We came here to get some mozzie repellent while takin the kids fishing close by. It was great. Prices are awesome too!

Always approached with a smile and a helping hand! The staff here a very helpful and great with advice! Not to mention they have a nice range of cosmetics and medicines for such a small chemist! Reasonably priced as well! Fast and professional, and have easy access with a car park and located next to some shops!

One of the mot important shops for some of the islands, even though it is smaller in size compared to pharmacies on the mainland the stock a lot of things that the mainland pharmacies do, Don has always helped me, even tho it can get a bit crowded at times its a good chemist and does well for everyone :)

As the only pharmacy on the Island, it's very important to residents. When we lived on Russell, I was very unwell, and I was taken care of very well by Don. He always took the time to explain new medication to me, and I was always comfortable taking advice from him. If my medication was not available he would order it in for me for collection the following day.

It's a very small shop, but well stocked for it's size.

One thing that all of us need from time to time are the services of a chemist shop. This is even more important when you live on an island and would otherwise need to travel by ferry to the mainland to have a prescription filled. Russell Island Pharmacy is an integral part of our island community and well serves the needs of residents. Although the shop is only very small, and could well do with being at least doubled in size, it manages to provide most of the products you need. If your medication is not generic or unusual it may not be stocked, however the Pharmacist, Don, can order it for the following day. Once you are aware of this, and are able to pre-plan your script requirements, this isn't a problem. Although you often need to wait for your scripts, the staff are always friendly an attentive to your needs. The Pharmacy also acts as a sub-agency for the Bendigo Bank, which is very useful for a community without a bank.

As I take prescribed medications, Don always assists me with any advice/information I need when adding another medication or if I am not sure how to take it etc. His staff have also given me the courtesy and professionalism. A pleasant experience.
