    UNACCEPTABLE COMMUNICATION & DENIAL OF PHARMACIST ACCESS…read more I attempted to reach a pharmacist via phone, but I was explicitly told by the front desk that the pharmacists "requested not to be forwarded calls anymore." My multiple voicemails, regarding my medication, went completely ignored. This is not just a customer service issue; it is a violation of California Code of Regulations (Title 16, § 1707.2), which mandates a pharmacist's duty to consult. By blocking phone access, this location is choosing convenience over patient safety and ethics. This pharmacy invites medical malpractice and professional misconduct claims. PATIENT RIGHTS: IF YOU HAVE BEEN IGNORED If you have been harmed by this pharmacy's lack of communication, know your rights under California law: THE 10-MINUTE RULE: A pharmacist must be available to speak to you within an average of 10 minutes. ONE-HOUR CALLBACK: If they cannot talk immediately, they must schedule a return call within one business hour. RIGHT TO CONSULT: Patients have an absolute right to an oral consultation "in all settings," including over the phone. If they fail to meet these standards, they can be reported to the California Board of Pharmacy. If their refusal to communicate leads to a medical error, you may be entitled to compensation for professional negligence. ---------- HOW TO FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH THE CALIFORNIA BOARD OF PHARMACY: It takes 3 minutes to hold this CVS legally accountable: Go to the the California Board of Pharmacy website at www.pharmacy.ca.gov Locate the Form: Click on "Consumers" and then select "File a Complaint". You can fill out the form online instantly. Provide the Details: Pharmacy Name: CVS Pharmacy #09689. Address: 950 W Foothill Blvd, Monrovia, CA 91016. The Violation: Specifically cite CCR § 1707.2 (Duty to Consult) and mention that your voicemails were not returned or front staff refused to connect you to a pharmacist. ------------ I have moved my prescriptions elsewhere. WHERE TO GO INSTEAD AMAZON PHARMACY: They offer free home delivery and an "RxPass" that is often cheaper than insurance copays. To switch, just hit "transfer" in their app. VONS PHARMACY (Monrovia): Located on Foothill. It is much quieter, and the pharmacists actually communicate with patients. PAVILIONS PHARMACY (Arcadia): Offers a professional, calm atmosphere with a focus on service. PAX PHARMACY (Duarte): They answer the phone immediately and often provide free local delivery because they value your business.

    Please note: I've been a customer at this location since 2020 (photo evidence attached). However,…read moreI seldom write reviews. Good or bad. Over the years I've come to depend on the professionalism and care the staff provides at this location. True compassion amongst the entire staff and pharmacy. In the midst of the current Los Angeles labor strikes, I wanted to do my SMALL part in supporting our quaint township. Therefore, any positive review I provided this CVS would be incomplete without mentioning Darleen. Over the years, I've noticed the attentiveness and humanity she displays to customers...even under pressure. She is truly a pillar of our community and for that reason I say thanks! FIVE STARS

    COVID-19: Social distancing is enforced at this establishment. All of the staff wears a mask. All…read morecustomers are expected to wear a mask too. The staff also wears gloves. There are some hand sanitizers available for customers to use. This place is available for people to pick up their meds. They have some outdoor seating available with limited capacity. They are not sanitizing in between customers. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. While I was grabbing my meds from this establishment today, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They currently don't have happy hour (duh)! It's a pharmacy! Lol They also do not allow pets in their establishment. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is located behind the building. The parking lot gets full very easily and quickly. If the lot is full, park in the front of the establishment. Beware, the front is street parking only and has a 2 hour time limit. Store & Staff: The store itself is very clean, neat, tidy, and organized. The staff here are very friendly, kind, and welcoming. They are also very fast. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum.

Thank goodness I really liked the employees here because I never had to do a Covid test before but they walked me through the process and eased my nerves. Note: IT WAS A HOME TEST. Definitely come by and get your home Covid tests.

    Arcadia Pharmacy Center is conveniently located in a plaza with Good Fortune Supermarket, right…read morenext to May Mei Restaurant, Yogurtland, and Chang's Garden, making it an easy stop during your daily errands. There's plenty of parking available in the lot, which is always a plus. It's also just across the street from a medical center that includes various clinics, Arcadia MRI & Imaging Center, and other primary care doctors, so it's a very convenient spot if you need to pick up a prescription after a doctor's visit. My family has been using this pharmacy for years. Their pick-up process is very efficient. The staff at the front are kind and helpful, and they have several people working behind the counter to sort inventory and make sure everything runs smoothly. They sometimes offer delivery services, which has been a big help on busy days. While they carry a selection of over-the-counter products like Solstice products, Tiger Balm, Cetaphil, and Vaseline, I do find that these items tend to be more expensive than at other stores, so I usually prefer to purchase them elsewhere. Overall, Arcadia Pharmacy Center is a reliable and efficient neighborhood pharmacy with friendly service. I recommend it for anyone in the area.

    For many years I had a very good relationship with this Pharmacy. I was spending 200, 300, 400 a…read moremonth on medication. Then I moved and haven't done business with him for a while. . today I'm back in Arcadia after having hip surgery. So I called Walter at the pharmacy who owns the business if he would please send me a bottle of certain over the counter medication I need. He refused saying I should get somebody to go to CVS up the street. Unbelievable. Who's all about the money because the medication I needed was not very expensive.
