Broad St Apothecary

Very nice people

Dear reader, as is my rule, I never write a review without going somewhere several times first. I’ve been dealing with Broad St Apothecary for quite a few months now. I switched my regular ‘please don’t die’ pills from CVS to them after being told for the umpteenth time that my medications weren’t’ ready when I was told they would be. The first time I called in my prescription to BSA, I asked when they would be ready. Here is what I was told: «Five minutes? All I have to do is count the pills and put them in a bottle…»
Five minutes… wow… is this what it’s like to have a pharmacy that actually works?! There are only two people working at the counter at any given time in comparison to CVS’ eleventyfour and they can not only have it ready in five minutes in comparison to CVS’ hour, but will actually have it when CVS often doesn’t! So many times, I’ve had to sit and wait for those white-​coated assholes to do their fucking jobs at CVS. It’s a fucking pain in the ass to wait not one, but TWO hours to go over to CVS to get my shit, only to find that the assholes STILL don’t have it filled so I have to wait ANOTHER thirty minutes. Shit, what the fuck kind of business practice is that.
«Will these meds be pick-​up or delivery?»
«Pardon me???» I asked, forgetting I still had Broad St Apothecary on the phone.
«Pick up or delivery?»
«Um…» I stuttered before I could get out a semblance of an answer. Okay, not only are they better than CVS in every possible way, but they deliver, too?! That puts the final nail in CVS’ coffin for me. «Delivery please. Do you have my address on file from the prescription?»
«We sure do. It’ll be there in about thirty minutes. You’re last on the list and we have four other deliveries to send out. Is that okay?»
I’m shocked. «That’s… wonderful…» trying to contain my happiness at a pharmacy that actually pharmaces (it’s a word now, cuz I said so) and does it’s pharmacing (same) damned well.
«Thank you,» I said.
«You’re very welcome.»
