Manager is super rude and treats emoloyees bad. Would not let his employee go to restroom. Always ling lines amd customers dont wear mask. Manager was working with a cough. Maybe you can have supervsior work instead. Dont take coupons. Restrooms were disgusting. Waited over 45 minutes at pharmacy at 8pm at night. Go to cvs on Las Tunas instead. read more

This 24 hour CVS is like the New York Jets. If you're going to do something big (24 hour pharmacy/NFL team), either make a respectable effort or spare us all the results. I'm standing in line behind like 10 people with only one person manning the pick up?!?! I've praised CVS in the past because I like centralization and the idea that I can pick up what I need at any CVS location around the country. I despise small is beautiful localist types who romanticize the mom and pop pharmacy that can sometimes take days to fulfill orders because of inadequate stock and have nothing for you if you go out of town and forget your needs. That praise is being sorely tested by this experience, still going on as I write this scathing polemical review (no that's not redundant - you honestly need a thousand negative adjectives to convey the incompetence of this.) Someone here needs to pick up a queuing theory textbook and reform logistics from the ground-up immediately. read more

I'm glad pharmacy is still open when this world pandemic is going on. However due to social distancing, when you come to pick up your Rx, forget about HIPPA and be ready to yell out your personal information and what prescription you are taking to the person who is 6 ft away at the counter and so that everyone around you can hear your name, DOB, address and what health condition you have. I'm also glad most of the staff working at the counter are wearing masks to protect themselves at work, however, if you are an elderly with trouble hearing, standing 6 ft away, it's really hard to hear what the counter clerks are saying back to you with their masks on. After the pharmacy counter staff named Sammi, with her mask on, calling out "patient last name C", I wanted to make sure if she's calling out my name since there were quite a few people waiting around at the same time. I asked her, "you mean first name C?" Sammi then rolled her eyes and said "whatever, first name C then" loud enough to where I could for sure hear her. It's not just whatever. It's disrespectful. If you don't like your job and don't want to work, please don't show up with an unprofessional attitude disrespecting patients. However, on the flip side, so many people have lost their jobs or gotten a paid cut at this time, you should be grateful you still have a job! After I let her know I didn't appreciate her unprofessionalism, she used the only authority she had, and that was to send me back to the end of the checkout line. My husband and I are both healthcare providers and we like CVS offers good prescription discounts on goodRx. However, from now on though, I'll warn all my colleagues to avoid sending their patients to get Rx filled at this CVS location. Also when patients ask us to call in Rx for them, I will make sure to offer alternative pharmacy options. read more

The pharmacy clerk was super sweet and called me up to be next...next thing I know Dr. Wilson the pharmacist on duty yelled at me to have a seat! Excuse me? The clerk literally called me up to be next. She was even flabbergasted at his rudeness. Extremely Uncalled for and unprofessional. I will be calling corporate because I felt his motive was not only biased but racial. I understand monday 5pm is intense and busy for workers but in NO way is this acceptable. read more

As for the pharmacy, I've come here every day for two hours for my prescription and no one knows where my prescription is. I wait for two hours and there is no one for assistance. the customers are just as bad. read more

Very nice minute clinic service. Kind of a long wait though. But they were very professional and nice. However after my blood pulled out, they didn't even give me a paper towel or like a bandage. But generally I like the service and everything. And I came back on Sunday and its super slow and kiosk wait time is not even correct... read more

This pharmacy department has to be one of the worst in the area. The staff is not friendly at all and very unprofessional. The girl that was "helping" me must be new or a trainee. Whatever she pulled up on screen was "out of stock" so she asked another person and the other girl just said "yea, pick whatever". For a professional pharmacist, stating "whatever" for prescription medication is pretty alarming. After all that computer input, she didn't confirm that she was done with me until I asked if I wad done. Like I said, very unprofessional. If it wasn't because my usual pharmacist didn't have the prescribed dosage available, I would not be here right now. Avoid this pharmacy location if possible. read more

Getting my COVID-19 vaccines, Moderna Doses 1 and 2, at CVS South Baldwin was simply the best. The website was so straightforward and easy to use; I also loved that doses 1 and 2 were scheduled at the same time. In store, getting my vaccine was so convenient, efficient, and comfortable. Linh was kind and friendly. Yay for frontline workers, yay for science, and yay for CVS's role in the vaccine distribution. read more

Typical drug store... with covid, I am not seeing they are serious about protecting the customers.. the self checkout lines asks you so many un necessary questions inputed on a touchscreen , no hand santaizer for customers after use, the clinic has tons of questions and forms to fill on touchscreen.. stinky hand Santaizer for customers next to screen. Line markers on floor are too close.. cashier is not plesant.. read more

Don't go there, I was denied to use the bathroom, even though I was begging to please allow me. Management and employees were rude and unprofessional.and probably need training in basic customer service. I have a medical condition and nobody cared. Apparently "Alley' s law" does not apply to CVS!!!!!! I felt so humiliated and descrminated that I should probably make the press aware of their total disregard of a basic human need/right. read more

Unbelievable! Waiting for a prescription pick up and clerk going through baskets and baskets of prescriptions to go through to find the right one. Incompetence at its best! read more

Large location, open 24 hours, has a pharmacy and CVS minute clinic. That is all the quick positives I can think of this place. Even though it's such a large store, the pharmacy and CVS minute clinic has a long wait time. This is because they have the same number of staff as a smaller CVS but just with a large floor plan. So if you have any questions or need help finding a product you often have to go up to the cashiers and ask them. Even though the items are on sale, you can find a cheaper price on Amazon.com. The item selection is paired down, with a focus on cheap brands at a mark-up. Good for snacks and sodas, like a giant 7-11 but any home goods you'll most likely find prices marked up. read more

This is one of the few 24 hour CVS Pharamcy in the area. I think the next closest one would be on Main Street/Las Tunas in Alhambra. However this is almost twice the size!! It really has everything here from food to small household appliances to a huge section of beauty/skin care/make up products to office supplies. This store seems to be well stocked of all the items they offer. I went in there recently to buy mostly household cleaning supplies and they had all that I was looking for. I just didn't like the fact that I had to get an opened box of the Swifter starter kit because some previous customer had opened it to check. They only had one left of that starter kit and I didn't want to drive to another store to find another one. Luckily I checked the box to make sure all the parts were there, so I bought it. Make sure you sign up for their card so you get rolls of coupons! If you don't use the coupons though, it will be on the pricey side. The only thing I would suggest in improving this store is creating a prominent area for people waiting in line. When there are only 2 cashiers at checkout, having a "form a line" area would be useful so customers do not start forming two separate lines. read more

This is the CVS that I come to pick up medicine from. I understand that the pharmacists and workers have long shifts. During my visits, I've often been helped by a pharmacist named Wilson Lam. He is extremely rude to me and I've chosen to ignore it many times. However, this afternoon, as I was waiting for my medicine, I saw that he was working with an elderly couple. The elderly couple were really kind and patient despite Wilson Lam treating them horribly. He raised his voice and constantly scolded them when the couple asked questions. I'm utterly speechless at how their customers are treated even more at the fact that it was two elders who had difficulty hearing and walking. read more

Trashy. Manager is rude as hell. straight up talking sh*T about customers. Never nice to me always a stress a hole.

NO TO CVS! Changing our Family Pharmacy from CVS to any other pharmacy now. First time to this location and experienced bad service too soon - Once is enough. I changed our Pharmacy to this one as it is the closest but it won't hurt to go somewhere farther with good or at least decent customer service. It seems like there is a lot of better ones than CVS especially than this location. Reviews of others about some employees here were true, especially with the Pharmacy Tech Stephanie C., the lady with punky colored hair and nose ring (I think it's called a bull ring). Very unpleasant personality and seems like she is not happy where she is. Maybe CVS is not treating or at least training its employees well.. read more

I went there to pick up the masks provided by the fed on the first day available, and the clerk at the pharmacy said to us they are all out and they are not going to get them anymore. On the first day? I looked over the clerk shoulder, and I saw there were a bunch of them in the back room. I wonder why they are not giving them out? Most likely, they keep them for themselves. By the way, this location always has a very bad service. read more

This used to be my go-to CVS for its Minute Clinic and easy drugstore goods. It's fairly average as drugstores go, but this last incident left a bad taste in my mouth. Unfortunately, it's not directly about CVS, but the customers it serves and allows to run around do contribute to the overall shopping environment. My mom and I were shopping moisturizers. As normal customers do, our cart was parked nearby as we browsed. Then this customer 2x the size of my mom in height and girth pushes up with her cart, saying "YOU guys have to move." No hint of "excuse me" or "pardon me." This wasn't a language issue or an unfamiliarity with social etiquette. Fine, we naturally scoot because we're not at CVS to block randos and we can overlook small acts of rudeness. Then, she sprinkles our moving with remarks of "more, more, more, more" and swatting hand movements until she's clear. My mom frequents this CVS, and let's just say I'm disappointed she has to deal with these types of people probably more often than once. read more

This CVS pharmacy have the worse staffs ever. I go to a few cvs pharmacy around the San Gabriel valley area. And all seems to have nice employees except this place. Both the technician who was working is very rude. They ignore your questions. The pharmacist himself is not that friendly. I was asking a question to the pharmacy tech and she reply rudely. Then I asked her about payment and she totally ignored and walk away. What the f. See photo. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Very rude pharmacy tech - Drugstores Near Me - ARCADIA, California

Veronica is by far the rudest woman working at this pharmacy, Veronica I highly recommend you relearn what customer service is. Number one you do not yell at people to get in line while you are clearly with a customer and on the phone, we are not there to be dominated by you. Secondly, you are dealing with sick patients that want to pick up their medication. Now to the CVS manager, I hope you take this complaint to heart and help your employees understand the value of a customer. Veronica, I hope you learn to be a kinder person to the patients that come to this CVS Pharmacy or perhaps get another job. read more

Tonight Eden checked my order. She went out to find me the proper shampoo that I had a discount on my card. Thank you for all her care. Love shopping at CVS. Manager and all employees are great. read more

This pharmacy sucks! If it wasn't for the fact that they're open 24 hours I would never want to step in here again. I don't know if they accept too many patients or the staff are utterly incompetent. The worst experience was today when my doctor called the office at 4:30pm and by the time we went to pick up the medication at 6:15pm we were told they didn't bother refilling the prescription or done the write up yet and we had to wait 20-25 minutes. A FREAKING HOUR LATER (not an exaggeration I took an image of the coupon on my moms phone with my phone because her battery is dying and the time stamp showed it took an hour). By the time they finally call our name and when I showed them the coupon I have the lady has the nerve to berate us for not showing the coupon first! What the hell is their problem?! Meds aren't cheap and it's not like I'm asking for them for free. If they didn't slack on my prescription I could have shown them the coupon then. So she sends us to another man to fix the price and he fixed it and then gave our meds to another pharmacist to REFILL OUR PRESCRIPTION AGAIN. After 75 minutes I rushed to get out. So freaking rude. So chaotic. Protip: download GoodRx to save money on your prescription and DGAF when they get moody. read more

Many unknowledgeable people at the pharmacy counter. Slow service. Good luck getting them to pick up their phone when you call in.

Horrible! Rude..rude...RUDE!! I called to speak to someone in the pharmacy on Sept. 9th 2020 @ 3:57pm and had a terrible exchange with the person on the other end of the phone. The woman I spoke too was not helpful and rude. I have transferred all my prescriptions to another CVS! I gave this store too many chances and will not return. Too many choices out here... find another pharmacy! PS - The store location is wrong on my review... I picked the CVS in Glendora Ca. located on Arrow Hwy and Bonnie Cove read more

Worst place ever to get a flu shot. This is second time now where I have signed up and then no one ever calls my name. They just forget about me completely. It's almost no use giving this location a poor Yelp rating because it already has a lousy rating. Absolutely terrible customer service. read more

I can't thank enough this 24 hour pharmacy who actually has a pharmacist on duty to fulfill prescriptions. my husband had terrible cough and I had to get a prescription for antibiotics. Other CVS doesn't have 24 hour pharmacists but this location does. I called to confirm that they were open and the pharmacist on duty on a Saturday night confirmed antibiotics was available there. It was a drive from Alhambra but I don't mind since I was just happy they were open. Thank you to the pharmacist. read more

I love the fact that this pharmacy is open 24/7 even on major holidays, but I was disappointed when they had me waiting 40 minutes to tell me that my Rx was not available because they don't have it in stock. They should have checked first to make sure they had it in stock before telling me to wait for 15 minutes for my name to be called on the intercom which they did not or give me the option of going with an alternative medication. Moving forward I will fill all my Rx at AllCare Pharmacy in El Monte. It may not be a 24/7 pharmacy but at least they will not waste my time by telling me if they have the medication in stock. Sorry to leave you CVS for my future Rx. I am giving you 2 stars because I was lucky enough not having to wait in line for more than 10 minutes. read more

It never fails here, workers and pharmacists are too slow and minimum of 25 mins wait in both the drop off and pick up lines. Avoid.

I needed a TB test clearance for a new job. I learned that certain CVS locations have something called "The minute clinic". Its like a Dr's office except in a drug store. The Minute Clinic offered the TB test i needed and it seemed like the most convenient option for me. It's a spacious store and was pretty organized for the most part. The makeup counter was a bit of a mess but that's pretty much the case at any drug store lol. So back to the Minute Clinic... it only has ONE person working...which is stupid.. And because there is only one person working, the line moves very VERY slowly. They don't take insurance for most of their testing which sucks because they charged to not only perform the TB test but also to read the TB test 2 days later. I also found out that you can save your spot in line ahead of time so that you're not just waiting around in CVS for hours. YES, I did spend a lot of time waiting around there and Yes, I did get suckered into buying a bunch of stuff i don't really need. So, if you need a quick diagnoses or test, i would recommend the Minute Clinic. Just make sure you go online and check in from home to save your spot in line ahead of time! read more

See all

It has taken about 2 hours to get a partial prescription order. First, it took me 40 minutes of standing in line, finding out there's no prescriptions waiting for me, me calling my doctor to make sure they sent the prescription, the pharmacy not finding anything in their fax machine, me calling my doctor to find they sent the prescription once more, and standing in line to find out that the pharmacy was finally be able to obtain the prescription from their outdated technology. Then it takes the pharmacy technician 20 minutes to manually type all the prescriptions in (at least I assume that's what they're doing since they seem to type forever..). Add another half hour to wait for the prescription to be filled and another half hour to stand in line to finally get my prescription. The employees don't seem too happy working here either but I don't blame them. The frustrating technology and the fact that they are understaffed are holding everyone back. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Isnt it always?? The service always seems slow at the pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - ARCADIA, California

I came here tonight to pick up my prescription because I have respiratory infection and I'm coughing up my lungs, SO I WANT MY MEDICINE, Y'KNOW?!!!!!!! I waited in line for what seemed like an hour (I think it was, actually). I played Sally's Spa on my boyfriend's iPhone .. for like 4 or 5 mother effing rounds dude. DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG 1 ROUND IS? I finished a whole level!!!!!! NO JOKE. So after someone is finally able to help me, she tells me they have my prescription but they didn't type it up yet, so she tells me to wait another 15 minutes. 15 minutes later .. the guy asks for my insurance card, which I do not freaking have. I call my mom to give him my insurance # or whatever, he tells me to wait another 15 minutes. 20 minutes later my medicine is FINALLY READY. I felt like I spent my whole night at that dang pharmacy. (haha I even met a lady while I was waiting who told me she paid a kid $1 to stand in line for her while she napped in a chair ... FOREAL? yes foreal.) In conclusion, this pharmacy sucks. Hire more people or something, my gosh. The pick up line feels like a Disneyland ride line. It was like I was waiting for freakin' Space Mountain, except the only difference between CVS and Space Mountain is that I DIDN'T EXPERIENCE AN AWESOME RIDE TO MAKE UP FOR THE LONG ASS WAIT. Service is horrible and everyone looks like they hate their job. -.- When I'm sick, I don't want to be around MORE grouchy people when I'm grouchy myself. UGHHHHH horrible!! read more

I actually like this CVS. This is 24 hours... but I went on a regular time but it's BIG. It's between the 210 and the 10 freeway and it's REALLY big. I like that it's huge - more options. Parking: Big but beware of bad parking jobs :/ I've seen it... it's sad. Prices are alright. Target may be better in some stuff but I needed last minute stuff. Their beauty selection is actually kinda small from what I have seen before. They did have some pricey brands but eh... I couldn't find the Nexxus Natural Organic shampoos... but the CVS website had it :/ Check out was fast and easy. They were friendly. I like CVS, lots of random stuff. I got a TO GO Curling Iron for $10 and then it qualified me to get $10 later from CVS. Sweet. read more

Note to parents of babies and young children who live in the SGV: this CVS Pharmacy is open 24 hours, including the pharmacy counter with professional druggists on duty. Just a tip. Actually, I came to this pharmacy to get a prescription for myself. For the past couple of days, what I thought had been a cold or allergy turned out to be an upper respiratory infection, according to the doc I saw at the urgent care clinic this evening. AHA! So that was why the three different OTC medications I bought weren't working - I was sicker than I thought. Because there were so many people at the urgent care clinic with similar afflictions of varying degrees, there was a long waiting list - so I didn't get out of there until after 10:00 p.m. Fortunately, the clinic provided a list of 24 hour pharmacies and this CVS in Arcadia was on that list. I didn't want to wait 'til the morning to get my meds, so off to Arcadia I went. When I got there, it was around 10:30 and still pretty busy, esp. in the pharmacy dept. I dropped off my prescription and was told it would only take 20 minutes to fill and that they'd page me when it was ready. So I walked around the store (it's huge, by the way), looked at magazines, and tried to find the kleenex aisle. The store had a really funky layout (kind of a "Y" shape) so despite the generous distribution of aisle signage, I had no idea that kleenex would be next to feminine products and not paper towels. Finally, after what felt like 20 minutes, I decided to head back to the pick-up area of the pharmacy to inquire about the status of my meds. It had been ready 10 minutes ago, the clerk said. Well, why didn't I get a page, I asked. She said because it hadn't been 20 minutes yet. Hey, hey, HEY! Don't mess with Sick Girl here! I was not in the mood to argue, so I paid for my meds and left. The only plus side of this store is the 24-hour convenience. I much prefer my own CVS pharmacy in Azusa since it's closer to home and the pharmacy staff are nicer. At least they don't have a 24-hour attitude like this Arcadia location. read more

So what compelled me to review a drugstore? It's either good service or really bad ones. Unfortunately for me, it was the latter. While I appreciate a neighborhood drugstore that opens 24 hours around the clock, I now understood WHY stay open the whole day: it is to accomodate the inefficient, disinterested employees that work there so they can ring all the poor, trapped customers up before the day is over. My most recent experience at the photo center was beyond horrible. I had a few prints I wanted right away so I selected the photo printing "in seconds" rather than "in an hour" while paying a premium for such "service." I first had to line up to tell the employee that something was wrong with the machine, because nobody would care to make sure if anyone needed assistance (they were not that busy). Once I was finally able to place my order, the disinterested employee told me to wait "a couple of minutes and she will be right with me." Okay, so I waited a couple of minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes while the disinterested employee saw me waiting but never cared to tell me why it was taking so long. I finally had to LINE UP again to ask for someone to check for my order that supposedly to take "seconds." It turned out that the disinterested employee never press the button for the photos to print!!! The prints finally printed after 1800 seconds ( 30 minutes x 60sec/minute). Once the photos were printed, I had to, YUP, you've guessed it, LINE UP again to pay for my damn order. Beware of "in seconds" printing service -- because while they may say that they will be out "in seconds", they don't tell you HOW MANY seconds it will take. It may take thousands of seconds. Never again. read more

i usually don't mind this cvs it WAS my favorite cvs stocking wise. i excuse the long wait time and slow printer but today really did it for me. i had a coupon that i sent to my card and also have a digital print and if you're a long time shopper of cvs like me you know how the coupons work and if they don't scan you can type the barcode for it that's on the coupon. or the coupon code that is also on the digital print the guy refused to take my coupon saying i should have it printed . but i sent it to my card and it disappeared but i have the digital print which is proof it didn't expire yet he still refused to take it the cashier lady next to him told me to print it at cvs and just pay for the print. like maybe she doesn't understand the concept of coupons? lol i'm starting to think maybe it's because they're racist. they're willing to take other ethnicities nonphysical coupons but won't take mine. oh well. i have no problems at the other cvs for taking my digital coupon. because once u use it it invalidates it from being used again anyways (: so welp there goes ur $100 sale read more

This pharmacy CANNOT get its act together! We left them years ago, but now our insurance says we have to use them. Dropped off the information last week to transfer one single prescription. Explained that they'll have to call the doctor to get the updated Rx, that it wasn't a simple transfer. Went in several days later and yup, you guessed it, the update had not been made. They said it would be a few more days. Not only was ours wrong, but the people on both sides of us were complaining that theirs were wrong too. We haven't used this pharmacy in probably 20 years and they STILL suck! Filing a complaint with the insurance company immediately! There must be something else we can do so we aren't forced to deal with this incompetence. read more
