You have gained innumerable friends and customers here in Woodstock... thanks again for all you are doing for the community.

Thank you SO much for getting my parents vaccinated. My mom has serious health problems, and being able to receive her vaccine so easily and so close to home means so much to us all.

Thank you for keeping me informed... The big Pharmacies, the State & the County are terribly impersonal.

He’s doing a lot of good. He’s a good man, a very good man, and we appreciate him very much.

Big plans and governments are helpful, but the people who will save us are people like you. Thanks for being there for us. It matters more than you can imagine.

Appreciate you communicating about not expecting a vaccine this week. It’s better we know this now than to be left hanging. Transparency mirrors honesty and integrity.

Is this what tears of joy are? You said keep the faith, I did, and here I am eternally grateful to you & your ability to make IT happen.

It was a really well run experience, staffed by really nice people. We had spent many hours online at state and local sites and we able to obtain nothing but frustration.

11,253 people fully immunized

General Information

We are now receiving freakin’ truckloads of vaccine from NYS and the federal government.

When we receive them, we will be hosting one-day clinics to get rid of the doses in an efficient manner and away from the pharmacy itself, to prevent the dramatic impact this could make on our daily operations.

The Village Apothecary staff are intentionally kept out of the loop. They have work to do; we have created a separate COVID Vaccine Team to manage all vaccine activities.

Doses will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. That means that my customers may get doses AFTER people I don’t regularly care for. It’s not me.

Clinics will be held at locations in Saugerties, Woodstock, or Kingston, with our clinics most commonly happening at the Woodstock Community Center at 56 Rock City Road, Woodstock, NY 12498. Get directions

NY is now at open eligibility.

If you have any questions about logistics, we are accepting them via email only. Please DO NOT call the store.

FAQ

Can I get my immunization from you?

Yep. Please do. We have lots!

If I'm not eligible, should I be on your waitlist?

Sure! We’re compiling a big list, and we will notify all who are eligible when we have doses. If you add your name to the list now and the rules change where we CAN immunize your priority group!

When will you let us know you have FIRST doses?

We will be communicating to our waitlist every single Monday by 2pm to let people know if we have First Doses or not.

Where can I get more answers to Frequently Asked Questions?

All of our COVID Vaccine FAQs are located here: https://drnealsmoller.com/vax/faq/

Why can't the Village Apothecary staff answer my question?

We have been overwhelmed with requests and they have lots of work to do with their normal responsibilities.

We’ve created a separate COVID Vaccine Team to manage all requests.

All information that goes with any questions you could ask are answered on these COVID vaccine pages.
