The Druggist Pharmacy in Simpson Bay (adjacent to the WIB-Bank) is just a one (1) minute walk away and has normal daytime business hours.

The MAHO Pharmacy in Maho (at the corner end of the Maho Strip) is just a five (5) minute drive away and has daytime and after-hours business hours.

Both pharmacies will be more than happy to assist you with our digital or printed prescriptions.

SMDC will be more than happy to assist you with refilling your prescription(s) from home. Just book an appointment by phone, WhatsApp or email to request a doctor’s consultation. Once seen, the doctor will assist you with refilling your required medication.

SMDC is conveniently located in the Simpson Bay district, on the main Airport Road, directly across from the SOL Gas Station.

If you are driving, SMDC is only a five (5) minute drive from the Airport, seven (7) minute drive from Maho Beach, and a fifteen (15) minute drive from our Dutch Capital, Philipsburg.

Our SMDC on-site “Priority Doctor” services are available under certain conditions. If you are a visiting tourist, crew member or student and require private medical consultation for yourself or your staff, SMDC will be happy to accommodate your needs (however, certain conditions may apply).
