Thank you for being one of the rare pharmacies that refuse to price gouge rapid antigen tests in times of need. Friendly staff who are willing to give great advice - you deserve to have my continued support!

Love this pharmacy! Susan is a wonderful pharmacist and the staff are always so helpful. Love to support a small business and being served by friendly, caring people. I'd happily go here again as opposed to the big box discount pharmacies. Highly recommend

The post office staff are very friendly and helpful. Good experience here. Although they are small business they did very good job. Im lucky to get Andrew's(I dont know whether this is correct spelling or not) and other staff 's help for sending my very important passport and other documents. Andrew is quite patient and give me many suggestions. I really appreciate it. Thank you guys. Merry Christmas.

Terrible service at the pharmacy. Takes advantage of customers and charges triple the retail rate. Avoid this place!

Great service both as pharmacy and post office
In fact, as far as post offices go, this is by far the best I've ever dealt with.
