Melbourne Boulevard Pharmacy

"Wouldn’t issue a script as I was told there were no repeats, despite it showing one remaining. Went down the road and got prescription filled at another pharmacy. Service is too slow."

"Left the chemist today (1 March 2023) quite disappointed. I went in to get Panadol for kids and the lady communicated that there's been a price hike and I reciprocated the conversation by stating that there seems to be a shortage too. Then as she put in the amount on the debit machine, it was for $34.95 - reluctantly tapped my card for the charge as I desperately needed it for my child who is sick with a fever. I didn't question it due to the rush, but left dismayed and in disbelief with such a price hike (over $10 of industry price) for children's panadol. This independent price hike warrants a possible reportable situation."

"Have been in twice and both times the pharmacist has tried to upsell me on vitamin B as a cure for depression offering potentially dangerous advice for long term users of SSRI's. Additionally when informed my vitamin B levels were fine she continued to tell me (biomedical honours student at Melbourne university) that vitamin B levels couldn't be tested which is a flat lie. Significant up charge too on medication. You're better taking a little extra time and going to the Chemist warehouse on Sturt street."

"Went in for a cold and flu tablet. The attendant only offered me an expensive natural medicine, which she took from a shelf and headed for the counter without showing it to me or telling me how much it was. She was then very rude when I elected to buy Codral instead. She said, rather judgementally, “we never use that stuff here” and was brusque to me throughout the whole payment process. Would not recommend this pharmacy unless you are able to push for what you want and don’t mind rude staff!"
