Quick Med Pharmacy is a welcoming place. Kiran, the very likable owner, loves to talk to customers and explain their meds to them. He has some young people working there who also enjoy their clients.
Quick Med is in Asbury Park on Main Street at the corner with Fifth Avenue. You can turn the corner onto Fifth and park.
Going to a drug store isn’t necessarily a happy event, but it actually is so at Quick Med.
Aside from our desire to see him do well, there is his fascinating offer: He says that his prices are lower than any pharmacy around including all the big players among which are Wegmans, Walmart, Rite-Aid and CVS.
Kiran points out that Medicare recipients often wind up in the “donut hole” and then they pay full price. He promises to do better. You can call him or visit him to discuss his pricing for your meds.
People often bemoan the loss of beloved old-fashioned shops which are driven out of business by big box stores; here is one opportunity to return to a more nostalgic era and save money besides.
Quick Med Pharmacy is at 1221 Main St. In A. Park. They offer free delivery. 732 897 1500 (phone). You can call to compare prices. Fax is 732 897 1515.

They are a UPS access point drop off and pick-up.
Kiran also offers other services such as fax, copy, scan, and print, and most importantly, a big smile.
Editor’s note: Blogfinger has never accepted paid advertising and certainly no quid pro quo’s either. If we cover a business such as Kiran’s, we do it because the story is compelling to us.
