When I moved here in 2015, I used the pharmacy at Stater Brothers because it was convenient.

When Stater Brothers closed the pharmacy, I switched to Rite Aid on Washington, across from Stater Brothers. It, too, was convenient. I was easily able to get there by golf cart, crossing Washington at the light at the entrance to the Stater Brothers parking lot.

When Rite Aid closed, they sold their client base to Walgreens in the Stater brothers shopping center. I was blown away by how terrible a pharmacy could be. They never answered the phone in a timely manner. When I showed up in person, the lines were quite long. It was so frustrating that I wanted to find another pharmacy to use.

I found it, and I want to give them the props they deserve. Cornerstone Pharmacy is across Washington from Stater Brothers also. It is to the left once you enter the parking lot across Washington, next to Chipotles.

I’m very happy with them. They have several people working at the times I have gone there to pick up my prescriptions. They answer the phone quickly. They are Uber friendly and knowledgeable. They are family owned and it’s noticeable how different they are from corporate pharmacies. They also deliver.

I have been using them for well over a year, maybe even two.

The store itself is rather small, with most of it dedicated to the pharmacy. They do have a small selection of items for sale, like pill boxes and walking aids and so on. But I don’t go to the pharmacy to shop for things, and what Cornerstone does is high quality service.
