Mom n Pop minimalist style pharmacy. As in, this is an old school type of place, first and foremost a pharmacy (ie. I wouldn't go there to buy cosmetics or snacks) The small team of pharmacists are all knowledgable, friendly from the get go, and will always take time to discuss health concerns/meds with a customer. A much more personal experience, especially when compared to any of the big box shops!

Called in while in the area to pick up some crutches for my brother. The lady was extremely helpful on the phone and even more so in person. I was honestly surprised with this level of service and care. Unexpected and amazing! She even gave us some helpful tips and was very very kind. Thank you! Brightened up our day.
