Best pharmacy service around.

Preston’s is the best choice if you need a compounded medication or an unusual medication. They seem to work miracles that HOSPITAL pharmacies and chain stores can’t do!
Patricia
I got tired of all the robocalls from CVS re prescription refills I didn’t need. And I decided to support a small local business instead of a big corporation. So I moved all of my prescriptions to Preston’s and I’ve never regretted it. I need to remember that it isn’t open on Sunday (but I like the idea that the staff gets to have a day completely off). Otherwise, I’ve been very happy with their service. The prescription refill phone number works 100% of the time, and there is almost never a line.

Friendly, smooth and very professional.

Best pharmacy around! Staff and pharmacists are extremely attentive, knowledgeable, nice, helpful, and have many times by gone out of their way to work with me whenever a problem has come up thanks to my overpriced, lousy health insurance being nothing but an on-going conundrum, at the very least, 99% of the time. They’ll special order rare pharmacy items, from finely ground l-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to wheelchairs to essential oils and certain homeopathic remedies! Did I mention that they also will deliver? And they’re a compounding pharmacy to boot – an extreme rarity in this day and age! In fact I think they may be one of the very few remaining compounding pharmacies left in the region. Basically, they know what they’re doing and are great to deal with. 5-stars. They make CVS Pharmacy look worse than the red-tape-unhelpful-stupid company it already is – yes I LOATHE cvs with a passion – and never fill scripts than unless it’s an absolutely dire Emergency.

They are a true pharmacy able to compound many prescriptions that the chain stores are unable to do.
