Testimonials

"UCP is on the very top of the list of the compounding pharmacies in the USA. The pharmacy is making history under the direction of Joe and John Grasela. Their persistent dedication to organizing key hormone therapy seminars in the USA with the experts in the field has helped hundreds, and possibly thousands of physicians, to make the final step and work with hormone therapies, helping thousands and thousands of patients. This dedication to excellence is also reflected in the high quality of their products and the exceptional friendliness of their service."

If there is any issue no matter how minor, they are ready to listen to the customer and make adjustments. Their attitude is great and they are wonderful people. Of course that mind-set starts at the top with John and Joe Grasela and filters down to all who work there. Thank you UCP!"

"It is with pleasure I voice my opinion about University Compounding Pharmacy. As a physician, I have had the opportunity to deal with a number of compounding pharmacies. Over time, it has been apparent to me that University Compounding Pharmacy is a cut above many others. Not only can you rely on the quality of their product and their relentless pursuit to improve customer service, but they are leaders in the field of hormone treatment. I appreciate their active role in training thousands of physicians in the nuances of hormone management. I thank them for their outstanding contributions to health care."

"I have used the services of University Compounding Pharmacy for several years for all my compounding needs. Not only is the staff outstanding and caring for all my patients needs and phone calls, but the owners facilitate my exact personal preferences in hormones and other compounded medications. Their web based prescription ordering software saves my office time, and eliminates the possiblity for mistakes. After trying several pharmacies, I have found University to be the best compounding pharmacy in the country. My patients love it."

Marc Darrow, MD, JD


Since registering on the website ucprx.info I have found it to be immensely useful and very powerful. The ability to easily prescribe my patient's BHRT Rx while still in the exam room over the internet and not have to call or fax makes it convenient and prevents the loss of the Rx before calling or faxing. Refills are even easier. I have not physically written a Rx for BHRT since registering with UCP.

William Work, MD, Fresno, CA


"University Compounding Pharmacy has helped hundreds of my patients achieve dramatic differences in their health and quality of life.

"University Compounding Pharmacy is a world-class, cutting-edge provider of high-quality products and information for both my patients and for me. They are an invaluable resource for my Integrative Medicine practice."

Daniel J. Bressler, MD, FACP


"University Compounding Pharmacy provides a wonderful service to my patients. Their customer care is excellent and the pharmacists are very knowledgeable about their compounds. Being able to tailor my patient’s treatments to their individual needs is what personalized medicine is about. Their pain compounds have helped many of my patients eliminate the need for oral pain medicines. I highly recommend UCP for all your compounding needs."

Bronner Handwerger, ND, San Diego, www.docbron.com


"The physician line for directly contacting their pharmacists is great. It always answers within 2-3 rings (during business hours) and you reach a live pharmacist’s voice—no voicemail—no voice mail algorithms that waste my time—no technician who has to then find the pharmacist. And their pharmacists are always helpful and friendly. UCP’s conferences are excellent. And no one paid me to say all this."

Harvey S. Bartnof, MD, Founder and Medical Director, California Longevity&Vitality Medical Institute, www.LongevityMD.net


"I have been working with UCP for 5 years. I am impressed with their products, service, and their dedication to education. I highly recommend them for all of this and more."

"As an anti-aging physician I rely very heavily on the support and expertise of UCP. They are above board, consistent, reliable, and professional. A phenomenal resource."

Judith Rubin, MD, Encinitas, CA


"I have used University Compounding Pharmacy for almost 3 years and have referred hundreds of patients for compounded hormone preparations and other compounded medications. Their professionalism and customer service are outstanding. The topical hormone preparations are of the highest quality and consistency. I have tried other compounding pharmacies in my local area and have not had the consistent results I see with the medications from UCP. The effectiveness of the compounded preparations ultimately depend on who is preparing them, and the pharmacists at UCP are excellent. My patients are extremely happy with prompt service from UCP, and their on-line provider prescription system has improved my productivity greatly and has made my work a lot easier."

Jeffrey Dunham, MD, Palm Springs, CA www.biofitmedical.com


"I have been working with the University Compounding Pharmacy for about a decade, and have received nothing but professional service for me and my patients. The educational conferences I attend are also never disappointing, and I enjoy the flexibility I have prescribing so many different medication dosages and combinations, tailored for my patient's needs. I also am thankful for having such a competent group of compounding pharmacists in my area that I may rely upon, and use an excellent resource."

Angelica Zaid, MD, Encinitas, CA


"University Compounding Pharmacy has dedicated themselves to serving physicians and patients alike. Patients will benefit from their well educated staff, high qulaity products, and commitment to service. Physicians come to know UCP as a state of the art facility with a commitment to education and cutting edge science. I am happy to recommend UCP as a top compounding pharmacy."

Linda Olafson, MD, FAAFP Past President San Diego Academy of Family Physicians


"As an anti-aging physician I have been working with University Compounding Pharmacy for the last 10 years. They produce high quality compounded pharmaceuticals, have very professional customer service, and my patients and my local office staff find them very easy to work with. The pharmacists are always available to answer questions. The addition of the Internet access has further enhanced their status in our eyes. I recommend University Compounding Pharmacy highly to any patient or practitioner who wishes to work with a state-of-the-art pharmacy that still keeps itself grounded in taking care of each patinet as if they are special."

Stephen A. Center, MD, San Diego, CA


"The Anti-Aging conference at LA Live was incredible. The organization to pull this off was fantastic manly thanks to University Compounding Pharmacy. I learned a lot. It was a great course."

Anju Mathur, MD


"The recent May LA BHRT workshop exceeded my expectations, although knowing that UCP was organizing the event. I expected the proceedings would be of the highest quality. Dr Rothenberg encapsulated well the basic stratagems and also brought us beyond current, as well as fielding the plethora of questions with his usual panache. Dr Gordon's Traumatic Brain Injury was eye-opening and his Growth Hormone protocol was well-elucidated. I look forward to future educational events hosted by UCP."

Jay E. Mattingly, MD


"I attended the BHRT Seminar in May 2010 in LA. I was very impressed with University Compounding Pharmacy. UCP offered important information and answers to questions I had. Since the seminar, I have begun using UCP for several of my prescriptions. I have been happy with their customer service."
