Hoboken Family Pharmacy

Looks are deceiving! This was an amazing experience.
We went to the urgent care, a few doors down and decided to fill our perception here instead of walking to the CVS. (It’s important to us to support the local businesses when we can!)
I had a few questions about my antibiotic and concerns about digestion during taking it. The pharmacist explained which probiotic would be best and why. And gave us tons of helpful tips on how to take the medications so they were most effective. We were blown away with this guy.
Best. Pharmacy experience. Ever.
.

Jaffer and the staff are some of the most professional and personable crew in town. Highly recommended.

Very tranquil and friendly place. There’s probably everything you may need. I found what I wanted. The farmacist was nice. What else could i want…

The pharmacist is wonderful and says hello to me every time I come in. Very personal service. As a healthcare provider myself I really appreciate this pharmacy and the excellent service they provide. I go here over cvs whenever possible.

Duane Reade wouldn’t take my insurance but these people took the time to look it up and saved me ~36 dollars on an antibiotic I’ve had before. Go here for all prescription needs.

They are very respectful and very better than CVS and other corporations. Their price is actually cheaper than cvs, but not sure why they have$$$$!!

Hands down the best pharmacy I’ve ever been to. I had stupidly been going to CVS just because it’s right outside the path. The long waits, along with the extremely rude staff and very high prices turned me off. The guys at Hoboken Family are friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. As long as I’m in Hoboken, these guys will be getting my business.

The service here is miles better than the other Hoboken pharmacies I usually visit (Walgreens and CVS). They are quick and friendly. I wish I found them sooner.

I am so lucky to live around the corner. I agree with others that this is the absolute best pharmacy ever. Excellent, friendly service and one of the best things about Hoboken is getting to know the local business owners and being greeted by name. Highly recommend to everyone I know.

BEST. PHARMACY. EVER.
Jaffer and his crew at Hoboken Family Pharmacy are absolutely incredible. I started using them a few years ago at the recommendation of a local doctor. While, in the past, I had always used big-​name pharmacies, I figured I’d give it a try since the doctor raved about them, and conveniently, I only lived a block away.
This is the type of business built around the needs of their customers. The employees always remember your name, greet you with a smile, and go above and beyond to accommodate you in every single way. They don’t carry something you want? Let them know, and chances are they’ll get it in stock. Literally, the best pharmacy ever…
Which is why I moved all the way into Manhattan but continue to give them my business. :)

Excellent!
After going to CVS on Newark Street for the past 7 years I ‘d pretty much had enough. Those people are RUDE and the wait is awful usually. I brought a script to CVS — I was in severe pain after dental work and asked how long it would be to fill it. The B*tch at the counter pretty much threw the script back at me and told me they were out of stock — didn’t offer to order more or call the other TWO CVS pharmacies in Hoboken. Now, my doctor had called them an hour prior and they said they had it — when I asked the girl about this she smirked at me and said there must have been a rush to get this prescription… I asked her to call the other two cvs pharmacies and she acted offended… anyway I decided it was time for a new pharmacy.
I took it to Hoboken Family Pharmacy — script was filled within 10 minutes by the nicest guy! The place is clean and welcoming. It was completely easy to transfer my insurance information. Looking around, they have a large stock of otc medications as well other things one might need [toothbrushes, soap, shampoo etc.] I asked to speak to the pharmacist b/​c I had some questions and he spoke with me within 2 minutes of asking. They even deliver! I am DEFINITELY giving them my business from now on.

Don’t go there. No ethics, the worst generic drug pushers !!! They lied to me on 2 occasions. Once they told me that there is no more brand Nasonex and today they lied twice a out Z Pack. First they told me that brand is no longer made and then in front of me they put the box behind the counter. I had to buy it from Walgreens full price. Never, ever will go here again and will tell all of my friends in Hoboken. Shame on you !!!

Best pharmacy ever. Do not go to the CVS! The women running the pharmacy are rude and it costs more money. Jaffer is so nice and helpful, as are the rest of the workers. I always leave smiling.

Last month was the first month I didn’t have my works insurance so when I went to fill it at cvs it was $ 180!!! Unbelievable but I had to fill it! My doctor recommended I call around to check on prices … I called hoboken family pharmacy and it was $ 30!!! $ 30!!! I will NEVER go back to cvs or Walgreens again! Amazing and amazing service!!!

This pharmacy and staff are wonderful, not only do they fill your prescriptions in 10 minutes or less, they also will go out of their way to help you with anything. They know who you are when you walk in the door, their prices are great, it really is top notch service. Such a refreshing change from the chain drug stores in town.

There are not enough stars in this rating scale to properly review the team at the Hoboken Family Pharmacy. If you live in hoboken, this is the only pharmacy you ever need to go to.
my child has a medical condition that requires some pretty fancy compounding of medications. This was the only pharmacy in hoboken that knew what they were talking about and could do it. i put my child’s life in their hands every single day and i have NEVER had a second thought about it. i trust them completely.
the staff is amazing! super friendly and the service is second to none. we live at the most northern end of town and still ONLY use this pharmacy.

Great, caring staff!

This pharmacy is fan-​freakin-​tastic. The reason for this is the fact that the owner/​pharmacists really cares about service, his customers, and getting you out the door quickly. Pet friendly too… score!
I came in after a trip to the walk-​in clinic next door with a horrible case of the flu. I walked out with my scripts filled in less than 10 minutes. CVS would have told me to come back in 2 hours. The pharmacists that proceeded to apologize that my insurance copay for one of my prescriptions was very high and offered to call them. Knowing this type of business and how things work, I knew it would be a fruitless effort and passed on the offer. But come on… That’s some service! He also let me know that I could just give them pharmacy phone numbers and they’d get any standing scripts I have transferred. They also have free delivery. I know these guys need to have stand-​out service to compete with the «big boy» chains but they really go above and beyond.
Do yourself a favor and support this neighborhood family business… It’s just another part of what makes Hoboken awesome.

My wife first went into Hoboken Family Pharmacy a few months back to pick up some natural soaps for our newborn. She came away impressed with the service and the attention and made a point to me to try them the next time we needed anything from the pharmacy. So when I had to get a refill on a prescription, turned to them and I’m glad I did.
The prescription was originally filled at a large chain pharmacy. Service was good enough but I can’t say it was anything to write about on Unilocal.But unsure as to whether or not Hoboken Family Pharmacy would be able to provide me a refill, I gave them a call. They took down my info — and the Rx number from the chain pharmacy — and said they’d get back to me with an answer.
5 or 10 minutes later, not only did they say it was possible… it was done! If I had been around the corner, I could have walked in and picked it up. I didn’t even have to provide my insurance information — they looked it up from the chain store. But when they called back, they offered to deliver it for me — for free!
Now I’ll admit that transferring prescriptions might be common — even in refill situations. But to just take down my details and Rx number and call back to say its ready 5 – 10 minutes later is something I’ve never seen before. Moreover, the fact they delivered the script to my door 30 minutes after that was amazing and very much appreciated.
I can’t say I’ve had a better experience at any pharmacy.
