I've always been neutral about pharmacy experiences ... I figured they were all the same, large or small, until I made an active decision to switch away from national chain to an independent provider specifically with a view to supporting local. WOW! Everyone I've encountered at Exchange District Pharmacy is so friendly, knowledgeable, and proactively conscientious. Example: I use a generic version of a drug produced by a number of different manufacturers. The version I'd been using recently was out of stock, and the pharmacist on duty that day went out of their way to ensure the replacement contained no non-medicinal compounding ingredients that would cause me digestive upset. No one has ever done that before without me asking. Little things like this go a long way to making me feel safe. And, now that I'm self-isolating during COVID-19, I appreciate their delivery option, too! I highly, highly recommend this pharmacy =-)

An experience like no other pharmacy. The team lead by Pharmacist Ryan is nothing less than outstanding. They go out of their way to ensure your health is top notch. They most importantly listen and equally important educate. You leave feeing confident that you understand your prescription or treatment plan. They special order for you and deliver on top of it all. They are friendly, and energetic. They are neighborly-they often have events to help others or to get to meet people walking through the neighbourhood. Above and beyond. I never hesitate to go ask questions and I am quick to refer here without hesitation.

I've been going here a few years and have always had a great experience. The staff are friendly, fast, and helpful. I work nearby so it's a convenient location. Apparently they have a free delivery service too, though I haven't needed to use it. I often call them to fax my doctor for more refills and they are able to do this fairly quickly, it works well. I've had flu shots here in the past too. The store part is small but has the essentials and some fun/useful little things (pamphlets on the Exchange, downtown Wpg art coasters...). Highly recommend going here since the service is exceptional!

  • Rob Ryder

Ryan Chan came down to our office, as part of a Flu Clinic campaign that Exchange District Pharmacy was offering. We had a number of employees take part, and the feedback about Ryan and the experience overall was exceptional. From the comfort of our office, we were able to get flu shots quickly, safely and Ryan took the time to answer questions, and calm our employees nerves. We will definitely be using Exchange District Pharmacy for their Flu Clinic next year. If you have the chance, call them today! You will not be disappointed.

  • Bethanie MacLeod

I work nearby this pharmacy, so the location is super convenient for me. Staff is extremely helpful, everyone there knows their stuff, I have never once left with any unanswered questions. They will go above and beyond for their customers, even personally delivering a prescription to me on their way home just so that I could get my prescription the same day. Best pharmacy ever!! They make everything so easy. Thank you guys for everything that you do!!

  • Larissa Dueck

Another great experience at Exchange District Pharmacy! I stopped in to pick up a necessary item (not prescription) because it was the closest to work. The till was not cooperating for the staff member and he couldn't reach the manager on the phone. So, I was given the item free of charge as an apology for the inconvenience! I've never experienced that kind of customer service in my life! I will be a loyal customer from now on, to be sure!

  • Botanical PaperWorks

The flu shot clinic was such a great experience from start to finish! We contacted Ryan, the Pharmacy Director through email to get more information about it and he was quick to respond and quick to fit our company in to his schedule. He arrived early, was fully prepared and did an amazing job explaining the process to each person and getting through all of us efficiently. We'll definitely be contacting him again next year!

  • Raven Bennett

I switched to this pharmacy after experiencing numerous prescription errors with my previous one. The difference is night and day - I’ve been called before holidays to ensure my prescription is taken care of, and have been pleasantly surprised by refills in advance of my last pill. Staffed by a lovely group of humans who care a lot about what they do. I see you and appreciate you :)

  • kim toews

The pharmacy provided our Kiwanis senior citizen facility with flu shots again this year and the staff was very professional and courteous. We are extremely please with them and will continue to use their services. 80 flu shots were provided in under 6 hours and we have not received a single complaint. They were actually running 30 minutes ahead of schedule. THANK YOU SO MUCH

  • joshua giffin

Disappointed in this place. Went for a Pneumo vaccine last year. He went too fast. But, worse of all, he never took out and filled the immunization form that goes to MB health. This is very important. Why you cant find my name, is because you never took my name. Well, myself, and a person I know need vaccines, so next time please go slow and take our immune records, thanks.

  • Jaspreet Kaur

I work nearby so the convenience of having this Pharmacy in the neighborhood is so awesome. Co-worker was feeling unwell so we asked if one of the staff could check her BP and they did. The Pharmacy itself is beautiful, colorful and bright. Very clean and inviting. Next time I feel unwell or have a prescription; I will for sure keep this Pharmacy in mind. Thanks!

  • Sharon Muldrew

The pharmacist who gave me my third booster (Jenna?? Sorry, I can't remember her name) was WONDERFUL.... professional, light-hearted, and charming. Under tremendous stress, the pharmacists at Exchange District Pharmacy are doing their best to wage the war against Covid. Bravo to the pharmacists out there jabbing us all! Get your booster, folks!

  • Steve Renton

I have been dealing with Ryan and the staff at Exchange District Pharmacy for a few years. The staff are great; service is friendly, professional, and provided by people who genuinely care about your well being. I moved away from downtown, but have stayed with this pharmacy because of the excellent service they provide. Highly recommended!

  • Karina Lebedeva

I had nothing but good experiences with this friendly neighbourhood pharmacy. They are extremely helpful, friendly and efficient. Getting refills through them is a breeze as they handle faxing your physician. They also offer delivery which is amazing! This is a completely different pharmacy experience from any other place I've been to

  • Robyn Normandale

Ryan and the Exchange District Pharmacy team has conducted a Flu Clinic at our workplace for the past 2 years. Each time, we've exceptionally happy; the supportive materials to promote our clinic, the personable service and the little details (like swag for participants!) set the Exchange District Pharmacy apart. Highly recommended!

  • Adam N. Nepon

THE best customer service I've experienced hands down. With two young children, when you need medicine you need it now. Extraordinarily knowledgeable staff that truly take the time to inquire, explain, and ensure your needs are met. City wide delivery - I'm all the way in charleswood and have never had an issue with timely delivery

  • Bryna Lutz

Amazing service, the staff and the owner go above and beyond to insure you have all the information needed. Extremely helpful and beyond convenient with free delivery. I will never go anywhere else. I encourage anyone thinking about switching to this pharmacy to do so, you won’t get better advice and more knowlage anywhere else!

  • Zev Rumstein

I had a great experience with Exchange District Pharmacy. I was running out of my prescription and the day I picked up my prescription in the late afternoon, I sent a request for the prescription. That evening, three hours later, Ryan came to the door delivering the prescription. Wow! Thanks Exchange District Pharmacy!

  • Ken Rooney

Second year in a row having Exchange District Pharmacy do a flu shot clinic at my office. Ryan and Sarah were very friendly and efficient. It’s a service everyone really appreciates and they make it very easy for us. I highly recommend using their service to help keep your employees safe and healthy.

  • Mara Koven

Ryan Chan on behalf of Exchange District Pharmacy has come to our office for the last two years to administer our flu shot clinic. He has been professional, responsive and easy to deal with. He has provided our office with a very valuable service and we would highly recommend him.

  • Jeannine DesRoches

Amazingly, even when they are closed, they are open, because they have a beeper service, so by dialling their main number you can leave a message in case of an emergency. Delivery is seamless and the pharmacist has spent a lot of time talking to me about my prescription.

  • Brent Biglow

We switched to EDP a couple years ago from a big box, and it's like night and day. Free delivery, knowledgeable staff that we've gotten to know by name, and a boost to our local economy. Makes no sense not to shop local for prescriptions, and EDP is an awesome choice.

  • Derrick Pawluk
