My husband and I had our booster shot today. Excellent service and very polite knowledgeable staff. The young man administering the booster was very gentle and kind. We would recommend Victoria Park Pharmacy as a go to for all pharmacy needs.

This Pharmacy and staff are always very helpful. I recently switch to Victoria Park pharmacy after leaving a large corporate pharmacy. They have been really amazing, I have had little or no wait to get a prescription filled. If there was one, it was always next day. The other larger one sometimes took up to a week. When it was time for a flu shot, we got an appointment right away and no waiting. I am very happy with my decision to switch.

I had booked an appointment for my second vaccination from a week ago for Wednesday 14 at 4:30 I booked the next day off because I knew I would get sick after the vaccination. After work I went for my appointment when I got there the old guy behind the register told me no one was booked for today and that they didnt have an vaccine for me so I left to find out that the guy thought I was a random
Customer and that my vaccine was there the whole time. They wasted my time, booked the next day off for no reason and I still didnt get vaccinated. And they wanted me to waste my time again to come

This is a great pharmacy, they're very kind and process my prescriptions and get me my medicine very fast. If there's a government program or a coupon that makes my prescription cheaper or free they always make sure to tell me. Delivery times are very good too, usually same day. Overall an amazing pharmacy, I really like the pharmacists there!
