“First time coming into this pharmacy and already decided to switch here. The workers are so kind and the Tech is incredibly helpful, he helped me find stuff for my seasonal allergies which is also 10% off for the season. The pharmacist explained to me in incredible detail all the effects of my medication. I definitely recommend switching here it’s an amazing pharmacy!!!”
“First class service! They found a manufacturer's coupon code to cover the high co-payment for a brand medication. I wasn't aware of the coupon. Another instance of their great service is that when my doctor prescribed medication for a COVID infection, the pharmacist brought the bag to my car. He even offered to wait until I was healthy to collect the co-payment. The staff is mostly the same each day. CVS and Walgreens move people around so much I couldn't keep track of them.”
“We found this pharmacy by chance while desperately searching for a place that could compound a prescription ointment, and it turned out to be such a blessing. Our baby had severe diaper rash due to diarrhea, with significant redness and skin breakdown. Regular diaper creams were not helping at all. Our doctor prescribed a compounded ointment, but after visiting several pharmacies, we were told none of them could make it. Our baby was in a lot of pain and crying constantly, which was heartbreaking. Thankfully, this pharmacy was able to help. The pharmacist, Dr. Dave, truly felt like a ray of light in a very stressful moment. Although the ointment was originally scheduled to be ready the next day, I explained how uncomfortable our baby was and asked if there was any chance we could get it sooner so he could sleep more comfortably. Dr. Dave kindly agreed—and incredibly, he prepared part of the medication within just a little over an hour. I was deeply moved by his compassion and dedication. I am so grateful to Dr. Dave and the entire pharmacy team for their kindness, professionalism, and empathy. When I picked up the medication, I was rushing because I was worried my baby would cry in the car, so I didn’t get the chance to fully express my thanks in person. That’s why I wanted to share our wonderful experience here. Highly recommend this pharmacy to anyone who needs compounded medications or compassionate care.”
“Zhina the pharmacist is amazing. Throughout the pandemic I was able to purchase items such as Tylenol along with additional pharmacy items for my children and I. Zhina always offers to order items not in stock if the items are available elsewhere and I appreciate her so much for that. The pandemic has truly strengthened our sense of community and I value that so much.”
“My Walgreens in Cliffside Park feels like the neighborhood store I remember from childhood, where a simple visit comes with a friendly face and a warm welcome. The staff are so kind, and they make everyday errands feel personal. It’s a modern store with that familiar, old-fashioned sense of community. That feeling is what keeps me coming back. I hope this team knows how much their kindness means.”
