1. 5/5Absolutely amazing. Highly recommend to everyone I know!!!

   I've seriously never written a review for an app before but I love Nurx!!! I've never had such an easy experience obtaining birth control. Ever. It was so seamless and easy, and the staff communicates with you at every single step. You can literally message with an RN one on one with any questions you have. To get birth control, you just upload your insurance card, and if you don't have insurance like a lot of us don't, you can still get birth control for $15 a month! You can also use savings cards if you have them just like at any physical pharmacy! I'm literally recommending this to everyone I know. All you have to do in terms of medical stuff is just know your blood pressure within the past last six months, which you can get checked for free at places like CVS, or use an at home machine. Also, amazing selection. Nurx has everything, every kind of pill, patch, etc., with all the info you need about the pros and cons of each individual one. I learned so much just browsing through their website and have never felt so educated about all the kinds of birth control, especially all the kinds of pills there are. You can also have a nurse select a pill for you based on your info and prescribe it to you, just like at the physical doctor. My pills shipped in less than a week! If you need birth control in an easy way, I seriously recommend you try it!!

2. 5/5Incredible for migraines!

   I’ve used Nurx for several years - first for birth control and now for migraines - and always had such great experiences with both the providers and the customer service reps. I especially want to mention Karolann, who I spoke to recently on the migraine CS line: she was just so, so kind and patient and helpful. I had a pretty complex issue with fixing an order cancellation for different 4 medications with 2 separate insurance policies and one out of pocket payment method. I had just called to find out if I could salvage the order/reverse the cancellation and she went above and beyond to help me not only fix the errors but to streamline the different insurance coverages and out of pocket payments. She was so kind, professional, empathetic, and personable and made me feel so valued and taken care of by the company. I also owe a huge, HUGE thank you to the prior authorization department for fighting on my behalf with my insurance for nearly 6 months to get approval for a very new and very expensive medication that had been flat out denied several times before. They kept me updated throughout the whole process and never stopped working to help me. My doctor has also been so incredibly patient and responsive has worked so hard to find a treatment regime that works for me. Thank you to everyone there for providing such a wonderful service ❤️

3. 3/5Great but still needs improvements

   This is a great and convenient service but it still needs improvements. They stopped carrying my medication (I only use this certain brand due to bad side effects from other generics, they also didn’t tell me they stopped carrying it, I had to ask when they tried sending a different brand) and now I have to have my medicine sent to the pharmacy for pickup instead of having it shipped which kind of defeats a major part of the service, but I do appreciate that I can speak to any available doctor and get help in 1-3 days (depending on how busy they are) vs. having to wait months to see an in person doctor. But with this, I do get errors in my profile because I’ve been sent the wrong brand more than once and to the wrong pharmacy even though I have told them a new location for me to pick it up from. Because of this, I now remind them of the correct prescription, amount of supply, and pharmacy location with nearly every refill I get so they don’t mess it up. It’s not that much work but very annoying and worrying that I’ll be sent the wrong stuff if I don’t. When they did ship it, more than enough times I’d get some odd shipping errors saying they couldn’t complete my order which was a hassle to deal with and get it corrected. User interface for the app could also use improvements. Overall grateful for the service and the doctors/ nurses are very nice and helpful, but could still use some improvements.

4. 5/5I don’t usually review but

   Okay so I’ve like, never reviewed an app, but this app made my life SO MUCH BETTER. I take BC for extremely painful periods, I take a certain kind (I tried a few different kinds previously), they had my kind, when they run out of stock they send me an appropriate off brand with the same active ingredient so really I’ve yet to notice the difference. I live very rural and it’s a pain to get prescriptions at the pharmacy but with this it comes right to my house and I don’t even have to remember it. The bad reviews seem to be from people who have no idea what they’re doing on the app. And yes, it auto renews (I saw bad reviews about that? For me it’s nice bc I don’t have to think about it anymore). Also, customer service has always answered me in a timely fashion and been super awesome (I saw reviews about that too so thought I’d share my experience). The only time I’ve had issues with this app is when I myself did something wrong (changed cards and forgot to update my billing info; then it took a while to get my new shipment. Which makes sense if you aren’t entitled.) Every month they also send me a card that explains I have a right to speak to a dr about my birth control which I like. I dunno, I just really like the app. 10/10 recommend.

5. 1/5What a Nightmare

   This whole business is a scam. It’s an exhausting and consistently frustrating take on a crucial service. I absolutely love the concept of getting it delivered and being able to do it all online. First month was fine. Every month since they have tried charging my card anywhere from $8-$10 even though under my insurance all forms of birth control pills are free at no cost to me at all. Every time I’ve tried to explain that to the staff at Nurx their only response is to talk to my insurance… even if I’ve already told them that I have. I can explain it to them all day I only get automated responses, never any real help at all. Also the customer service is the worst I’ve seen on any online platform. It takes up to 6 days for someone to get back to you on anything. The earliest for me was 3 days. So you send them a message and by the time they respond you’re so close to running out of pills that you rush to get it taken care of. Also you can specify on your app settings that you want to be notified if insurance doesn’t cover it before you’re charged. At first I had it turned off then after the second month I turned it on. Well then they just charged me without any heads up the third month, completely ignoring my preference. Then, when I looked at the settings it was gone. If I hadn’t spent the money on the annual fee I would drop it. However any more of this insanity and I’ll just delete it all together. So sick of it.
