Professional Village Compounding Pharmacy

Wow! Excellent service and in the case of this particular medication, the process was surprisingly quick. It’s my first experience with a compounding pharmacy but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Interacted with three individuals all were customer oriented, helpful and took the time to answer my questions. I wholeheartedly recommend this business.

The level of care Professional Village showed me — even before I became a client — is truly first-​rate; and their prices are also better than any other pharmacy I contacted. Additionally, the owner, John, is a wealth of information, and he was truly generous with his time, helping me understand how compounding works. I can’t say enough good things about Professional Village! They are now my go-​to pharmacy.

Wow! What a fantastic experience I would of never expected from a pharmacy. I was truly amazed that a place like this still exists in our fast pace society. I phoned first and was taken aback I didn’t have to listen to a voice recording telling me to press 9 buttons to get a real person. The pharmacy tech answered the phone right away and was very helpful and friendly. I wish I had gotten her name and she greeted me at the counter when I arrived and took care of my out of state prescription right away.
I barely had to wait very long and admired how the staff took their time to help the elderly customers. A small town pharmacy in the middle of a busy part of town was such a relaxing relief. Then to find out that they had an extremely fair and lowest price around. I was so relieved and was able to get a prescription that I couldn’t of afforded at the 6 other pharmacies I tried. These wonderful people deserve acknowledgement for their magnificent services. Much gratitude, stay how you are, and Thank you.

Insurance would not cover one of my friend’s medications. We called several pharmacies in the Arden-​Arcade area looking for the lowest cash price for the prescription. We expected this small, independent pharmacy to be the most expensive and called them last. We were stunned to find that they were the least expensive by far (¼ the price at WalMart) and less than half the price of the next least expensive quote. They were 10 times less expensive than the highest quote.
We were also pleasantly shocked by the small town service (think Mayberry). The pharmacist on duty had a PhD but came out from behind the counter to help an elderly woman shop. Another employee sat with an elderly man and patiently helped him with his prescription and insurance issues. Complications with our own order were handled quickly and effectively.
All my prescriptions are being transferred here.

This is going to sound weird but I love this place. It has charm and it’s remain unchanged despite the times. This pharmacy does what it does best and to hell with modern society.
I’ve had to come here numerous times for my son’s medications. They are the only ones nearby (or the only ones my son’s doctor trusts but we won’t tell anyone) that compounds medication. My son’s medication was for his heart surgery and he was only 3 months at the time. I’ve been back numerous times after that time. This pharmacy was the only pharmacy to have the special diaper rash cream my son’s doctor recommended. Normal commercial pharmacies don’t carry it. This pharmacy had 3 on hand. Guess what? I bought all three. They were able to quickly restock after a couple of days.
They were able to save me when my son’s supplies for his colostomy didn’t get delivered after numerous attempts on my end and my son’s doctor’s end to get the supplies. They had the supplies on hand and I was able to buy some just to hold us off until the shipment arrived.
They’ve saved my behind so many times and I’m appreciative. Some of the workers are a little dry and may seem unfriendly but they are good at what they do. I’d rather have that than anything else. Of course that’s just my opinion because it doesn’t hurt to smile and look a little friendly, right.

Thanks to the efforts of Tish, I was able to get the medications I needed to go through with surgery. Nowhere else was able to help me, but she sat down and got everything sorted out. It was great knowing that I was going to have everything I needed.

Wow! Debbie was so sweet and helpful! Two weeks into a six week order to use crutches my sides were raw. Debbie not only found the padded covers that cushion and protect against chafing, she put them on for me too! Great customer service!

Staff is very helpful and courteous. I like this pharmacy because it specializes in compounding and they take the time to work with you and because I like to support local businesses that are independently owned. I recommend them highly.

I’ve been to Professional Village Pharmacy several times, wanting that «Old Time Personal Experience» and the staff have never let me down.
Down side? Due to a recent ‘break in’, they no longer keep narcotics in house.
If you are looking to get out of the Chain Store Pharmacy Rat Race, and actually speak to folks that care, then this is your place!

Years ago I came to Professional Village to have a prescription for my pooch compounded. I use them now for myself and my families prescription needs. Their service and attention to individual client needs is unmatched by the large chain pharmacies. I can’t recommend Professional Village highly enough.

This is a special place.
Okay, I know, I’m prejudiced. I’ve worked here since 1985. But it’s easy for a pharmacist to get a better-​paying job elsewhere, and there are special reasons why I stay…
First of all, this is an independent community pharmacy, a somewhat endangered species, in this location, largely unchanged, since 1959. But we’re also the largest, most experienced compounding pharmacy in Sacramento: not only can we fill the typical prescriptions, but we also make custom medicines from scratch. Like customized hormone combinations, or heavy-​duty topical pain gels, anti-​nausea gels for hospices patients, and anti-​thyroid gels that can be rubbed into a cat’s ear. I’m solving different problems every day – problems that might leave a regular pharmacist stumped. I never get bored. And at what other pharmacy could I work, and have patients tell me regularly, «You’ve changed my life» and «I can’t believe how much better this works» and the one from last week, a doctor’s wife: «I feel better than I can remember feeling in years»? It’s a nice boost to the ol’ self esteem, let me tell you. ;-)
We’re not perfect, mind you. The custom meds take time, sometimes longer than we’d like (we ask for a week; average is 2 – 3 days). We take most, but not all, insurance. And, very occasionally, we have to turn a prescription away due to sheer economics: if the medicine costs $ 400 a bottle, we never use it, you need $ 30 worth for just one time, and the rest will expire on our shelf… well, maybe a corporation can afford to do that; we can’t. But we’ll do everything possible to make sure you get what you need, one way or another.
We accept most insurance, and have shipping options available. We also have a medical and ostomy supply division. Come by and check us out!
