Upchurch Drugs & Gift Shoppe

I have been using Upchurch's for years now and have never been disappointed! The service is beyond exceptional. It has the feeling of an small town mom & pop place. I love that there is only two pharmacists, so they know my family & our health needs. Highly recommend the pharmacy and the gift shop.

I'm fairly new to Durham so I had no idea there was an independent pharmacy here. They are so much better than the big boxes and these guys have an AMAZING gift shop as well! I'm very happy with this rare gem.

Wonderful, pharmacist-owned drug store that take a personal interest in maintaining your business and satisfaction. They work very hard to assure you're pleased with their services.

The front end of the store has many little humorous "gift" style items as well as various clothing and household decor items.

There is also an optical shop in the front of the store. It's a great store and very friendly staff! Would never want to go to another drug store!

This place is AMAZING!I went in to look for an item that they had sold out of..but the proprietor ..yes she's an Upchurch..took my request and even followed up with more information. How remarkable is THAT!! If you're looking for the very best glasses frames available in this area...look no further!!! The staff is very happy to help you find anything you need..billy shepherd

I can't recommend the Upchurch optical department enough. They do excellent work for a reasonable price and with a quick turn around. The people who work there are also friendly and courteous. Need frames or lenses changed out? Look no further than Upchurch Optical in Durham.

The best most family friendly pharmacy I’ve been to. As a kid we had a hometown pharmacy and this place is like that. Above and beyond every time!!!

I have been an Upchurch Pharmacy customer for many, many years. They are fantastic, kind, compassionate people. I can't imagine going anywhere else. In fact, I was pressured rather strongly by an insurance company to drop Upchurch and sign on to their mail order system. Nope, wouldn't do it. It's kind of like Cheers - everybody knows your name!

Been coming here for 25 years and this family-owned business continues to provide excellent pharmacy service (despite many many changes in the pharmaceutical world ' out there')/ With the advent of their charming gift shop, it's a delight to visit even without a script in hand. Love the people. Love the store.

This pharmacy is great (a thousand times better than Walgreens). They actually answer the phone and they fill prescriptions quickly. The staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

I have dealt with Upchurch Drugs for 19 years and never experienced anything other than total professionalism in every respect. In addition to the two pharmacists, their support staff is extremely competent and cordial. Do not hesitate to make Upchurch your go-to drug store.

Only pharmacy that you can call and get a real person the first ring. Pharmacist was extremely helpful and even pointed me in the right direction when he didn’t have something in stock. Won’t ever go back to a chain pharmacy again. Thank you, Upchurch!

I’ve been here multiple times and I’ve always had a fantastic experience. They’ve done minor fixes on my glasses multiple times free of charge, and their frame selection is well curated.

Durhams hidden gem. When you walk in you automatically feel like you walked into a friendly Mom and Pops type old fashion place. You wont be dissapointed. I recomend this place to everyone.

Everyone is subject to error; for UPC. it is RARE . Their drug knowledge is only exceeded by their
treatment of this stranger as extended family (when he really needed it).
My family had a glass/gift/antique retail business along w/ numerous professional services (until our neighbors
burned it all down & we went from well-to-do to welfare in a week. Quickly, my parents winged their way
to where fire is unknown & I came to help my surrogate daughter (who saw me more there than here). I have been
medically challenged, emotionally fragile, & lonely since my arrival.
UPC, each & every one have provided 'family' I no longer have. I had heard of Southern Hospitality, but expected it to be "service with a smile--perhaps from the teeth out". Gratefully, sincerely, and heart-felt I have found the most genteel, genuine cross-culture I have known across 4 continents, 9 countries, numerous governments and several adopted families in my 3 score 10 life experience.
. I wish I could be more than a unwealthy customer. I take spiritual comfort that we are IHS, OB

This place is a wonderful pharmacy and gift shop. I heard the pharmacy is closing. Can anyone confirm that?

Knowledgable and friendly staff as well as wonderful gift shop make it a great place to shop!

Upchurch is the kind of professional pharmacy that chains cannot duplicate. Very helpful staff.

Cool stuff for sale. My family really likes the optical center.

Just called with a question about a prescription and got an immediate, very friendly and informative answer from the pharmacist.

They have what I need and they deliver also.
Sadly they are now closed and out of business.
