This is a new store and I figured a review would help draw people to it, and they could experience…read morethe quality of care I received. I think a lot of folks forget what it's like to be treated like a paying customer and not a loitering pain in the arse. I have special needs that require certain home heath care equipment that simply is not available anymore. I could not seem to get any help when I called many of the pharmacies in the HRM. I am used to being treated in a rather surly manner by pharmacists...especially when asking for the special equipment I need. However; I thought of this place because they're new and home health care oriented. Jacinda is the pharmacist and she is the one who helped me. She did not have what I was looking for in her store, so she called several others for me while I waited. Like my last review of another drugstore, I have to point out the quality customer service. I really appreciated the steps Jacinda was willing to take to locate the equipment I require. She was not able to locate what I needed in other stores around HRM either but she is actually calling the supplier to see if she can't get what I need at her location. (*UPDATE on this...She ACTUALLY did find it and I was super happy, so another star for Moffat's Pharmasave) I'm glad I've discovered not one but two places in the last 3 weeks with people working there who actually care about the person calling, their needs and extending themselves to a standard of customer service that seems to be a dying art in the retail world. Thank you Jacinda. And it was indeed, a pleasure to meet you :j

I have been using Moffat's at Gladstone since they opened, when my previous physician moved to that…read morelocation. It has been a wonderful experience to receive service from the two pharmacists, Leigh and Jacinda (I hope I spelled those right). They are both incredibly helpful and knowledgable. They care about my health and go the extra mile. They have reviewed options for Tier 1/Tier 2 drugs for optimal coverage on my health insurance plan and called my physician to discuss alternate medications. I have learned that building a relationship with a pharmacist over time is incredibly helpful as they follow your care and have so much knowledge about the medications you are on. This pharmacy also offers free delivery if you can't pick up your prescription. I believe they also offer a number of care services for a fee such as flu shots. Even though I have moved to a new physician located on the other side of town and this pharmacy is out of the way for me, I go the extra distance for the quality and friendliness of their service.

This place is A-OK! It is good, not great…read more As Lawtons locations go, it's definitely middle of the road. If I were grading it, it'd get a B- for "Satisfactory." If it were a student, it would blend into the background - not outstanding but not under-performing either. Above and beyond? Heck, no! Perfectly adequate is just fine!

This drug store location is my most frequented, simply because its so close to my place of living…read more Besides the factor of convenience, there is nothing about Lawtons to keep me coming back. Its a tidy, presentable store and covers all the basic tidings. Last minute trip? Yes... its the typical drug store to the rescue. With a postal center, medium-sized cosmetics section, pharmacy and all the isles in the between, Lawtons is likely to satisfy most. However, as a reoccurring customer, I've noticed poor, untimely service on more than one occasion. The people at the front cashes always seem to be more than adequate; however, its the cosmetics and postal peeps that have been off their game. I can say with confidence that EVERY time I've browsed the cosmetics section, I've been either blatantly ignored or exposed to loud conversations between staff members. If they, then, see me, and choose to make the effort, its never been with regard. This is a section of a store where people look to employees for expertise, and its just not present here. I've had a few bumps in service with the postal counter, as staff consistently appears stiff and reluctant to serve. The job gets done... but how about a little pep. Not a lot... I realize customer service can be grueling. But could you stop acting like I kicked your puppy? Sheesh. I'd like to see some friendlier service here to back up the convenience. Here's hoping, but I won't hold my breath.

WORST PHARMACY EVER!! I've been using this pharmacy for many years but I can't take it anymore and…read morewill change to another - any other - because they others can't be worse than this. I ordered a refill online and was told by the system that they would be ready in 48 hours. Having already experienced delays, I waited for six days before going in to collect it. It still wasn't ready!!! SIX DAYS LATER!!! I know they're busy, but I have managed staff and workflow for many years and it is clear to me that whomever is managing this pharmacy doesn't how to do it properly. If they need to hire more staff, they should. If they need to teach their staff how to deal with to customers politely, they should. If they need to figure out how and when to order medications so they can refill the entire (not partial) prescription, they should. There are so many problems with this place I could go on and on. Read the Google reviews and you'll see the same responses - good store over all, but terrible pharmacy. The staff in the rest of the store, including the staff managing medical appointments and vaccines, is great but the pharmacy is absolutely dreadful. Go anywhere else to fill your prescriptions. Shoppers, step in and change management - they don't know what they're doing.

literally the worst pharmacy staff I have ever witnessed in my whole life. The most inept lot of…read morelobotomies ever. They don't answer phones, are always late with pickup times, hell, half the time they literally forget to do the script. Every single time I am here I constantly hear "pharmacy queue!" over the loudspeaker. I've heard it like 8 times since I've been waiting here for a script they just forgot to refill. As I sit here I am actually overhearing a lady who is having trouble because the staff just sold her the wrong size needle for an infant injection or some insane stuff. Not even making this up. I don't know how the hell any of these people got hired to be honest. This is actually dangerous

As I pulled into the parking lot , actually looking for the liquor store, it was gone. In place…read morethere was this huge Pharmasave. Knowing I needed munchies for the evening, I decided to head in. Pharmasave are a different calibre. They are all independently owned. This one, is very nice. New and clean, great staff and all the amenities you need, including, a nice souvenir /gift ware section. Although I did not find the liquor store here, the staff were nice enough to direct me towards it.

Same pricing as the bigger Pharmacies and great staff!…read more This store is really good. I walked in expecting to pay a few dollars more than the more popular pharmacies, Shoppers and Lawtons. But I was proven yet again that assumptions are always wrong. Their pricing is just as good and they also take Air Miles. The staff are friendly and helpful but most of the time you have to ask them for help before they will offer it. That's alright though, since when they do start to help I never feel like I am putting them out of their way. They are happy to give me a hand. They have a good enough selection of products to choose from but I wish they had more of a healthy food section. They basically don't have one but do have a few products kicking around. And with so much space, I think they could afford to implement a food section. But at the end of the day, most things I want to get at a pharmacy are here. And given the fact that this Pharmacy is closer to me than the other ones, I'll be stopping by here before I go into the mega Pharmacies.
