"Short version: Not getting back to chat messages or answering the phone is a huge issue for me"
"The hours are really terrible for office professionals"
"Whoever answered the phone February 8'th at 12:57pm was absolutely horrible"
"For some reason my provider sent my prescription to this pharmacy"
"After my son had a dermatologist appointment June 30th, the front desk at the dermatologist office told me they called in a prescription and I should have it in a few days"
Short version: Not getting back to chat messages or answering the phone is a huge issue for me. Longer version: Script went in on June 1st and derma said the meds are delivered and arrive within a day of the pharmacy calling me. No call the next day and they are closed for the weekend. I call on Monday June 5th-- no answer. The 6th I leave a "chat" message. There is no email address you just have to leave a chat message. Strange to me. This process of calling the number hoping for an answer continues for a week. My dermatologist put the script in again, no call from the pharmacy again. Anyway, about two and a half weeks later of me trying to get ahold of a person, somebody actually answered. Turns out, Apotheco had my phone number wrong in their system and said that was the one given to them by the derma. I called the derma to get my phone number corrected, but they had the right number, so I don't know where things went wrong. Now that we're set up, maybe I'll leave a review about how the refills go, but it took about two and a half weeks for the scripts to finally get to our home. Again, the fact that Apotheco did not respond to chat messages or answering the phone is a huge negative for me.
The hours are really terrible for office professionals. I called to let them know that I was on my way and expected to be there right around closing time. Then I asked if I could still pick up. They said I could pick up before the door was locked, but they had locked it by 5:02 anyway. Really wish they could have worked with me better after my call. I hoped to get my prescription faster than the delivery date but I need to wait anyway now. My initial prescription order also didn’t go through properly. The app told me it was confirmed but it had to be sent through again to actually be filled. After I couldn’t pick up on Monday, on Tuesday they offered to deliver it to my house. I gave them until after the holiday and called back today to follow up because I have not received it. Although the person I spoke to said that the prescription would be sent out the same day, the person today told me that it was still set for pick up. It never went out as promised. Two full weeks have gone by since I first requested a refill and I have had a significant lapse in my prescription because of online and in-store mishaps. It keeps getting more and more disappointing.
Whoever answered the phone February 8'th at 12:57pm was absolutely horrible. She was unnecessarily discriminatory against a low-income patient. I have county care insurance, Medicaid for those that don't know, and so as you can imagine not much is covered. I was previously prescribed a different medication by my dermatologist and filling it at this location was no trouble despite it not being covered. I had to pay out of pocket but that was expected. I was even given a coupon. The woman I spoke to this time insisted that that was impossible, could not have happened, and since I did not have coverage on my new medications they were not going to be filled. She was rude, short with me and refused to listen to my previous experience without interrupting me. She insisted that with the insurance I had I was not going to be able to get my medicine. I spoke with my dermatologist who has since sent me to a new pharmacy where filling the medication despite it not being covered was just fine, I paid out of pocket with a coupon that made it affordable. Just as I did through whoever I spoke to the FIRST time I went through this location.
For some reason my provider sent my prescription to this pharmacy. I told my provider that I wanted it to go one of my pharmacies because my insurance doesn't cover all pharmacies. The provider's assistant was adamant that the bill would be cheaper through this pharmacy. When the pharmacy called and told me how much the prescription was, and I was quoted the cost, I thought it was terribly expensive but asked is that after my insurance? And the representative told me, yes, it is after the insurance. I told her to go ahead and mail it to me. Later I checked my insurance and found out that my prescription insurance provider paid zero abd I was not informed. This thing is bad business and I am going to also contact the provider's office and make a complaint to them about this. So I paid full price for medicine that I should have only paid a copay for. And over the phone they should have told me that my insurance did not pay anything! I would have canceled canceled the prescription. I don't like being lied to.
After my son had a dermatologist appointment June 30th, the front desk at the dermatologist office told me they called in a prescription and I should have it in a few days. My son received 2 prescriptions. While I was driving home, someone from Apotheco called and said they could process one of the prescriptions but the other ne came from New York. I tried a couple of times to call back and get the details of the order that was coming from New York. I left at least one message. No one called me back and I wasn’t able to get ahold of someone until July 12th. At that point my 2nd medication ordered After the a I was told using this service. I asked why no one processed the order or why no one called me back. She said I needed to call in (I already spoke to someone) and a different person listens to messages. I think you could do a better job at ordering and following up with customers. If a customer calls and leaves a message, their cell should be returned promptly.
I’m giving it 2 stars because of the delivery, twice already I’ve had problems with delivery. Last month they’ve said that they attempted to deliver the medication but no one was home. Not true waited all day for it & called the next day to see what had happened. This time they said delivery time was between 1-5pm I specifically left instructions for them to ring me doorbell since I’m in a condo. The delivery person delivered the medication at 9:20pm which I think it’s a bit late. He called instead of ringing bell. My daughters were looking out for a ringing door bell I wasn’t near my phone luckily I was able to call right after it rang & the delivery guy was still around to deliver the package. In the envelope it had the instructions given by me. Who ever is doing the delivery is doing a terrible job, I normally give a decent tip in appreciation but not this time. Hopefully the delivery will improve, had no issues before but as I mentioned it’s the second time.
Do not use this pharmacy. I have been using Apotheco since early this year for my son’s medicine. I was told it was not covered by my insurance. I had questioned this at the time but they ensured me it was double checked and not covered. I have been paying out of pocket. Fast forward months and $750+ later I call my insurance to follow up and they tell me is covered the pharmacy should have requested for prior authorization from my doctor. I’m basically enraged. The money has come and gone at this point. It’s the principle of the matter. These people are trusted with your health and knowledge of your insurance, even after I had questioned the coverage on two occasions. I feel very taken advantage of. I’m going to be reporting to any and all agencies that are used to monitor this sort of fraudulent behavior.
I was directed to this place because I was told by my doctor that I could get my prescription delivered to my door on the same date, instead of going to my convenient, local pharmacy. This was on a Friday morning. Instead, at 4 pm, when my doctor’s office was closed, I received a text from this establishment saying that my prescription could not be delivered until Tuesday. I called and asked when I could pick it up and was told that they were closed all weekend. Therefore, I had to stop work and run over and pick it up right away if I wanted it before Monday. I did not have a good experience and would not go this route again.
Apotheco has amazing customer services and speedy turnaround time. The staff in-house is caring, warm and kind. Their team of area representatives, whom I was fortunate enough to speak with in my first encounter at the pharmacy, are informative, insightful and helped provide clear insight into the courier process. I love being able to pay online and the next day my medication is delivered right to me door. I always feel welcome to call over with questions on the medication. Thanks for the friendly care, answers to all my robust questioning and for your kindness, Apotheco LP team!
When I received a call from the pharmacy stating my doctor had sent them my prescription, I said I would not drive that far to pick it up and didn’t know why she sent the prescription there. The person on the phone was very pleasant and let me know that the doctor sent it to them because she knew it wouldn’t be covered by insurance and this pharmacy has coupons and discounts that other pharmacies do not have. She also said they could deliver it to me for free. I said yes! Please! And 2 days later it was delivered to my doorstep.
Apotheco contacted me the day after my visit to the provider to inform me that my insurance did not cover that particular medication. They told me they would contact the provider to see if there was an alternative or generic medication. The next day I was contacted again and told there was a generic product available at a much more reasonable cost. They verified my address and the prescription arrived the very next day. Customer service is excellent and the speed of delivery was very quick
This is the second time I’ve had issues with this pharmacy. The doctor recommended that I use them for a lower price. I need a next day delivery now the medicine says it will be delivered on Wednesday and the pharmacy is only open m-f 8-5. What if you need medication prescribed outside of this time window? Will not use again. Stick to CVS or literally anywhere else. People on the phone here also act rude and annoyed when asked questions.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS: Like other reviews, this pharmacy would pile on extra charges to your insurance with zero notice to you. I was charged for a prescription for the insurance negotiated price, but separately and without any billing information, a $500 to my HRA. No receipt, no text, no email, nada. I only found out months later when I realized that my HRA was exhausted.
Great delivery and love they provide this service, but I had difficulty actually placing the order. The text I received to finalize the order wouldn't let me order with my email address saying it was already being used by another account (my account), yet there was no option to log in. I finally used my secondary email just to get the order in. Very frustrating.
Ordering was easy, shipping was quick, and staff was very helpful in setting up my account. My doctor’s office sent them my information so they had a quote ready for me when we set up my account. The absolute best part? They found discounts to make a medicine that the chain pharmacy wanted $700 for only cost me $55. So happy my doctor recommended them!
Absolutely recommend! The pharmacist was incredibly helpful and kind. My prescriptions are *significantly cheaper* and delivered faster through Apotheco compared to the pharmacy I was previously using. They also gave me free samples with my prescription, which was an unexpected bonus (who doesn't love samples?). I wish I had switched pharmacies sooner.
Very dissaapointed! They keep sending me links to pay for my medication but for some reason it did not recognize my address. Called the pharmacy, they put my address in the system, still no luck. Keep calling the pharmacy, leaving messages...eventually someone called me back and....hug up on me!!! My prescription expired. End of story. Unbelievable.
Apotheco makes ordering our prescriptions so convenient! They are friendly and professional on the phone whenever I call. Unlike other prescriptions, we never run out before we refill. They contact us with reminders and easy links to set up our refills. Then they deliver it right to our door within a day or two. It doesn’t get easier than that!
What a great service. They charge an incredibly reasonable price for medications not covered by insurance (saving me potentially hundreds of dollars), use my insurance for medications that ARE covered and then on top of that, provide fast, free delivery. Customer service is top notch, too. Couldn’t recommend more!
Apotheco has exceptional customer service, great prices and a friendly staff. They deceiver your prescription to your door either same day or next day. Communication is always a top priority for them and it shows in everyone’s willingness to go above and beyond to accommodate people’s needs. 10/10 would recommend
Doctor sent my Rx to Apotheco when the price at CVS was too high (even with insurance). I was told it would cost around $35, but ended up being free with a manufacturer coupon Apotheco was applying at the time. Customer service over the phone was great and the free delivery was made earlier than expected.
The pharmacy representative on call was rude. She instead of listening carefully, was jumping on the conclusions when was asked of package not being delivered per their given time. I didn’t like the delivery service either. I was told I would get my medicine within 2 days but was delivered 2 days late.
Reading the delivery date would have help this score. I went to the trouble of postponing the delivery for 10 days while i was away from home. I was notified of the delivery 1 day after i left. In my mind, a pharmacy should be on top of following instructions. Kudos for quick turnaround.
They initially told me the medication was going to require prior authorization from my doctor. However, they called me back two minutes later and said they ran it again, and my insurance covered the full amount. Free shipping. Can't beat that! Overall a pleasant and painless experience.
I used Apotheco once recently. My insurance company at first was not wanting to cover the prescription. Apotheco reached out to me and the doctor and handled everything from there with the prescription covered and then shipped it out very quickly. The experience was impressively good.
Really easy and fast service! Had my prescription within a day. Only reason I’m giving 4 stars is I asked for delivery to be put over the gate (I live in the back of the building) they delivered it to the front units but luckily I was home at the time of delivery to grab it.
Great, personal, extremely friendly and helpful to us! They help to find discounts, work with your insurance to get the best price and service.Highly recommended your place. We thank you very much to help with our daughter's medication and needs. Thank you for everything ❤
Awesome from the time I got the text that they had received notification from my doctor for the prescription, to me ordering it to getting various updates and how quickly it was received with more notification. You don't get this with CVS or Walgreens. Very impressed.
This product is amazing for oily skin!! It helps to decrease the oil production and clear the skin. Extremely thankful thus far as it’s only been a week! The inflammation has tremendously gone done and it helps bring out the oily wax, yet decreases the oil production!
They were extremely quick and friendly. I couldn't pick it up so I was able to pay using my YSA card and have my husband pick up my medication. While it would of costs me $100+ from other pharmacy, they were able to find me a deal to just pay $10! Highly recommend!
Amazingly fast delivery. Accurate in every detail involved in filling each prescription. The entire pharmacy staff is ready to help with your questions about the medications and insurance concerns with professional and friendly service. We highly recommend them.
My first order was fine. My next two were not. One order after over a week I still haven't recvd. I called and was told they couldn't locate my shipment. The next my Dr order for a 60g tube I recvd a 30 but was charged more that I was for the 60g size.
The process was effortless, it came quick and the price was right. Thank you! Update on 2/16/23 Apotheco Pharmacy continues to be an easy effortless pharmacy to use. The cost and ease of use is second to none. I highly recommend them at this time.
Apotheco is an awesome pharmacy. When I had a problem with my insurance with a retail pharmacy, my doctor recommended Apotheco. I haven't had an issue with them since day one, and the prices are great. I highly recommend giving Apotheco a try!
They have been so great and efficient for getting my prescriptions easily delivered to me. I get notification texts when a refill is due, it takes less than 5 minutes to request the refill, and the delivery is super fast! Highly recommend!
Apotheco has great rates, fast delivery, and makes it simple to complete your order thru a texted link. I’m a medical assistant at a dermatology office & we always tell our patients about Apotheco because of how reliable & simple it is.
First time using Apotheco and had a great experience! At first I was nervous when my dermatologist said they use a different Rx provider but within a couple hours they had my information and were working on my Rx. My insurance wouldn’t
Superman fast! Was excited to try the new prescription my Dr had called in Weds last week, received it Saturday morning already; very pleased. Price remarkable. Came with several quality travel size samples. Great experience, thanks!
Ordering here was so quick and easy! They automatically applied a coupon making it cheaper than if I had gone through any other pharmacy. The delivery is all convenient and super fast! I am extremely satisfied with my experience here
Super fast delivery and amazing customer service!!! They also helped me by giving me a discount and dropping the price of my prescription from $1300 to $35. That is amazing!! I hope I get to work with them again! Totally recommend.
Apotheco Makes our monthly prescription delivery very easy and stress-free. The staff is courteous and professional I always receive my child’s delivery within 24 hours delivered right to my home which makes my life very easy.
Extremely fast shipping & costs are reasonable, would absolutely use them again. They came through again with a coupon to bring an otherwise expensive skin cream in, at a reasonable price. Apotheco is great. Highly recommend!
I am beyond grateful and happy that this pharmacy was recommended by our Dermatologist. They were quick and professional. I received text updates and my prescription was delivered within 3 days! Thank you so much Apotheco!
My derm recommended Apotheco since my prescription was so expensive everywhere else. Not only was it most affordable at Apotheco but they shipped and delivered to my home! And it was fast shipping too! Highly recommend!
I think my dermatologist's office works with them. They've given the medication that my insurance wouldn't cover for a very reasonable price. They were fast on the delivery and overall had a great experience with them.
It was easy and fast but they didn’t get insurance clearance. They were supposed to double check but I never heard back so I am sure they didn’t. Had to pay full freight. Next time, I’m going to insist going elsewhere
Professional, friendly, and super speedy shipping (w/ a friendly ring of the bell before driver hopped back into the car, which I really appreciated because it was bitter cold outside and my product would've froze).
FINALLY! A company with phenomenal customer service! Excellent clear communication down to earth nonrobotic human beings. My order was correct and was a quick delivery with tight packaging. Highly recommend!
Fast - speedy service. but my packages are always left on my door step in plain view. I have asked for my packages to be placed in a more secure area - like under my doormat - out of plain view.
I needed an expensive cream that my insurance didn't cover. Apotheco had the best price and delivered it to me less than 24 hours from receiving the information from my doctor. It was so easy!
Product came on expected date and in good condition. Product would have cost $159 at Walgreens or $78 using GoodRx at Walgreens. Using this service, I only paid $10. I highly recommend them.
They were very quick to get my Rx filled and shipped to my home. Filled and shipped same day, received in 2 days. Would recommend for any of your Rx needs!!! Great customer service!!!
Apotheco has been very helpful in getting my prescription and even ahead of the refill date.. the correspondence is very prompt and the delivery very quick. Thank you for everything!!
Ordering was super easy and customer service was pleasant and friendly. They kept me informed of my order from start to finish and delivery was quick. Highly recommend this company!!
I received a call about my order and the price was very reasonable! I put a card on file and they sent it out right away! My order very quickly and packaged well! Will use again!
I was contacted very quickly after my doctor ordered my prescription. It was delivered to my doorstep within 24 hours! It saved me a ton of money! Their prices are phenomenal!
Great service. Great delivery. Great product. Easy order and payment process. Sweet customer service and help. Thank you. Great vendor to associate with. Thank You so much.
The whole experience was very smooth. After receiving the prescription from my doctor the quickly contacted me and followed up too. The delivery was super convenient too
They are always so helpful and quick! Customer service is polite, professional and attentive. I got a same day delivery from them on a refill and I was so happy!
Very easy to have prescription filled and delivered to my home. easy to navigate online to pay my co-pay Delivery was quick and came days earlier than expected
Super fast and convenient! And they’re really helpful navigating different payment options and evaluating what’s best for you (insurance, out of pocket, etc.)
This pharmacy is very easy to deal with. There was an issue with verifying my insurance. They handled it promptly. I received my prescription the next day.
So fast!!! Came sooner than I thought! I ordered on a Thursday night and it was at my door by Monday morning! Really user friendly way to order as well
Great communication, my prescription arrived super fast!! Well packaged , great prices, will definitely keep using them for all my prescription needs…
Super easy to use. They called same day Rx was submitted and got the script in the mail super fast. We will definitely continue to use their services.
So easy! My doctor sends them my RX, they text me a link to fill out address and it’s on my doorstep within 1-2 days!! They even take my insurance!
So convenient for living in the suburbs!! It was delivered in 1 day. Text message follow up to ensure delivery and satisfaction. Great company.
Everyone at Apotheco was very knowledgeable and friendly and quickly delivered my prescription to me in Huntley. I was pleasantly surprised.
Super speedy shipping and prescription arrived as ordered and even included some great free samples. Ordering process was simple and quick.
Great experience with Apotheco. Needed a prescription not covered by insurance. Apotheco worked and found a coupon that saved me hundreds.
Amazing pharmacy! I live in the NW suburbs of the city; they never fail to deliver my prescription in less than 4 days! Always super quick
I received the medicine in time with no delay. The medicine was dropped in front of my house. Thank You Apotheco Pharmacy Lincoln Park.
Quick and easy ordering especially with the app they use to get your RX. Had to call once as well and staff is friendly and efficient.
So fast and easy to use. Our prescriptions were delivered the next day. Prices were decent. Will definitely continue to use Apotheco.

Easy to order, called with question and they answered straight away. Prompt, courteous and professional. Received Rx quickly
Very little contact but received medication quickly. When I did speak with them, they were efficient and professional.
Excellent working with them. My rx needed a new PA due to new insurance and they took care of it all very quickly.
The associate was knowledgeable and experienced. She made it very easy to order by phone and there was no hassle.
Fast delivery and since I live in an apartment I never get my packages delivered straight to my door but they do!
This pharmacy makes it so simple to get medications. Shipped right to my door, so convenient. Highly recommend!
Pharmacy was amazingly easy! Delivered meds as promised and on time. Prices are better than any pharmacy around
Very easy process to get my accutane! just answer a couple questions online and it’s at my door the next day
