Dee Why Health Care pharmacy are great. They remember who you are, give you personal attention and go out of their way to help you. In my case I needed a compounded script for Aldosterone but at the moment it is really hard to get Aldosterone in Australia. Kassandra at Dee Why Health Care pharmacy, did some research and found a source for me, and made up the script at a very reasonable price. I'm just over the moon that I can get the medicine I need.
