National Pharmacies Aldinga

National pharmacy aldinga has always been very helpful and reasonably priced when using membership card. Even cheaper then chemist warehouse for some things.

I have seen this store go through so many changes over 13 years. Staff are still friendly and helpful. National Pharmacies are a bit pricey though

Customer for 24 years, regular visitor, always very professional and friendly

I went into the pharmacy for some wound management, staff were very friendly gave me some good advice and I left very happy. I've always had great friendly service. Also the product recommended I know keep in my first aid kit.

Very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff with excellent customer service skills. My only gripe is that whenever I've needed to fill a script for basic naproxen which treats my chronic pain, inflammation, and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, they always make me wait a day for them to order some in. Other than that, I am very happy with their service.

Good pharmacy. Did have trouble with chemist once refusing to fill script because she thought dosage was too high. Had to wait till following day when head pharmacist was in who knew I had been on high doses before and cleared the script to be filled
Range of stock a little short.

No complaints here. Friendly staff

Friendly staff but too long to wait for pick ups..

Good pharmacist but expensive

I called here on Tuesday asking for a sick note as I was awaiting the results of a pcr test and couldn’t go to work until I received a negative. The lady on the phone was pleasant enough and said that they couldn’t issue one over the phone but once I had received a negative result I could go in to get one. That’s understandable. So I go in to get the sick note today (Thursday) and was told to go book an appointment at a doctor. They were a bit busy and I understand that they would not be able to write it immediately but I had no issue waiting. If I had been told that it wasn’t possible on Tuesday I would have been able to book an appointment earlier and would not have bothered to go to this store. Either the staff don’t know procedures and make it up as they go along, or they just didn’t want to deal with customers issues. In either case this is a failing for this store.

Nice enough people however being told if I was a member I would pay 1/2 the amount for the same medication was a bit unprofessional. All that tells me is they don't respect the local people enough to give a fair price for everyone, everyday. Why have prices jacked up so you can discount for "members"? Just like all the other reviews I bet there will be no correspondence to resolve.

I cannot put into words how disgusted I am with the ‘Service’ I received tonight from the Indian women who I would assume is the pharmacist on shift tonight 10/8/23

I won’t go into detail as I will be taking this matter further with your complaints department.
However I strongly suggest to anyone that is wanting/needing to have a prescription filled, especially an ‘escript’ to completely avoid N/P-Aldinga!

Worst pharmacy! Stupid wait times and rude staff that make you feel like you’re an inconvenience. Pharmacists always chatting no wonder there’s always a delay in scripts.

I used to go here but the service was non existent so started driving to chemist warehouse at moana . It was a bit inconvenient but worth it for the money I saved. Today I was at aldinga shops and only needed one thing from the pharmacy so went in to national pharmacies. What a joke!! Two staff in the dispensary standing , talking and laughing to each other, two customers sitting down waiting for their scripts and I was told my one item would be 30 minutes!
I worked as a dispensary technician for over 20 years so have a very good understanding of how a pharmacy works!
Lift your game national pharmacies! Your prices are beyond a rip off, your staff are untrained and incompetent and your service is non existent! NEVER AGAIN will I step foot in one of your stores.

Absolutely shocking!!!! General staff doing the pharmacists job filling scripts while the pharmacist is helping on the shop floor!! Ordered regular scripts through med advisor. Came in as it had been 3hrs since ordering them. Got told that they will get to it when they can. Mind you my Husband is in the carpark throwing up waiting for his meds.

Without fail, every single time I’m forced to have to suffer going to this chemist (which is as little as humanly possible but there’s a supply issue atm with my regular medication so I’m forced to have to go here sometimes), but without fail there is always an issue. Either it’s “you’ve come back too soon for it”, or “this script has been faxed to another chemist we’ll have to ring and annoy your doctor to ensure this isn’t forged” (despite there being a bloody barcode on the script!!!). The list goes on and on. They are power tripping, rude people who think their authority is above that of a doctors. Absolutely cannot stand them! They are so rude and have no idea what good customer service is. Go to one of the Terry Whites in Aldinga instead. They are much much nicer! This place SUUUUCKS
