After reading the negative reviews, I had to come and leave my own review. I have been a Rite Aid…read morepharmacy customer for many many years. As soon as Rite Aid closed and all our prescriptions were transferred over to CVS, I expected a horror show. But I have to give a shout out to every single person behind the Pharmacy counters. When I walked in for the first time to pick up a bunch of prescriptions, the line was very long. However, they had four people helping customers, and the line moved quickly. Each customer was greeted with a smile and a friendly tone, and the transaction was quick. Not once did they get upset, angry or frustrated with any customer even though it was very clear they could've. People are so angry and so quick to judge. You reap what you sow. If you go up to the counter and you start yelling or getting angry at these poor employees (as a few did), you're not gonna get very far with anyone. I expected a long wait and difficult time. I am very happy to say that I was completely wrong. Thanks, CVS for making the transition, smooth and easy!

This is where an independent neighborhood pharmacy decisively outperforms large corporate chains: negligible wait times, direct communication, and an absence of the bureaucratic friction that defines places like CVS. Instead of navigating phone menus or standing in line, you receive prompt, informed service from people who clearly understand their profession. Supporting a local pharmacy like this one isn't merely a nicety--it's the more efficient choice, and it shows.

If I were just rating the pharmacy itself I would give it zero stars. The rest of the place pulled it up by 2 stars as it's just another regular store.

The constant chiming overhead on the speakers is quite annoying to me, but I can only imagine how frustrating it might be on the employees (unless they learn to tune it out, which I would totally understand). Their managers can be seen doing their best to plug the gaps when needed, which as a former pharmacy employee during my late high school and early college years, I can very much appreciate. Their photo department does a great job printing anything I've needed in recent weeks but pro tip, make sure to put your order in at least the night before, to avoid any issues.

The staff here are generally slow, lazy, and in a bad mood despite not getting much work done. Like hire one or two eager teenagers who want to move out and that could be fixed. Better yet, promote a deserving younger person who's motivated and treats both their coworkers and customers well! Prices are generally high here and I'm finding less deals here, at least in stock when something's going on. Pharmacy is just as bad, so the poison seeps deep here. It's mostly unhelpful, clueless, and somehow can't fill a lot of prescriptions so it becomes a waste of time. The kicker is the back entrance is often closed, but at least there's a parking spot!

I went to speak with the staff to update my insurance information since I was waiting anyway.

Then was told the vaccine I made the appointment for was not in stock and they never even carry it. "The schedule system doesn't know what we have". I find it hard to trust a pharmacy that seems so lack of system.
