I met the owner of Hancock Pharmacy Sai Chalasani, nearly 15 years ago when he opened Hancock…read morePharmacy located in Ansonia. I interviewed Sai for a local newspaper on the opening of his pharmacy in Ansonia. At the time, he told me that he came to Ansonia because most pharmacies didn't deliver medication, so they wanted to "pick up prescriptions and deliver them too". Sai seemed to be sincere in his desire to help his community. At the time. I was a regular CVS customer, but soon the long lines, long wait times, and rude service wore me down. Not all staff, nor pharmacists at CVS were bad, but the overall experience of getting medication at CVS was too stressful. I remembered Sai and Handcock Pharmacy and transferred my insurance and prescriptions to Hancock. What an amazing change. No long lines, no attitude, and true to his word, if you cannot pick up your meds, Hancock Pharmacy in Ansonia will deliver. I have developed serious health issues, and Sai and his staff have been available to answer questions, fill prescriptions, and deliver medication when I cannot leave my home. They have always been kind, respectful, and courteous. They may not have CVS' sales, coupons, or their after-holiday candy sales, but they get a thumbs up for a great pharmacy in Ansonia

I'm so glad I did and will be using them for all our Rx and vaccine needs moving forward. The owner, Mo, personally delivered my prescription tonight. He was friendly, communicative, and kind throughout the transfer and refill process. He just opened the pharmacy about 3 months ago after moving to Hamden from NY with his wife and toddler. They offer curbside pickup, free local delivery, vaccines onsite or at home, emergency fills, insurance billing, and discount partnerships. I'm excited to have a locally owned pharmacy to support instead of big retail chains!!! Wishing you lots of success, Mo and welcome to Hamden!

It's also frustrating when you expect the drive thru to be open because you have your sleeping child in the car, which is why the drive thru is great, and would be even better if it was open till 8 like the dispensary is!

Besides making routine prescriptions easy to manage and obtain, we also got our Flu and Shingrix vaccines there. When getting the first Covid 19 shot, they were the first to successfully direct us to a source, when all you could get during the initial rollout anywhere were busy signals or "no appointments left". They have been excellent in dealing with insurance companies and the complexities of dealing with the Oncology Dept of a major NYC hospital. We haven't thrown them a curveball yet they couldn't hit. Their prices are competitive but you won't get the same level of service at any price. It also has a wonderful gift shop that always has interesting gifts. Supporting KFP also supports a local business (not funding the acquisition of a major insurance company) and nourishes our community. I encourage everyone to fill their drug store needs mindfully and consider the gem that is KFP.

I've only heard wonderful things about this pharmacy from my community. I always hear that they're…read moreable to get medications in stock when other pharmacies are backordered. Unfortunately, I have did not have good experience here. One of the prescriptions that I usually get at my regular pharmacy was not available. I called Madison for assistance to see if they could get the medication. I was quoted a ridiculously high cost for this medication - a medication that is approved through my insurance for a $5 copay. The pharmacist told me that he would be able to get the medicine, BUT that it would cost me hundreds of dollars! This doesn't make any sense when it's a very low co-pay for me at any other pharmacy. He could not actually explain why the medicine was not covered at the regular $5 co-pay at Madison. All he kept saying is that the medication is expensive. Yes - it's expensive when you don't have insurance. But I have insurance and the medication is covered under it. This is quite alarming to me. I confirmed with my insurance company that I should be able to pick up the medication at Madison for $5. They confirmed this and even called the pharmacist to try to understand why they were quoting me hundreds of dollars. We thought maybe there was something that we were not understanding. When my insurance representative got back on the phone with me, he said that the pharmacist was claiming that he now suddenly could not get the medication (after he told me minutes before that he could). My insurance representative also said that the pharmacist seemed bothered and annoyed by the call, and tried to rush him off the phone - and also would not explain to him why their pricing was hundreds of dollars when it should've been meeting the insurance co-pay of $5. Something seems incredibly shady. For this reason, if you're able to get your prescription covered, I'm sure you'll enjoy the benefits that everybody talks about at this local pharmacy. But if you encounter something like what I encountered - beware. And call your prescription insurance company for cost verification before desperately handing over hundreds of dollars you don't have to. I hate to wonder, but In my opinion, it almost seems as though Madison was trying to price gauge (knowing the medication was unable to be obtained at my regular pharmacy) for their own benefit. Once they realized I was not willing to pay that ridiculous price, their tone suddenly changed, and then the medicine was suddenly no longer available to them. Something doesn't add up. I should add - in the past, I have had this same prescription filled at Madison a few times and never encountered this problem. And my insurance has not changed.
