About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Quick Meds, a regular patient complained loudly one morning: ‘Why do I always get the same pharmacist? She never smiles!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in and overheard the complaint. Smiling broadly, he said, 'Ma’am, she’s not smiling because she’s too busy making sure your medicine is right.' Everyone laughed, and from that day on, whenever someone entered, they’d hear him greeting everyone with, 'Welcome to Quick Meds—where our pharmacist frowns for your health!'

2. At Quick Meds, an elderly gentleman asked curiously one afternoon: ‘Why does my prescription say “Take with milk” when it tastes like burnt plastic?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'That's because it's a placebo, sir—designed to taste awful so you won't accidentally overdose!' The old man nodded wisely, saying, 'Ah, I see! Then I'll just stick to water.' A young delivery driver overheard and muttered under his breath, 'Guess he didn't get the memo that water's bad for you too...'

3. At Quick Meds, a concerned neighbor once asked: ‘Why is that pharmacist always winking at me?’ It turned out he was just testing his eyelids for fatigue—long hours behind the counter can do that to you. The wink became a smile when they realized it, and from then on, whenever anyone entered, our heroic pharmacist would announce with a twinkle in his eye: ‘Welcome to Quick Meds—where your meds are quick, but my winks are free!’

4. At Quick Meds, the night shift delivery driver noticed something peculiar one foggy morning. As he pulled up to the loading dock, he heard a soft humming coming from inside the pharmacy. Curious, he cracked open the door and saw an old man in a white lab coat, gently tapping away on an ancient cash register. ‘Morning,’ said the man without turning around. The driver cleared his throat. ‘Excuse me, sir?’ The man finally looked up with twinkling eyes. ‘Oh, hello there. Just counting our lucky stars that everything’s running smoothly.’ Turning back to his work, he added, “Don’t worry, sonny—this happens every foggy morning.”
