You cannot beat North Coast Medical Pharmacy for all your prescription needs…read more I was in a very serious car accident 11 years ago and Justin caught medications that were prescribed to me that would have interacted with a current medication I was on. I will be forever grateful for that. Justin and his staff always go above and beyond. You will never ever get service and personal caring like that at CVS or Walgreens!

Coming here can be inconvenient for me sometimes, mostly for hours, but I love supporting a "moms…read moreand pops" business and Justin is amazing. He's not only super friendly but also very smart. Always took me back when I walked in and he remembered my full name. On top of that, the technicians and other pharmacists are always so nice and helpful. Its a perfect example of a locally owned, "moms and pops" business I continue to use over the connivence of the "big box stores". Any problems, they will call you. Wait times are far less than CVS or the pharmacies in the grocery stores. Moira is also awesome and answered all my questions. I prioritize efficiency in my life and they are a rare example of being all aspects - efficient, knowledgeable, friendly, and so welcoming.

Once I realized how customer service oriented they were, I transferred all of my prescriptions from CVS to Cedar Park Pharmacy.

Never felt like I was being rushed. The reason I am writing this note is because the bigger pharmacys one has to wait in line plus I had to wait a 4 days before my prescripiton was filed. At Cedar it was done the first day.

This CVS is conveniently located near Whole Foods and the freeways. It had organic pistachios -…read moreshelled and unshelled varieties! They also had organic mixed nuts, organic popcorn and organic Ashwagandha tea which I bought and tried for the first time and it was great. They sold 40 hydrogen peroxide wipes for $3.29 and the second one was 50% off, so I gladly bought two of those. 40 alcohol wipes were over $7, but hp is just as good. The employee that rung me up was nice. I was able to get cash back too.

I have a thing for small businesses. I believe that America was founded on small business and,…read morewhile corporations can be useful, they can't (and often won't) give you the kind of attention and service that the folks who run a small business can. After all, when you're employed by some faceless company in Chicago or somewhere, there's not a lot to connect you to your customers - they're just anonymous faces, and usually annoying ones at that. But small business employees treat you like you're somebody, because they know that every dollar you spend with them has a pipeline right to their checkbook. Years ago I made a conscious decision to support small, local businesses wherever I can, and they've never let me down. Mission Park Pharmacy is one of those businesses. It's an old-time pharmacy; been here since the early '60s when Loma Alta was still a developing neighborhood. The receptionists are nice - they treat you like a person, take time to talk with you, get to know your name, and greet you with it when you walk in. The general merchandise shelves can be a little sparse - don't go in thinking you're going to buy a case of Band-Aids to get you through the zombie holocaust, because they've probably only got 4 boxes. But they always have what I need, whether it's prescription medications (which I seem to be using at an alarming rate, these days) or sundries, and they also have a full rack of greeting cards, an assortment of stuffed animals, and a big wall of candy that would put most 7/11s to shame. I love this place. It's old-fashioned, in a good way. The people are nice, the prices are reasonable, and dammit, I'd rather see them get my insurance company's money than send it back East to CVS. They're very convenient if you're a Sharp Mission Park patient, as they're located in the Sharp complex. Keep in mind that they are open until 6PM on weekdays - which is great for when you've got to swing by after work - but not at all on weekends - which is bad if you didn't plan ahead.

I actually still like Target even tho they have done a few things that I didn't like since 2024…read more However, I also want to avoid using Amazon as much as possible. Right after my misadventure and frustration at another nearby store, I ended up at this Target. It's a large Target with a good sized grocery area, clean including the restrooms, a Starbucks and a pharmacy. The beauty/personal care product area of the store is fairly large. I miss having Ulta here, but oh, well. Even tho this store is fairly busy, they don't have whole aisles of products locked up, unlike a nearby competitor. I found what I wanted and plan on coming back when I have more time. I stopped over in the grocery area, where Francis who may have been working as a Target personal shopper filling someone's list, asked me if I needed help finding something. It's so nice to feel seen in a store. As a senior, I sometimes don't feel that way. As I was going back to the registers, I noticed other employees asking people if they needed help finding things - one even walked a shopper over to the area that had what she needed. I feel like in what seems to be a stressful time in the world and in many of our lives, with increased prices and conflict. I will still choose to go shopping in an actual store if possible, especially a store with good customer service and unlocked nail polish remover. I just wish that Target would again have products that supported the LGBTQ and black communities. Even tho I am a straight old white lady, I still bought some of those products.

I was REALLY wanting to read Dungeon Crawler Carl and the library didn't have any available copies…read more I decided to go to Target because we had a gift card collecting dust. We used to go to Target all the time, but stopped because they rolled back DEI initiatives. This Target is definitely better than the other Targets in the area so would go here if you need to go to . Was able to get the book for 20% off which was nice. They have eliminated a lot of workers I feel like with the automated checkout areas, but that is the way the world is changing. I try to go to a human cashier whenever possible. Human connection helps us be better people and it might save their job. The book is great btw. It's a mix between Ready Player One and Hunger Games.
