I have been going to this CVS location for years and I have to say that it has really gone downhill…read morein recent times. I am giving three stars still because all the folks working at the pharmacy are great! They are helpful, knowledgeable and friendly which is the only reason I have continued going there. However, it seems that in the last year or so, anytime I go into this location, it is just about impossible to find any employees to help you out in the rest of the store aside from the pharmacy. Today, I was walking around trying to find an employee for 10 minutes to unlock an item for me-- and I was never able to get help! So I finally just left and went to another store.

I need to use a restroom and was told to go next door. This is a place to avoid based on what I went through. Only plus was they do have a good phone call back system to let you know when your script was ready/ Next time I will try Savon next door and hope it is better.

Those days are gone because of terrible people like Taymaan.
