It's the solid, dependable, friendly, 'go the extra step' helpful local business that I will go out of my way to support. It's got pretty much everything you would need from a modern pharmacy but with an old school style and feel. This works for me all day long.

Very clean and friendly. They had all the essentials from any drugstore that you might need. I pick them over the big chains, because it is best to support small businesses. They speak Japanese. Family owned. Plenty of parking right in the front. It is in the shopping center where you can go grocery shopping, get Thai food, Japanese food, drinks, ice cream, etc. very convenient location to get it all done at once. Highly recommended.

Akemi Yamashita (apharmacist) says "I don't know how many times I have to tell you the same thing over and over again"! When Trying to confirm a doctor telling me 20 mg over the phone about a dosage. When the clerk simply won't go beyond what paperwork says, "10 mg!". I just thought it was odd the doctor would prescribe a larger dosage than the OTC as the doctor instructed to pick up the prescription version. Relentlessly, Akemi wouldn't go beyond stating the OTC is the correct dosage and that's that. It's almost impossible to check with the doctor on my end due to busy signal of covid overflow. My point is if they aren't willing to hear you out about dosage confirmation after you spoke to the doctor about dosages and being incorrect after getting meds. Questioning the dosage shouldn't be a burden... after all pharmacists do call themselves "doctors"? This is over my mothers well being as she's been to the ER 2x and was denied being seen second time because of covid. The clerk has enough nerve to call me back to say the paperwork is here to pick up? When my point is to confirm with the doctor as I was instructed differently since I can't reach her. Instead the clerk told me in Japanese maybe Akemi is hot headed since she's young and new at this... unbelievable. A little respect would've been nice I hope the Yamashita family can give a slappy slap on the wrist for being a rude "pharmacist"? Need to tell moms never to go back. Hot garbage pharmacy

I have been going to this pharmacy for over 10 years. They remember your name and give you such a warm and personal care. So much better than generic pharmacy. I strongly recommend them. They have a wide variety of OTC and other medical goods as well.

Super annoyed because they would not accept return on a defective product. I am breastfeeding a newborn and sent my husband for a microwave heating pad. When I went to microwave it, as per instructions, my whole house smelled like a freakin' ashtray. It was terrible. I thought they sold me a used product that stunk from a smoking household after heating, but when my husband got home and took a look, it was actually because the product had a cigarette sized hole burn in it that stunk. Asked him to take it back and they wouldn't accept it. And yes, we had receipt and original packaging.

HORRIBLE!!! I am suffering with cellulitis, and I need my medication really bad, the pharmacist HAS the medicine, and would not fill my Rx, because, and I quote "you don't live in Gardena, and you've never been here before" I have NEVER heard of anything like that in my life. That is the epitome of ridiculousness!

Meiji pharmacy in Gardena is the best pharmacy. I have worked at Rite aid pharmacy for 10 years. After moving back to Gardena, I started going back there. The owner Cliff is fast and efficient. The workers are all very friendly. Since my Insurance, won't pay for my meds I had to choose between CVS,Wal Mart or Rite aid. I chose CVS, because it's within walking distance. They take Soo long to fill a script. When my doctor, sends my script to CVS the wait is ridiculous. I see people standing in line and they don't look too happy. If you want fast service, and to be treated like your supposed to be. My suggestion is to go to Meiji pharmacy in Gardena.

Meh. Looking to move about 10 medications for myself and my wife from our old pharmacy, since we've moved. Called these guys to ask a question about their overall pricing policy*. Was given two conflicting answers and then told the pharmacist would have to call me back in two days. Really? They need two days (and a pharmacist!) to answer a basic pricing policy question? I'm trying to imagine what it would be like, trying to get 10 or more medications filled correctly with these guys every month. No thanks - I'll deal with the line at Walgreens instead. * I wanted to know if they increase the price of medications to match the customer's copay. Some places (like Costco when I used to go there) charge the full copay for each medication, even if that medication costs less, basically raising the price of the medication to match your copay. Others charge a price based on the medication (and a markup, I assume), and if it's less than your copay, you pay the smaller price. This is why my current pharmacy charges me an average of about $4 per medication, resulting in a total of around $40, rather than the $200 (10 times our $20 copay) I used to pay at Costco.

I'm writing this review based on their customer service. I sent in a prescription for my patient that she needed ASAP to keep her out of the hospital again. She was took sick to pick it up and no one could get it to her in a timely manner. I called to see if they had delivery and sure enough they do! Because she lived outside of their delivery area it would be $10. The patient agreed out of desperation but I knew it was a financial hardship as both her and her son have cancer. The owner heard the situation and waived the delivery fee. This type of service you will NEVER get from a Walgreens, cvs etc. these small mom and pop pharmacies can make all the difference in someone's care. I also never had to wait on hold the 3 times I called, excellent customer service!!!
