Stop what you're doing and RUN.. don't walk-- straight to Altru Chemists Pharmacy. Forget about ever getting your prescriptions filled at an awful big box chain retail pharmacy again. As someone who takes over a half dozen maintenance medications daily (some of which are ever changing with strength and quantity), has exceptionally poor prescription insurance, and an incredibly busy schedule... the typical pharmacy experience for me is stressful, disappointing, a waste of time, anxiety-inducing, and always end in a headache to say the least. Since Altru opened, I decided I'd give them a call and get some cash price quotes on a couple of my meds to see if it would be worth transferring them all. VERY long story short, they took no time at all to get all my meds transferred, filled, saving me on average $600 per month with their incredible pricing, premium customer service that is above and beyond anything I've ever experienced at a pharmacy in my life. (and I worked as a retail pharmacy technician for 8 years!) Even if your script isn't ready, they'll fill it right then and there before you can even blink. You will never wait in a long line. Text reminders for your refills. Even personal texts asking what meds I need when I forget to call for refills. They knew my name by my second visit, and have treated me like FAMILY since then. The pharmacists are genuinely caring, very efficient, and will stop at nothing to make certain the patient is happy and that all of their needs are met. All of the staff are kind, caring, quick, and so friendly. The store itself is so clean and beautiful plus they offer covid testing among other convenient services at times. The store is fully stocked with a majorly impressive and varied amount of OTC drugs, vitamins, supplements, any and all necessities... also at amazing prices. I just can't say enough about how extraordinary Altru and the pharmacy staff truly are. I could never thank them enough for the truly astonishing service. 165/10 would recommend to anyone and everyone I know and also to strangers as well. 9...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis review about COVID test services has been updated from 1* to 5*. Altru Chemists team contacted MedBar and the lab so they communicated test results in a timely fashion.
UPDATE 12/2: The manager of this pharmacy just called me trying to help. I was truly impressed how carefully he listened and tried to help to resolve my situation. In fact, the pharmacy is a collection site, and they only collect samples (both COVID and antibody were performed very professionally on my kid). The pharmacy team will be contacting to MedBar and the Lab trying to escalate the process. So, to be fair - here is my updated review to the pharmacy: Altru COVID-19 sample collection and rapid antibody test performed on a kid: 5* Altru COVID-19 test online scheduling and appointment wait time: 5* Altru Chemist Customer Service and Customer Support - 5* MedBar Communication and Results Update: 1* MedBar Customer Service: - 1*
INITIAL REVIEW: (For MedBar) If you're looking for a place to get your COVID-19 test, please avoid it at all costs. You'll be chasing for the information without knowing when exactly should you expect your results. The test is performed by the company called MedBar, after calling multiple times several times a day they advice you to go and perform a rapid test somewhere else. This is the worst experience ever. Stay away from MedBar with their...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreLiterally never been in love with a pharmacy before Altru Chemists.
First went to Altru Chemists over a year ago, utterly delightful staff, and completely speedy service. After Lev took my prescription, I said, "I really like this place. Y'all are so friendly." Then Lev said, "Thank you! We are! And you can move all your prescriptions here and we even do delivery."
I moved all scripts there; have not yet used the delivery. Yet. They are fast. There's rarely a line, but the kicker is they SEE you. They recognize you, they say hello and they tell you exactly what's going on and if ever there's an issue, they give you clear steps on how to solve it fast. They even wait for you to get it solved right there at the counter while being super kind.
Here's the deal: I wear cool clothes, drive cool cars (jk can't afford cool cars), listen to cool music and I like all the cool things you like (if you're cool) and I don't like any of the things things total squares love. I reeeeeeeaally like this pharmacy. I like it so much I'm actually writing a review online. I hope Altru Chemists takes over the world and the staff become our...
