“I had an amazing experience at this location. Shogofa provided outstanding service, she was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to my needs. She went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend this location.”
“I’m not sure how to articulate this pharmacy, but it has always been an oasis of calm going in - whether it was to get seasonal flu or Covid vaccines, or just grab a snack. The people there are very knowledgeable and friendly, and I feel relaxed and happier having gone there. It’s also very easy calling in to book appointments for me and my family. If you want a break from a larger, busier drug store, this is the spot.”
“I work as a medical assistant and am a customer with Rumballs. They are wonderful with our patients and for me, when i was ill for a long time, they really became my community.”
“This pharmacy is amazing. They tried their best to help me out to get the prescription I need for my son.And offer to call my doctor to confirm the prescription sent to me via email.
While their competitor did not even offer an alternative resources to confirm with our pediatrician about the scripts that was sent to me via email .
Thank you again so much. For helping us above and beyond.”
“My wife and I got our booster jabs here. They were friendly, efficient and the jab was painless. She has the magic touch. But what's even better is that they sell Soft Finnish Licorice!!!”

“Unlike big pharmacy chains, Dawes Drug Mart conveys high professionalism but also has that family business feel, which has made me feel welcome at every single visit. Not only has the pharmacist ensured timely renewals of my prescription by communicating with my doctor, but also remembers my name and my circumstances. This personal touch has convinced me that I am in good hands at Dawes Drug Mart. I recommend this pharmacy over the big chains any day!”
“Excellent pharmacy with very professional staff. There is a very nice cafeteria right nearby that you can wait in while your prescription is being filled. Staff are very helpful.”
“I decided to change pharmacies as I was changing doctors and my old pharmacy would not give a few pills that I needed since I could not see my regular doctor the day I was booked due to a combination of physical and psychological issues, and that my long time soon to be former doctor was rarely filling the prescriptions slightly before I would need the refills even with plenty of notice, the information on his and the former pharmacys file, and with requests by phone and email to the doctor. Pharmasave Pape Cosburn was extremely helpful in getting through my distress without my needed psychological meds, as I had barely slept the previous two or three nights, by providing an emergency supply of those meds until I was able to see a doctor for an emergency refill. They also have really good prices on over the counter pharmaceutical meds and basic hygiene care, especially compared to the big chain pharmacies. Somewhat limited hours and delivery only on Tuesdays and Saturdays, but if you can handle 10-6, sometimes 7 pm weekdays and 10-2 Saturdays, closed Sundays and you are a reasonable distance away by transit, give this pharmacy a try--for its prices, it gives the SDM nearby a run for its money on over the counter stuff and basic care.”
“DrugSmart Pharmacy deserves 5 stars for the knowledgeable service from the pharmacists and staff. Prescriptions are processed in a timely manner, and staff routinely deliver to the doors of patients in the densely populated Taylor Massey neighbourhood high rises. The pharmacists and assistants know patients by name, which builds a strong sense of community. This pharmacy also contains an on-site doctor's clinic, as well as an OLG lottery machine and convenience store snacks.
Note that the location may be difficult to find - it's located on the pedestrian walkway level.
1. If visiting the pharmacy from Victoria Park subway station, follow the sign towards the Crescent Town Bridge walkway and walk diagonally towards the high-rise towers.
2. If visiting the pharmacy from Crescent Town Road, it's necessary to turn onto Massey Square and walk up the ramp near the 5 Massey Square service entrance.”

“I went in the other day and Dana was amazing. The older woman at the counter was perhaps having another bad day. I had to have a refund done and Dana came over and took me to another part of the store and did in in minutes. Dana is awesome and is genuinely friendly. A nice change from the front cashier.”
“Shady and staff are fantastic. I love the informal communication of casual emails and I feel they are part of the community. Great small business worth supporting.”
