Hodgson's Pharmacy

Hodgson's Pharmacy is a local pharmacy at 1260 South Milledge Avenue, Suite F 1, in Athens, GA that has gladly served the area since 1956. That makes it one of the oldest continuously operating pharmacies in the Athens market. The pharmacy fills prescriptions, administers daily immunizations including flu, pneumococcal, and shingles vaccines, offers free home delivery, handles special over the counter ordering, and provides online and app based prescription refills. What truly sets Hodgson's apart from chain pharmacies is the experience beyond the prescription counter. The shop stocks gift items, children's toys, and personal care products, creating a browsing experience that feels more like a community store than a clinical dispensary. Perhaps most delightfully, Hodgson's serves ice cream from 1 to 5 p.m. on weekdays. Yes, you read that correctly. You can fill your prescription and enjoy a scoop while you wait. This combination of good old fashioned personal service and eclectic inventory has kept generations of Athens families loyal. With 25 reviews at 4.4 stars, customers praise the friendly staff and the unique shopping experience. For Athens, GA residents who remember when pharmacies were neighborhood gathering spots and not just fluorescent lit aisles of cough syrup, Hodgson's keeps that tradition alive on South Milledge.
