Exceptional service. We needed medicine for my parents. The pharmacy was able to arrange stock and deliver the medication on the same day. The team really went the extra mile.
Really good staff! Very helpful and prompt. I had a really bad experience at my previous pharmacy, really happy I moved over. Recommend to everyone especially because they’re open 7 days a week even on bank holidays!
I had an excellent experience at Star Pharmacy! The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. They go above and beyond to answer questions and ensure you get the right medication. The store is clean, well-organized, and fully stocked with everything you need. Highly recommend this pharmacy for their outstanding customer service!
Excellent pharmacy, quick and kind. Now that I’ve moved house, I still travel all the way here even though I could pick somewhere closer. Just couldn’t go anywhere else!
Always really helpful & so friendly. Even when not dispensing my medicine, the pharmacist has given me second opinion and checked me over. Have ordered me needles in that I had trouble getting elsewhere also. So refreshing to find a pharmacy who wants to help and is kind!
