After moving to Edmonds and seeing the positive reviews I was looking forward to being a customer…read moreof a local establishment. I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately I've been extremely disappointed. One of my meds they told me they do not have in stock and will not be ordering it. When I asked why not or if they'd ever order it they said not many of their patients request it. Other times when I've asked about it they said there is often a shortage because it's being over-prescribed which seems like the opposite issue then no one needing it. Still they never offered to carry it so I had to go to a separate pharmacy just for that med. My other meds became more expensive at Edmonds Pharmacy than the other pharmacies so I ended up transitioning them elsewhere. There is never a notification of meds being ready via text/phone or any other method so sometimes I'd go and they'd not have gotten the order or they had something waiting for me for a long time that I didnt know they filled. Today was the last straw though, I tested positive for Covid after having severe symptoms and wanted to get the prescription for Paxlovid filled nearby but when the provider contacted Edmonds Pharmacy they were told that they don't carry Paxlovid. My provider called me shocked and told me it was unbelievable they dont carry this of all things. Please think about the community you're serving and re-evaluate the decision to carry meds your customers are requesting.

After parking my car in an open spot, I went inside looking for a magazine to buy. Walking around the store, I found the newsstand section and a number of timely magazine covers. The magazines display made it so I could readily read the names of the different magazines. I opted for a LIFE magazine Jimmy Carter commemorative edition with a pre-tax price tag of $14.99. The copy showed no wear nor markings. In a different section, seasonal offerings - Valentine's Day on this visit, were varied and taste bud-piquing. To make both of my purchases timely in nature, I opted for a package of red velvet Reese's peanut butter cups. Workers at checkout were clear in communication and I encountered no issues with payment (total of less than $19 with tax for both items). I found the parking lot busier when I left than when I arrived.

I guess Walgreens isn't making enough money to properly staff their buildings.

I just went to Woodinville Compounding Pharmacy for the exact same medication, same 90 day supply. And boy was I shocked when not only was it ready early, they included the chicken flavoring we paid for, and the medication was only $13!!!!! Don't waste thousands like I did.

I cannot say enough good things about Northwest Pharmaceuticals Compounding Pharmacy…read more No matter what your pharmacy needs are - you should use these folks... but for folks like my wife who need special treatment, they're a God send. My wife has MCAS, which makes finding medications she can tolerate incredibly challenging. Even very small amounts of fillers, sweeteners, flavors, dyes, or unnecessary additives can cause reactions for her. She often needs prescriptions compounded with the absolute minimum number of ingredients possible, and not every pharmacy understands how critical that is. Mike, the owner, truly gets it. I've been the one working most directly with the pharmacy, and I am genuinely so grateful for the care and attention Mike has shown us. From day one, he has treated my wife's case with seriousness, patience, and real compassion. He has worked closely with her doctors to make sure each medication is compounded exactly the way she needs it, stripped down to the simplest formulations possible. Whenever something needs adjusting, he takes the time to talk it through and problem solve with us. What really sets him apart is how far he is willing to go for his patients. There have been times when our schedule or her health made it difficult to pick up prescriptions during regular hours, and Mike has been willing to meet me at the pharmacy on Sunday mornings when they are formally closed just to make sure my bride had what she needed. That level of dedication is rare. Living with complex medical issues can be overwhelming, but having a pharmacist who treats you like a person and not just a prescription number makes all the difference. My wife is definitely a special case with complicated needs, and Mike has consistently bent over backwards to make it work. We are incredibly thankful to have found him. I recommend Northwest Pharmaceuticals as highly as possible.

Mike worked patiently and graciously with the pet's vet in Oregon and myself on a very busy Saturday to create the necessary dosage for this animal. Needless to say, Poppy the dog had her next scheduled dosage right on time thanks to this wonderful Pharmacy owner.

The medication I take comes in 2 different doses in order to deliver the right amount. Every single time, the pharmacist decides I only need one of those filled and the other one was a mistake. This has been going on for YEARS. Now I get my meds in a 3 month supply to avoid dealing with the incompetence there so frequently. Now, they mess it up because they think it's only a 1 month supply and takes multiple trips to actually get all of my medications. Most of these trips I could avoid if they actually answered the phone. Every time I have a refill I attempt to call them at least 3 times and never had anyone EVER pick up the phone. Then the line is insanely long and the wait is typically 15-20 minutes to even talk with the rep. THEN when they don't have my meds ready I'm waiting for another hour. Only for them to CLOSE for 30 minutes. When I arrive in plenty of time but due to their incompetence I continue to need to make multiple trips. Over it. The only reason they have 2 stars is because they are kind. However kindness can only go so far. I'm so tired of this game every single time I try to refill my meds.
