Nekos-Dedrick's Pharmacy: A Kingston Institution for Generations |
Kingston's oldest independent pharmacy continues to deliver personalized care with a smile |
Some businesses become so woven into the fabric of a community that they feel like family members. Nekos-Dedrick's Pharmacy, located at 86 N Front St in Kingston, is exactly that kind of place. This independent, family-owned compounding pharmacy has been serving the Kingston community for generations, offering personalized pharmaceutical care in a welcoming setting.
A Legacy of Care
Nekos-Dedrick's Pharmacy has served Kingston residents for decades, building relationships that span generations. It's not uncommon for third-generation families to fill their prescriptions here — grandparents, parents, and children all trusting the same pharmacy with their health needs.
The pharmacy combines old-school service with modern pharmaceutical practices. While the personal touch remains, so does a commitment to staying current with the latest medications, therapies, and healthcare technologies.
Personalized Service at Every Visit
Walk into Nekos-Dedrick's and you'll notice something rare in today's healthcare landscape: time. The pharmacists take time to explain medications, discuss potential side effects, and answer questions without the pressure of a corporate queue. They know their regulars by name and are familiar with their medication histories.
Customers appreciate the one-on-one attention. "They actually listen to you here," one reviewer noted. "You're not just a number — they care about getting you the right medication and making sure you understand it."

Why It Matters
Independent pharmacies like Nekos-Dedrick's are increasingly rare, and their loss is felt deeply in the communities they serve.

For Kingston residents who value personalized healthcare and community connection, Nekos-Dedrick's Pharmacy remains a trusted choice on North Front Street.

I appreciate the local angle but I wish the compounding services got a little more explanation. That's actually a pretty specialized thing and a lot of people don't know what it means or when they'd need it. Could be the most important thing they offer for certain patients.
Greg T.You make a good point. Compounding is basically when they make a custom version of a medication, like if you need a different dose than what's commercially available, or if you need it in a form you can actually take, like a liquid instead of a pill. My son has sensory issues and can't swallow tablets so compounding has been a lifesaver for us. More people should know that option exists.
My mother has been going to Nekos-Dedrick's since before I was born and now I take my own kids there. The pharmacists actually remembered my son's allergy without me even bringing it up. You just don't get that at a chain. Hope they stick around for another few decades.
