Big up Montu and Grow for going out of their way to constantly shaft patients.

It's actually insane that Botanical are now being blocked out of the medical market because of some fat greedy suits.

@Lank72 @GrownHealth @Muiredach - you chaps will love this.

This is sad mate ,especially the Montu stuff as thats the only way I found value in their stuff and it goes to show Botanical Health Dispensary must be making waves now but it's frustrating to find this out:confused:

I know mate, its genuinely like a kick to the balls. They were changing the game in a major way for us. Instead of the other pharmacies coming to meet them, they're trying to force them out it seems.

The new supplier has a 3-day turnaround time to get things to the pharmacy, I can live with that so I've decided to keep my script with them out of principle, I figure they could use the patient support now more than ever.

Love to hear that! - The more of us stand with them through this, the more chance we have of all costs coming down.

I'll let y'all know how this current order goes for time just so we have a reference on timelines but like you, I shall be going nowhere.

I actually said to @GrownHealth privately a while back that I was worried about this, totally expected other pharmacies to cut them off when they realise they are being undercut for their own products.

They moneymakers band together against a company trying to help patients.

I will try to direct more of my scripts to Botanical in future

It didn't even occur to me that they'd care as long as they were being paid. It's not like many other patients are allowed to user external pharmacies so I assumed it wouldn't make a dent. I wonder if patients have been asking for price matches.

either way, it's infuriating and all its done it strengthened our resolve in Botanical.

I imagine if their patients are asking for scripts sent to Botanical Health Dispensary for their products then I don't think that would go down well😅

I shall certainly be sending any scripts not covered by IPS too Botanical ✊
 
I've just had a delivery from Botanical Health Dispensary and it was perfect from start to finish.

Its the 1st time i have used an external pharmacy & had read how it can sometimes be problematic, but that isn't my experience.

Wednesday 10th I emailed & checked that what I wanted was in stock.
emailed my Clinic CB1 Medical and asked to have my script sent to botanical and paid the £5.60 fee.

Thursday Botanical emailed to say that they have the script and did i still want to go ahead.

Early afternoon Friday i was sent an invoice and paid.

Dispatched Monday 15th.

Delivered today 16th.

at each stage i got a friendly email from the botanical team to let me know the progress, very polite and professional, i will definitely use them again if CB1 don't have the stock.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I just wanted to throw some love back towards Botanical.

Despite the shit storm of a week they had they've still managed to source a new supplier, order in the meds and have them delivered to the pharmacy before midday today.

If anyone was worried about how the supplier issues would effect medication getting out to you, I can confidently say business is as usual and there's no extra delays involved.

Thanks for that as you've illuminated a path that might make it possible and worthwhile my wife plugging on with CB1 as access to BHD is a big plus.
 
I used Botanical Health Dispensary for the first time last week, and I’m happy to say it won’t be my last. Many of the products I’ve previously been prescribed or have sourced through other clinics are available here, often at lower prices, which has made it a very cost-effective option.

Before ordering, I was a little sceptical about the quoted 1–2 working day turnaround, but I was kept updated throughout the process and found the communication reassuring. The only part that caught me off guard was the payment process. My payment request was by bank transfer, and I needed to notify the dispensary once the transfer had been made. It was slightly different from what I was used to, but once I understood the process, everything went smoothly.

I’m still undecided on whether I prefer this payment method over an online payment portal, but the pricing more than makes up for that in my experience.

This is the first time I’ve been with a clinic that has allowed me to choose and use Botanical Health Dispensary. They kindly provided me with their formulary as an Excel spreadsheet, although I found it just as easy to browse products using MedBud Wiki when deciding what to request on my prescription.

Overall, it’s been a great first experience, and I’m looking forward to seeing how the service continues to develop. Is there any other way to access their formulary?
