I made an appointment for a rapid covid test to be performed by pharmacy staff and it's now 45 minutes after checking in for my scheduled appointment that I've been sitting here without my name being called. I get that they're busy but that's just ridiculous... when you make an appointment, it shouldn't take an hour after that appointment before being assisted. I'm about to get up and leave now and will get a rapid covid test that I do at home myself instead. My patience is gone.

I drove up at 6:03 pm and the pharmacy was closed. Saw the pharmacist and tech laughing as they walked to their vehicles. Probably feeling pretty smug about closing down. No remorse whatever. I picked up the medicine today and asked the tech about it and she said that they don't get paid after 6 p.m. and have to close up. Interesting, I have seen them helping customers after 6 p.m. before and I am pretty sure that they got paid for their time. There is no sense of helping anyone out when they are doing their best to get there in time.

(I'm talking an inhaler, 1 pill, nothing that needs an actual dosage or bottle put together) Then it always takes a minimum of 1 hour. Every time I call I'm miraculously the 3rd caller (2 ahead) and I wait on hold for an hour at least (though many times I give up). Drive through....2 cars ahead means 30 min wait. I have come here for years and whatever happened this year has made this pharmacy slow and quite painful.

"Yes, I'd like to pick it up today" 2 hrs later and 20 minutes in line: "I'm sorry, but we don't have it. You'll have to come back in half an hour" MONTH AFTER MONTH. Worst pharmacy. I'd change and stop the insanity but they're the only ones who take GoodRx which is cheaper than using my commercial insurance. Another thing that makes so much sense... DO NOT USE THIS PHARMACY IF YOU CAN HELP IT. Terrible systems -they can never "see" the prescription initially for whatever reason- followed by routine incompetence.

I could get no emergency supply. So, I was told to go to the hospital and have a doctor write me another Rx...really? I can pick up an early supply if I pay the $1,600, but Medicare and Idaho Medicaid wont pay for it. I am now considering Costco.

I was that that time, an extreme foodie, eating my way through Boise and ordering Camembert and Bleu cheeses from France. I knew I had to lose weight and exercise but it's hard to be consistent day and day. out. More than anything it's a mental game. Long story short, I changed my lifestyle and became a vegan, and started to exercise regularly and I am no longer dependent on prescriptions. The rest of the troops do need prescriptions for a variety of reasons and it's super critical to have a friendly and understanding pharmacy. Our first pharmacy was at the Rosauer's location when they were opened. We knew Stacy, Jon, the Steve. They were awesome but when Rosauer's left, we tried several locations including Walmart. What a disaster! Wrong meds sent, wrong meds given to us, long wait times, and overall just poor service. When my wife got a job offer to join Albertsons on Eagle and McMillan, it was completely practical to have all prescription needs filled by the Sav-On team inside the Albertsons. We have consistently been regulars ever since and even though my wife is no longer there at Albertsons. The team is currently being led by Ryan and he's doing a super job with the craziness that has happened over the last two years. His staff has always treated me with respect and courtesy. One particular gent always stops what he's doing, looks up, and greets me, "What's up Friday, Good to see you again". It looks like Cheers for prescriptions. The rest of the team has stayed consistent which means something these days. Most of the time, employees don't stay long and in the pharmacy world, there's always a need for more tachs and more managers. I can't say whether or not that's a good thing per se, but as long as my wife and kids need their meds to function on a daily basis, I am thankful to have Ryan and the team greet me and take care of my family.
