Invigor stopped shipping Tri-Mix to CA, so they never told me they were going to have another local compound agency, this one. I've been using Tri-Mix for penile injections for awhile , on and off for the whole year. This new compound supplier either got a bad shipment of the medications that comprise the Tri-Mix Injections. My first injection was 10 units and after 10 20 minutes, nothing but a soreness and itching and burning. Thinking I injected it in a wrong area, I stopped and went to bed to sleep. Tried again two days later, thinking I need to inject a little more, this time severe redness and half of my flaccid shaft was swollen and looked like puffy ring around the base. I immediately called Ambrosia and they will check other patients and ask if any side effects occurred with the batch they used on both of us. At first the pharmacists thought I was injecting it too deep, etc., I assured him I have done this many times. I suggested he should try the exact Tri-mix he sent to me via 10 unit into his penile shaft, and let me know of it feels. He declined due to his health. I reiterated it's one of the formulas they used, either Pap 30mg; Phen 2mg, or Pros 20 mcg and asked why it was shipped to me from Ambrosia in pre-mixed liquid form and not in powder form that the patient usually mixes with sterile water in another vial? I e-mailed Invigor and called Ambrosia, they promised to contact Invigor to find out what went wrong. As a courtesy of my painful ordeal in which I have never experienced before with other compound companies; one of these companies owe me an apology and a refund. I am waiting for a response from Invigor and Ambrosia promised he will investigate the lot numbers of the components that were used to make tri-mix and will get back to me.

They're not the easiest to find being tucked behind Kaiser Permanente at Cook and Gerald Ford, but they are well worth the challenge. For years, I went to another compounding pharmacy in Palm Desert for an injectable medication. This went on until they raised their prices. Then I went to a different compounding pharmacy in Riverside, until THEY got too expensive (jacked the price and cut the strength in half. Both pharmacies charge extra for syringes, usually around $5/pack of ten. Ambrosia Compounding Pharmacy is not only $10 less, but they give me two packs of syringes at no extra cost! The medication needs to be kept cool, and the Palm Desert pharmacy would include one cold pack, but it will cost you $2.50 for each additional. Easy comparison: FP in Palm Desert = $160, plus $5 (or $10), plus $2.50 per cold pack. MS in Riverside = $165, plus $5 or $10, no cold pack given. Ambrosia Pharmacy = $150, includes ten syringes AND two cold packs! Simple math.

There's no feeling quite like being a freaked out parent whenever you get on a plane and realize that you forgot your kid's refrigerated medicine in the airport where you just took off from. We had been in over our heads trying to get a medication for our son as he has a mechanical heart valve and Ambrosia pharmacy was able to swoop in and have a prescription transferred from our Originating state and have it ready within a few hours. I would recommend this place to anyone who has compounding needs or is traveling in need of a pharmacy. Their service is wonderful and they are extremely friendly and did everything they could to alleviate our worries. Kindness and quickness was extremely appreciated in this stressful situation. Thank you so much Ambrosia staff for going above and beyond.

Always ask "morning or afternoon" delivery, and never meet their agreement. One set of staff says one thing, another says something different and NOTHING changes.

Nice folks, good communication; however, my compounded pain cream medication varied in consistency & effectiveness from one fill to the next.The first time, I received the pain cream in plastic jars, and the cream was extremely effective. It was also thick. (I still have some!)The second time, I requested tubes instead of jars, and the cream is very runny and ineffective. (I still have some of that batch, too.) But what recourse do I have? I'm very disappointed because it was very expensive. I think I'll switch to a different compounder for the next refill.

For the first time ever I feel like a Dr actually heard me! 46 and in perimenopause desperate for help and after my normal doctor prescribed antidepressants (that I hate) not only because they make me feel nasty but I don’t like to take medication I prefer natural remedies. I was refer to Ambrosia Compounding Pharmacy by my General on a job site none the less… I spoke with the doctor and told him my issues and right away he heard me, discussed my blood work , validated my suspicions and gave me a glimmer of hope and excitement! Received my prescription of progesterone in two days threw the post office and now I feel like there is a glimmer of hope! So nice be heard by a doctor for the very first time! Thank you!

Don,t waste your money on the ON-Q pain relief system. Did not work at the hospital, or at home. Home care nurse finally got it to work, and the system emptied in 20 hours, not 3 days. Called Ambrosia and was told without the ON-Q system, we were out the $300.00. The home care nurse also called, and she was told the same thing. Terrible customer service. My wife is having her other knee done, and we will NOT be purchasing this system again.

Always on top of things! Ambrose had been great about refilling my prescriptions and letting me know promptly when they are ready. MUCH better than the last compounding pharmacy I used previously in Palm Springs. I highly recommend Ambrosia, based on my experience with them, vs my experience with other compounding pharmacies.

My original review was for Town Center Compounding Pharmacy in Palm Desert near or on El Paseo. That place closed down. I guess they were purchased by Ambrosia, which is an entirely different location and a different setup which does not include the previous pharmacists. I don't have much to say on Ambrosia but I miss Town Center Compounding Pharmacy dearly. Ambrosia really should have started a separate Yelp page rather than just take over the previous pharmacy's page.

The customer service, since this pharmacy moved, has steadily gone downhill, culminating in THE most unfriendly exchange I have experienced in a long time. It started, this morning, with the girl sitting at the front desk who misquoted the price on the amount I owed. When I questioned it, she became more rude and finally agreed that I was correct on the price of the progesterone. Her rude behavior set a bad tone; she made me feel uncomfortable for even standing there. So abrupt and grating. Very sad today and very disappointing!!!
