  • Scrypt app

    The Scrypt app is just one way to get your script filled with Essence Dispensary. If you’d like to use the Scrypt app, our team must set you up on our system first.

    For the medication dispatch/dispense, our team needs to 'approve' the order first.

    Get the app 

  • Transfer

    If another pharmacy previously filled your current script, we need to transfer the script. For paper-based scripts, this must be sent direct from the pharmacy or a clinic/doctor. Give us the details and we'll arrange on your behalf.

    Email us the details

Our independence

Essence Dispensary is completely independent. While we work alongside some great health practitioners and doctors—who you can book through our team or in-store—but they’re not part of our business, and we don’t endorse or have any control over their work.

We offer our consultation room for them to use, so they can help support our customers.

Essence is all about our team: Dharni, Jay, Jeff, Jessi, Breanna, and Nancy. Everything we do comes from us.
