(I started this review as a comment to a previous reviewer and had to repost here due to going over the character limit of 500. Sorry for redundancy.)
What a peculiar review. Why would someone go out of their way to directly praise the supposed merits of corporate chain stores (""...enjoy the websites and automated phone services that the chains offer"") and unfairly characterize the bustle of Suba's atmosphere as ""disorganized""?
In all of the ten years I've been a customer, I've never once been given the wrong medication and the wait time is between 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the traffic. Their records are meticulous and the pharmacists are far more alert, personable, and knowledgeable than any of the chain stores in the neighborhood.
Suba also charges at least 30% less than its competitors and allows its regular customers to carry a balance. This is a wonderful allowance for people like me who don't have health coverage and need to pay out of pocket for expensive drugs. I don't know how many times they've saved me from an asthma attack when I was having a tight month and couldn't cover my Singulair and Advair scripts. How many Duane Reades or Rite Aids would do this? Zero. Why? Because they are run by corporate policies. Suba, on the other hand, is run by a few caring and hardworking people whose values transcend the bottom line.
Pros: sincere, personable, timely, and accurate service
Cons: i wish they were open until later in the evening
