Can not fault this company. Although we had problems with the delivery, the fault was solely with Royal Mail's delivery person, who obviously couldn't be bothered to walk a further 200 yards round the corner to post the package through my door, instead took a photo of a house door at another address as proof of delivery and we had to go back numerous times before some one was in, before i could accept my package.
When I spoke to someone at Dr Fox, they were very helpful and tried to sort it for me, but all Royal Mail told them was, that it had been delivered.

It was all a bit of a farce really.
Items packaged in the cheapest Jiffy Bag...the type you can get from Poundland: 10 for £1.
So while in transit from Scotland offered no protection for the contents, so arrived damaged and crushed.
This was not the fault of Royal Mail.
Reached out and spoke to Customer Services, who were great, yet they were let down by the Dispensary and the Dr.
I was sent 2, yes 2 replacement tablets but on this occasion Royal Mail failed to follow simple instructions.
So I did not have adequate Medication to take the full course and as a result had to seek help while overseas.
I did get a refund but all too little too late.
The Dr I was in communication with at Dr. Fox suggested that I could just call my GP and get a prescription all within a day: Not exactly the reality of the current situation within the NHS....
I would not use this Pharmacy again.

There was nothing wrong with the order, but I needed it urgently and ordered it on a Sunday. I paid for what initially appeared to be next day delivery. I accept that delivery is termed in working days, but I did not receive it until the following Thursday.
Having ordered several prescriptions from different companies in the past, this is the worst delivery service I have received.

Hello, the order number you have quoted was placed on 8th March, dispatched the same day and delivered the next day. Does your review perhaps relate to a different order?

My medication didn't arrive in time so won't be using the service again.
My medication didn't arrive in time so I was shipped another batch because I was taking it on holiday. Unfortunately the original order was delivered the day after I departed for a 3 month holiday in Europe so I had to send the tablets I had received back to Dr Fox so I wasn't charged double. So I departed for holiday with absolutely no medication. Very disappointed.

Sorry about this delivery issue, we were both let down by Royal Mail. It is fine to return the extra parcel when you return from holiday.

Shop around.... Don't be a loyal customer!
When buying private medicines, Dr Fox claim that they are the best value, trust me they are not... I asked for a price match to which they agreed but am I am still waiting for the difference to be refunded....
My advice shop around... loyalty doesn't matter... remember you can be a loyal customer but the loyalty is rarely paid back!

Thank you for your review. I can confirm that the price match was honoured and the price you paid was adjusted to reflect this. Kind regards

I purchased an item and paid via debit card and order confirmed. No mention of age verification at this stage. Only post purchase was I emailed to confirm my identity with passport or driving licence. Neither of which I possess. Fair warning should applied prior to purchase to save the hassle of back and forth messages.

Thank you for your review and very sorry that you were not happy with the service. The patient identity check is mentioned both on the medical questionnaire ("I am over 18 and I agree to identity verification checks") and also the account registration page ("Identity verification: Use correct name and date of birth") prior to ordering. Patient identity can be confirmed with either a photo supplied of an ID document, or using an online 'soft' credit check using registered name, date of birth, and address. Our staff made multiple attempts to help verify your identity but the details requested were not provided, and the order was cancelled and refunded at your request.

Treatment Tablets
I took the weeks course of tablets & they didn’t stop any symptoms & when I retested my results came back positive. Not happy with this plus the tablets are not the same as what the clinic provide. I will be contacting the seller personally for a refund or replacement of tablets.

Thank you for your review and sorry to hear the symptoms have not subsided. Please note a test can give a positive result for many weeks after treatment. Please consult your regular doctor as you may need additional tests and alternative treatment. All our medicine is genuine, UK licensed and approved, batch tested by quality controllers after manufacture, sourced through regulated supply chains, and posted from our registered UK pharmacy. Tablets may look different as made by different manufacturers but they all contain the same active medication. Our doctors have provided advice directly, and remain available to advise if required.

Annoying delivery process.
All deliveries come as “signed for” which means 2 weeks later my item is floating around with Royal Mail as I am always at work when try and deliver. Unfortunately despite being great value can’t recommend Dr Fox because you don’t actually get what you’ve paid for!

Thank you for your review and very sorry you find the delivery process annoying. Signed-for delivery protects children and pets at addresses from potential harm. If you have neither you can request items are sent without requiring a signature. Items can also be posted to work addresses if preferable. Undelivered items are refunded or reposted whichever is preferred.

Probably won’t use again.
Unlike in a previous occasion we used Dr Fox this time we had to produce identity before receiving the Malarone. It seemed an unnecessary part of the order process and was cumbersome delaying the receipt of the medication. Probably won’t be using them again.

Thank you for your review and very sorry for the inconvenience of the identity verification process - it is only required to be completed once. All online pharmacies will have some form of identity check procedure. Best regards

Disappointing delivery times
I was disappointed in the delivery time. I placed the order on a Sunday and received the package on the following Wednesday. There’s other pharma services I’ve used which have had more efficient postage services.

Ordered generic sildenafil 100mg x8. Zero effect anywhere! I suspect these are fake pills, as 50mg generic from my gp works no problem at all. Won’t be using Dr Fox again.

Reasonable Service
Nice website, good price.
Slow delivery even allowing for 1 day extra bank holiday in Scotland where pharmacy is based.
Apart from that a reasonable service.

Thank you for your review and very sorry to hear you are unhappy with the treatment supplied and the service. We advise when making an order that "Generic brands supplied change depending on availability. If you have a manufacturer/brand preference please send a message after ordering." The previous brand supplied had been discontinued. Our customer service staff have offered a refund or exchange for a different generic brand.

Unfortunately we are now unable to provide service to your address as we seem to have multiple issues with deliveries, resulting in significant losses incurred (full refunds are issued every time). We want to ensure we can maintain our usual high standards, including delivery, which appear to have not been upheld for your previous orders. Apologies for this, we would suggest using an alternative online pharmacy supplier, or to contact your usual GP. Our staff are available by phone Mon-Fri 9am-5pm.

Thank you for your review. In this instance you ordered on a Sunday, the item was posted on the Monday, and delivered on the Tuesday. This is the 8th negative review of our service you have posted in the last 2 years, and we are unsure why you continue to make repeated orders? We acknowledge there have been issues in the past with Royal Mail deliveries to your address and we have switched to using a specialist courier for your account (at our expense). Other than suggesting using an alternate online pharmacy service which hopefully you will find less disappointing, there is not much more we can do to meet your needs. Best regards
