This enchanted drugstore has stolen my heart. I've lived in beacon hill for 3 years now and have…read moremade the regrettable choice of never stepping foot in this store before last weekend. I've already transferred my prescriptions from CVS to Garys. Not only were all the workers exceptionally pleasant, every customer was just as nice! I was given great advice from the 'front of house' employee from makeup, to hair brushes, to oils. The other worker doing pharmacy was just as nice! I found eyeliner my mom used to wear from 1999-2005 that I haven't been able to find for years. It was like $4. I've also gone through maybe 20 hair brushes in the past year because they all sucked. The lady recommended a particular brush for my hair type and it's exactly what I've been looking for (and it was only like 14$). Just such good vibes. Old school. I want to go back to just hangout, but I won't because that's weird. Protect this place at all costs!!!

Even for being a small business, they have always carried whatever I've come in for. The pharmacists are generous with their consultations and give great advice that you'd have to wait on hold for with the nurse advice line. I much prefer to pick up my prescriptions here and get a thorough explanation (or with an inhaler I recently needed, a demonstration, since I've never used one) than picking something up from a big name, anonymous chain store. Glad to have them in the neighborhood.

The pharmacy here is WONDERFUL. The staff is EXCEPTIONAL…read more It can be extremely difficult to get topical/transdermal ointment made for a given drug from ANY pharmacy. In my experience, it's impossible from the big chains. Skendarian is one of the rare places that can not only create custom topical/transdermal medications, but do it exceptionally well. My Boston vet had directed me to an out-of-state pharmacy to make a topical version of the steroid my cat could not tolerate in liquid form. It would have taken at least five business days for me to get the meds, even paying for express shipping. I remembered that Skendarian can compound medications on site. I called them. They had the prescription cream it ready the same day they received the prescription! I'm embarrassed to write that this is not the first time Skendarian came through for our household when no other pharmacy could. The experience reminded me how critical it is to patronize local pharmacies for every day needs. CVS or Walgreens would not have done for me at all what Skendarian was able to do in ONE DAY. I wish I lived in Cambridge rather than Boston so I could do all my drugstore shopping there. They are the best. Seriously.

It is not worth dealing with them; find another supplier.

First, my pump was back ordered so took almost a week to ship. They sent me the wrong pump (said I specified that one based on handwritten notes.) Pump ended up being defective (had scratches on the case and tear in rubber casing where the tubes connected.) CMS refused to exchange it because I opened the box -- how would I know anything was wrong otherwise? -- and told me to call the manufacturer. None of which gets me the pump that I originally wanted and added a lot of stress for a new mom. Also, they charge $10 for shipping which the other pump suppliers DO NOT. I ordered from them thinking that going local was better -- but wish I had just ordered from an out of town supplier that may have actually helped me. Buyer beware.
