You don't see many private, locally owned pharmacies around & I just so happened to notice this one that opened 2 months ago. I usually stick to the big corporate pharmacies like CVS, Rite aid, Costco, etc. solely for comfort as they're all I've known for years! Not to mention I have a laundry list of meds each month so even switching from one corporate pharmacy to another made my head hurt. Unfortunately my body reacts differently to different manufacturers giving me adverse side effects which leads me to have to trial & error all of my medication. Over the years I've had to do a lot of my own research on pharmaceutical manufacturers to find out what kind of fillers each use, patient reviews from their prior interaction with them, recalls, etc. but I've narrowed down to a select few manufacturers that I trust & know 1st hand won't give me adverse rx's. However I had to start calling pharmacy after pharmacy to locate one that carried the reliable manufacturers (which was very few & far between) to have my prescriptions sent over. I also had to have my family physician begin to note specific manufacturers for specific medications. Having your insurance pay for a prescription only to find out it's completely useless because it makes you sick is not only frustrating, but expensive as I had to begin to start paying out of pocket to have a different manufacturer filled during the same month as insurance will not cover it. This is what lead me to Blooms Pharmacy & I cannot say enough good things about the owner & this pharmacy. He took the time to explain to me that he had to do his due diligence & contact my prior pharmacy to note why I was having the same prescription filled within a few days of each other, because by law he has to explain why he also filled it. The owner is one of the nicest, personable & helpful people you will ever meet. He took the time to listen to my story of how I react to certain manufacturers & told me his time working at a corporate CVS, he learned a lot from listening to the customers concerns over manufacturers. Turns out he was one of the pharmacist at the 7 mile & middlebelt location! After feeling like his hands were tied on the manufacturers he could order, he decided to open his own business & only carries the best ones around per his customers requests over the years. He accepts all insurances & even if you have to pay out of pocket, he is less than a third of the big chain pharmacies prices! Do yourself & your body a favor & take your business over to Blooms pharmacy, you will not be disappointed. Your prescriptions will be ready in a matter of minutes rather than waiting hours on end & you'll be treated as a valued customer like you should be! read more
