Fortunately, I went to the Bow Valley Primary Care Network office and was kindly directed to the Grassroots Pharmacy where I explained he situation to Olivia, the pharmacist. She was so extremely courteous, understanding professional, and extremely efficient. Olivia was able to coordinate a prescription refill for me in minutes. Shingles is extremely painful, and her professionalism and kindness were exceptional. The Rx and guidance helped relieve the very painful symptoms while I was on vacation. Grassroots Pharmacy and Lydia, you are exceptional and thank you!

First impression of the store was good. Looked like high end products but very cluttered. The…read morekicker was when the lady told my husband she wouldn't waste her time measuring him for a product he needed because he didn't have a perception on him..waste her time??? With no one else in the store. Horrible service. Will never recommend

So grateful to Val the owner for helping me choose the walker for my mom.

I have tried for the last 8 years to deal with Shoppers Drug Mart Pharmacy in Cochrane AB simply…read morebecause I moved to an acreage slightly closer to Cochrane than Calgary. I finally gave up. Here are my complaints (1) the staff appears to change constantly therefore whatever you have "solved" with the last group, goes right back into chaos with the new ones. (2) for the first few months they faxed for prescription refills to a number that was NOT my doctor. Then they faxed to a dr's fax that wasn't even at the right clinic. (3) They tell you your prescription has "been received". Or "come back in an hour" when it has NOT been received and has NOT been prepared. They have strange rules and regulations with regard to Alberta Health Care (when and what it will cover) and waiting periods (for a medication I have been on for almost 30 years). I discovered from my new (Calgary) pharmacy that neither philosophy (if I can call it that) was true. This pharmacy is inept in many ways.

I know this chain is very expensive and as a rule I never go there unless I really really need to…read morego there but I must've met the staff at the make up area and perfume area are very very good... One lady in particular is super helpful. I got some perfume and she could not have been more helpful I thought she was going to help me out to my car after the gift wrapping and fussing it was adorable... Plus she taught me how to download the app to saving money for that purchase and all future purchases. I've never been into apps and chip on cutting but it was super helpful. Thank you!

Stopped by to get some makeup and a wedding card. I got sticker shock when a few items totaled CAN…read more$50. Years ago we used to get gas in Canada to save money, but I think the tables are turned now and the American dollar doesn't go as far. I won't hold that against the pharmacy. They seemed to carry most everything that a typical pharmacy carries. There was a gracious lady at the counter who made a mistake in our favor and corrected herself. That was very nice. She was also very courteous. They had some winter coats there that were CAN $199. Guess you have to wait until the end of the Winter season to get some buys. Since it is off season here, I thank God that they were open because we may not be able to purchase these items in time for the wedding when we get back to the US.

They have cards for all occasions, small housewares, all of the usual drugstore stuff, some toys and games, among other things. The pharmacy was pretty quick today. They call your name over a speaker when your prescription is ready so you can browse the store while you wait. The dispensing fee today was $15.87 which is a little steep.

My husband lost his readers during our vacation, so we searched for a nearby pharmacy. This one was…read moreclosest to where we're staying. Super cute inside and out. The parking area is pretty large as it's part of a small strip mall. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We found a replacement pair of readers and were on our way! We didn't peruse the store much as we were in a hurry. I would say it's very similar to a Walgreens or Rite Aid in the states. Prices are reasonable. Would highly recommend.
