Marina Pharmacy, Marina Del Rey CA

I’m all for supporting small business but this is not the place. The owner is legitimately the rudest human. He should not be customer facing if he hates his customers and job so much.

Recently I went in to pick up a prescription he had said he would have for me on Monday. When I arrived He told me to hold on they were very busy. Okayyyy I was the only person in the pharmacy. But If he says he’s busy he’s busy sooo I waited patiently for a few minutes while he answered calls etc vs dealing with the human standing inside his pharmacy.
Once he finallllly addressed me he told me he doesn’t carry the medicine I was there for. (Would have been nice if you asked me when I walked in what I was there for and saved me the time of waiting while you answered multiple calls and did everything but assist me) I said “that’s strange because I called you a few days ago and you specifically told me to come in because you would be getting it on Monday. ” Then he rudely said “I don’t carry that medicine. ” Okayyyy

He’s just really a miserable human. This is not my first terrible interaction with him. I always go in friendly and agreeable with high hopes he’ll mimic an ounce of my kindness back to me when speaking with me. Nope. The way he speaks to his customers is mind blowing to me.

Also I saw the review below talking about how he prioritizes which customers he gives prescriptions to. I can confirm that he has done this to me. And I don’t doubt it’s how he operates regularly.
A friend had gone in to pick up the same prescription I needed. They chatted he mentioned having plenty blah blah so I went in a few hours later to pick up mine and he said “he hasn’t had that prescription in his pharmacy for weeks. ” I said “hmm that’s strange because you just filled it for X earlier today”

The distaste I have for this man and this place is on another level. If he’s good to you, enjoy. But if you’re looking for a new pharmacy or want to support small business DO NOT BOTHER! He hates new customers. Even if you’ve been going there regularly for months.

The pharmacy is easily assessable clean kind everyone always happy to help.when i am unable to go they are so lovely to deliver i always appreciate with a tip i have gotten shots and vaccines.it’s a place with no anxiety bari l
