Queensborough Community Pharmacy
Nestled in the heart of Queensborough, this small but mighty pharmacy has been a pillar of the community for 13 years. Founded by Rob D., Queensborough Pharmacy came to life from his desire to provide a level of personalized care that big-chain pharmacies couldn’t match. “Some customers have greater needs,” Rob explains, “and I wanted the time and flexibility to serve them properly.”
A Pharmacy That Puts People First
At Queensborough Pharmacy, it’s more than just dispensing prescriptions. Rob prides himself on partnering with his customers to improve their health. From personalized consultations to doorstep delivery for less-mobile clients, the store offers a wide range of services designed with care and accessibility in mind.
“I believe it’s not enough to just hand out pills,” Rob shares. This philosophy is evident in every interaction, whether it’s making time for a senior who needs extra support or staying late on a Friday evening to ensure someone gets their medication.
One heartwarming story speaks to the depth of his care: while giving a flu shot, Rob noticed something unusual on a customer’s ear. Encouraging him to get it checked out, the man returned 12 days later with gratitude, explaining that Rob had effectively saved his life. The spot turned out to be an aggressive form of cancer, and thanks to Rob’s observation, it was caught and treated just in time.
More Than a Pharmacy—A Community Hub
More Than a Pharmacy—A Community Hub
Queensborough Pharmacy is more than a place to pick up prescriptions. It’s a space where neighbors stop in to say hello while out for a walk and where customers are treated like family. “I love the Queensborough area,” Rob says. “It’s small enough to get to know people and build real relationships.”
Rob’s connection to the community goes beyond his store. He contributes to local events and projects, such as supporting the Sikh Temple parade and helping create a video documenting the history of Queensborough. His efforts reflect his deep appreciation for the area and its people.
Even customers who’ve moved away from Queensborough remain loyal to Rob’s exceptional service, traveling from as far as Vernon to refill their prescriptions.
Convenience and Innovation
In addition to its warm, personalized atmosphere, Queensborough Pharmacy keeps pace with modern needs. Their robust online store specializes in vitamins, making it easy for customers to shop from the comfort of home. Exciting changes are also on the horizon, with new essential products arriving in the New Year and plans to potentially expand store hours.
Despite being conveniently located on Ewen Avenue, Rob knows some might miss his small storefront in the bustling neighborhood. “Many people come in and ask, ‘When did you open?’” he says with a smile. “The answer is 13 years ago!”
