The pharmacists and staff are friendly, helpful, extremely knowledgeable and always make time to listen no matter how busy they are. Their prices are excellent and they always give the option of a cheaper brand if there is one available. My vet sent me to Pittwater Pharmacy when my cat needed a specific medication and I was even given a selection of flavours to make the medicine more palatable.
