The nurse at Dischem Braamfontein is absolutely best, my visit was on the 14/04/2026. The Nurse was kind, caring and helped a lot. Forgot her name though. Thank you Dischem Braam.

I went to Dis-Chem Pharmacies in…Steeldale shopping centre for an implant removal

I went to Dis-Chem Pharmacies in Steeldale Shopping center(Johannesburg) to remove my Implant, I was assisted by Paulina. I am not sure if anyone has ever had to label that experience as "wonderful" But mine was, Im typing this review, 5 hours later , bandage still on and The only pain I experienced was the sting of the injection. I believe the entire procedure took 15 minutes. I have to mention that its only R220. I heard about this service through word of mouth, Im writing this review so you dont.

Incomplete Product Information

A lot of products in sports supplements have incomplete information. This is against consumer protection. Whoever is managing the online trading of Dischem should pull up his socks. USN PRO Recover 1kg

I have had issues applying for the baby programme since the 12-12-25 on the Dischem app which now can only be done on the app of late.

The staff at the Parow branch could not assist me. However I sent an email to customer care and I got help from Tracy Krebs who resolved my issue on the 03-01-26

She was patient and persistent in trying to resolve my issue, consistent in her communication which I very much appreciated. She helped resolve my issue and confirmed the details on my profile have been updated .

Big thank you to you ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Tracy Krebs.

PS. The five stars are for her and not the Dischem Parow Branch.

Waiting times in queues way too long

Please open more tills at Dischem Baywest branch in PE. Last Sunday afternoon around 12.30 there were only 2 tills open and the queue was astronomically long to wait in for over an hour to buy a few items. You are going to lose customers. I for one will never go shop there again any time soon. It's ridiculous. Prices are already so high then still greedy to open a few more tills to cut queue lengths. What a disgrace.

Dischem I will no longer support and neither will my friends and family. I was denied vital medication from a script and was denied due to a technicality. The staff showed portrayed a unconcerned attitude. All scripts will now be taken elsewhere as well as the monthly grocery purchases, and I will continue to give bad reviews and steer potential customers away. Your repeat prescription reminders are a farce.

Don't bother making an appointment

Don't bother making an appointment, the nurse will leave you waiting while she walks around and chats to other staff. When you query the delay you will be told to be patient. Clearly the staff place no value on your time.

DisChem Medical Insurance - bad experience

DisChem Medical Insurance - After many ‘promises’ made I signed up… my wife had a severe accident so I paid close to R20,000 up front… I submitted claims as I was instructed, only to receive a very, very small amount back. I also did not receive any response to the numerous emails and queries. Overall a very bad experience!

APP BUGGY, MEDICAL AID CLAIMS DON'T WORK

I told them that medical aid claims do not work on the app. I work in IT with payment services, and I even troubleshooted the issue with them to make sure that all of my details are correct. They still immediately debit your bank account then get rude when you email them and say it's your fault. They make no effort to fix this problem and don't even get back to me.

Amazing clinic service received from Sister Brenda

I had a consult at Sunninghill Dischem clinic Chilli on top, and was assisted by Sister Brenda. I was especially impressed with the care she took with me and how comfortable she made me feel and her level of professionalism. This kind of service is outstanding! Thank you Brenda!
