Customers praise the quick and friendly staff, and say prescriptions are filled quickly when in stock. One regular said the team is always quick to respond and easy to deal with, and that they have used the pharmacy for nearly five years. Another, who needed an emergency script while away from home, said the team was understanding and accommodating. Some find the lack of compassion disheartening, and others mention overnight waits. Nearby, of the seven pharmacies within a kilometre with ten or more reviews, none rates higher. Alexander Pharmacy, 0.5 km away, has 54 reviews at 4.6. Our pick in Te Aro for a local pharmacy with the vaccine clinic and repeat medicines.
