Need prescriptions delivered, sorted by dose or explained by a pharmacist who takes the time? A neighborhood pharmacy on Broadway does all three.

Margolis Pharmacy, at 447 Broadway, describes itself as a "locally owned community pharmacy" on its Good Neighbor Pharmacy page. The Better Business Bureau lists the business as established in Massachusetts in 1992.

More than prescriptions

Filling prescriptions is only part of the job. The Good Neighbor page says Margolis offers home delivery and compliance packaging, which sorts medications into doses so patients know what to take and when. It also makes compounded medications, carries medical equipment and is wheelchair accessible.

Its own pharmacy page lists more help, including:

Medication reviews with a pharmacist

A program to line up refills so they come due together

Copay assistance programs

Vaccines

Information on disposing of old medications

The pharmacy says it accepts most major insurance plans.

What customers say

Reviewers on Google describe a friendly, professional and bilingual staff. One says the pharmacists take time to explain medications and answer questions.

Another wrote that the pharmacy packages medicine so the family knows when to give it, delivers, and keeps in touch with the doctor about changes. A third found a nebulizer machine at Margolis after other stores didn't carry one.
