledgeable, with a clear understanding of medications and potential interactions, and helpful in recommending topics for discussions with primary doctors. The pharmacy is noted for its assistance with insurance issues, saving customers hundreds of dollars, and for making necessary calls to get approvals. In urgent situations, such as filling a prescription for Paxlovid for a very sick patient, the staff provided courteous, caring options when other pharmacies were unavailable or rude. Customers acknowledge the pharmacy is constantly busy and can be understaffed, which is not under the team's control, but they work tirelessly to serve everyone as efficiently as possible. Despite this pressure and occasional bluntness, their dedication does not go unnoticed. Reviewers emphasize that pharmacy service is not fast food, and many have relied on the helpful staff for years, getting everything they need in one stop.

They're tired and overworked and I appreciate them for showing up. I don't care if they don't ask me how my day goes. Working in service industry is hard af. Pretending like you care about people and believing they care about you is overrated. Thank you for doing your job pharmacists. We love and appreciate you.
