La Botica Pharmacy is a proud, locally owned pharmacy at the heart of Coachella, CA. Founded by Chandra Patel and Sapna Patel, this husband-and-wife duo turned a shared dream into reality: to create a pharmacy that truly looks after the needs of the local Hispanic community and prioritizes exceptional, personal service.

The Owners: Chandra & Sapna Patel

Chandra and Sapna Patel are more than just business partners—they are passionate community members with a vision for change. Their journey began with a simple question: How can we serve our neighbors better?

Family Dedication

As first-generation pharmacy owners, the Patels saw the gap in individualized, caring healthcare for the residents of Coachella and the surrounding East Valley.

Hands-On Approach

From the pharmacy counter to community outreach, Chandra and Sapna are involved in every aspect of the business, ensuring every patient feels like family.

A Mission Fueled by Compassion

Inspired by their own experiences and cultural roots, they built La Botica to bridge the gap between corporate pharmacy chains and personalized care.

Their path wasn’t without challenges, but their commitment to serving the underserved made La Botica Pharmacy a trusted name in the community.

Why La Botica Pharmacy Stands Out

Personalized Care:

Our staff takes time to get to know you and your needs, making every visit welcoming and efficient.

Fast Service: 

We fill most prescriptions in under 15 minutes—much quicker than the long waits often found at large chains.

Affordable Pricing: 

We are committed to beating any cash price offered by competitors, without sacrificing quality or care (as long as price doesn’t fall below cost).

Trusted by Many: 

Many of our patients are so pleased with our service and prices that they recommend us to friends and family.

Our Commitment to the Community

For over 40 years, Coachella residents had limited pharmacy options, typically relying on large chains overwhelmed by volume and unable to address individual needs. La Botica Pharmacy was founded to change that narrative, bringing focus back to fast, compassionate, and community-centered care.
