Slater Drugs Has Provided Service Since 1965

Illness never takes a holiday and neither do the professionals at Slater Pharmacy.  They are there to serve your medical needs 365 days a year and have been doing so for the last 45 years. 

Harold Robinson began this thriving business in 1965, when the drug store was located in Center Moriches. His son Martin and his wife Lorraine now operate it on Hawkins Road, just south of Portion Road in Lake Ronkonkoma. 

It is the trust their clientele have in them that keep bringing them back to Slater Drugs.  Some families have been coming in for four generations.  Though surrounded by many chain drug stores, it is the service and customized care that make Slater special. 

Martin knows most of his customers and Spiro Monias is not only a second licensed pharmacist but also a nutritionist, specializing in vitamins and supplements.  For those needing advice on diabetes, Slater Drugs can assist you in planning meals, supplying your medical needs and also keeping you up-to-date on the latest developments in diabetic care.  When you visit, be sure to ask for the booklet from Lily, detailing how some fast foods can allow you to “cheat smartly.”

Customized care is what Slater has been delivering to the Sachem community for decades.  Their line of surgical and homecare items are unique, not carried in the chain stores.  If they do not have what you need in stock, a phone call will have it in your hands by the end of the day or the next morning.  Wheelchair and walker rentals will have you rolling and on your feet in no time. 

Slater Drugs offers the traditional services local pharmacies have been known for; fair market prices, free blood pressure monitoring and even prescription compounding.  This is customized medications created by our pharmacists under the direction of your own physician.  General Manager Glenn Kaspar keeps the huge store well stocked to suit the needs of their local customers.  Besides medical supplies and equipment, they have a line of discounted greeting cards, gift wrap, and many aisles of toys, summer goods and unique collectibles. 

Al Greco operates the Lake Foto Digital Imaging Center from the front of Slaters Drugs.  His expertise is in everything photographic, with the latest technology needed to restore old photos, process film in his 1 hour developing service and even transfer video into digital files and DVDs.  Greco can even help out with your legal issues for he offers his notary services.

Slater is always open and always ready to help you whether it is to make that extra call to your physician for consultations or to keep their store open and stocked to fill your every need.  Lorraine and Martin Robinson have made it their business to care and serve their customers. 

Slater Pharmacy is a community resource Sachem residents have known about for decades.  A visit to their store will offer something chain drug stores do not carry, personalized service and confidence that their staff of professionals stand ready to supply your every need.
