One of my favourite compounding pharmacies. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I have been working with this pharmacy for years and often send patients here for specific products. Highly recommend!

Good service from the pharmacy. I was in a rush to get home, otherwise I would have spent more time looking around. They have a great selection of vitamins, herbal products, local honey, and teas.

Very disappointed with my experience at Nutrichem Pharmacy. I purchased vials of PIO, and one of them was clearly short — just over 8 mL instead of 10 mL. I called the pharmacy and was told they would look into it, but I never heard back. On top of that, their pricing is extremely inflated. I later transferred my prescription to another pharmacy and paid $135 for the exact same PIO they charged me $280 for — literally more than double. Would not recommend.
