Waited more than 35 minutes for an employee to assist me with getting eye drops from the locked cabinets. Will be shopping at Amazon prime moving forward. Not the first time this happens. read more

Everyone in this pharmacy has an attitude problem, especially the pharmacist or whatever the ones with the white coats wear! I'm tired of having to come here and feel like I inconvenienced their work time, it's just rude. read more

Horrible Service, one of the guys on pickup where you scan your code to get your medication was really rude. I don't know his name but he acted like I should already know what to do. It was my first time here picking up medicine. Never again. I was told I should receive a message when it's ready so I was literally waiting for hours. (Which I understand everyone is trying to get their medicine for THEIR HEALTH) I received a dexa injection from my primary doctor and I was supposed to take my medication right after but it's been so delayed. On the app it showed that it was going to be ready tomorrow so I contacted them and told them that I needed it today because I was supposed to take it after my injection. They said it should be ready after 6:30pm (I received my injection at 12pm) so again I waited for 2 more hours only for them to message me that it's out of stock. So I had to transfer my RX. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Messages with CVS - Drugstores Near Me - Bell, California

I've been coming to this CVS location on Atlantic Ave in Bell for years, and the staffing issue has never improved. Every single time I visit the pharmacy, there are 100+ people waiting and only two employees working. The line wraps around the store, kids are crying, elderly people are standing for long periods, and people who are clearly sick are forced to wait over an hour just to pick up medication. This is not the employees' fault -- they are clearly overworked and doing their best. This is a management issue. Two pharmacy staff members for this level of volume is unacceptable. CVS corporate needs to seriously address staffing at this location. Customers deserve basic efficiency and care, especially when it comes to healthcare and prescriptions. Until staffing improves, I cannot recommend this location. read more

Workers were super rude and trying to intimidate me!? I asked for a medicine that was locked up and they said it was broken and couldn't open which I understood but her approach was RUDE and stood there next to me trying to make me feel uncomfortable? I didn't get her name but she had long black hair and glasses and was up in the registers. read more

Worst CVS EVER! They are always short staffed, lines are always so long! And nobody ever wants to help you when you click the button for assistance when you want to purchase something that's locked! I could never come in here and get something fast it always takes forever!!! read more

Horrific!! I had to stop buy for basic needs that should have taken five minutes, the cashier straight up dismissed me. Just to have his coworker call Him back to the cashier but he took his time. Other cashier was also incompetent. read more

On 8/19/25 at 6:40 PM, I came into CVS after receiving a call from the store manager earlier that day telling me I could finally pick up my refund for a gift card I purchased that had no balance on it. It took CVS two months just to reach this point. When I arrived, I was met with an extremely rude and unprofessional woman named Karina, who falsely claimed to be the manager. She said she "wasn't informed about the situation" and, without asking me a single question or contacting anyone for clarification, told me she simply "can't help me." She treated me as if I had done something wrong, even though I had been nothing but patient while waiting two months to fix CVS's mistake. This was by far the worst customer service experience I've ever had. I don't understand how CVS hires people like this to represent their stores. Customers deserve respect, professionalism, and at the very least a fair attempt to resolve issues--especially when the company is at fault. read more

This is ridiculous it's suppose to be open 24/7 I get there to try & purchase medicine for my sick child & it's closed. I see a worker working & I asked him aren't you guys suppose to be open my baby is really sick I need the medicine, he just shrugs & points at the CLOSED sign. I got across the street to the 7/11 & see a couple of workers there just chilling. read more

Pharmacy is not open 24 hours, closes at 11:00PM, and closed for lunch 12:30-1:00PM. Opens at 8:00 AM. Huge lines, not enough employees means long wait times. Friendly when you finally get to a cashier or pharmacist, but try late evenings or early mornings. read more

I am so upset / disgusted by this I can't believe this was even sold here , me and my daughter came just to get a snack and it was expired. Since 2024 of September staff needs to be aware of checking. Expiration date this is not okay and btw my daughters stomachs be hurting since she ate the donut and threw up this is not okay at all !!! This needs to be resolved asap ! read more

See all

HORRIBLE!!! They're closed for an hour in the middle of the day for lunch but this isn't stated ANYWHERE. The least they can do is post that they're closed from during certain hours. After waiting for half an hour and getting a phone call, they can't find the medication AND they wanted me to make the line again to process insurance information. HORRIBLE is an understatement!!! read more

Love this CVS. Atmosphere is chill, no yelling, chill workers. Always great coming here

Don't come to this CVS and waste your time.. I needed assistance with laundry soap, pressed the button 3x.. luckily RiteAid opens in 20. Never coming here again.. and no, the store is not crowded and they have plenty of employees working the shelves. read more

It's happened multiple times.. although all the signage indicates "Open 24/7" they lock the doors for the majority of the overnight... typically don't open until 7ish read more

This cvs is trash been waiting in line on the pharmacy for a long time and also they been letting people in the line with out waiting line and everyone is waiting in line not a good pharmacy people could be died by the time you get your medication read more

Today I had one of the most horrible worst experience at the Pharmacy. We got there at 12:15 and by 12:20 they were stopping anyone from getting in line because they were not taking any more customers to pick up their much needed medication.they close at 12:30 and have you come back until 1:00pm I don't understand why if you are already in line they make you leave and come back because they need to go to lunch. They are also so rude to everyone as they are pretty much yelling at you to leave and not to get in line because they are closing for lunch! Rude rude rude!! The pharmacist and all those pharmacy techs girls so rude never going back there again good riddance!!! Zero stars read more

The waiting time is super horrible , the line it was almost to the exit and customers service was bad

Came in for my Dogs prescription and the pharmacist is just terrible! She has not customer service skills! Freaken lags it just to put info in the computer like they are writing in an essay! Dang they take an eternity just to check you in and then for her to still respond to that she can't read the #'s of MG my dogs prescription saids! Omg I'm sooooo over this lame place!! This place is always the worse wait ever!!! This should be NO Star!!! read more

CVS Pharmacy - The check in to prescription area! - Drugstores Near Me - Bell, California

Please don't fall for their open 24/7 false advertisement. I came to this exact location today May 22,2025 at 2am and the store was closed , I thought they were restocking therefore I came back at 3am and the store was still closed. 4am and the store continues to be closed while you can visibly see 2 female store employees chitchatting with one another as if they don't have customers outside waiting to go in the store. My daughter has a neck fracture and I needed a soft neck brace support since the one the hospital provided ripped and she has been using the hard neck support. A couple here has been waiting since before 2am as stated by the couple and the employees have just been socializing. How disappointing CVS do better at training your staff or at hiring. Or simply update your store hours. read more

Always understaffed. Ridiculous wait times. It's always the case no matter what time or day of the week

I bought a hair mask and it was expired so I went back to get my refund as they should give it and I checked the other products and there was expired products. Shouldn't employees check the products year date to see if there expired before putting them in the shelf read more

I couldn't purchase Claritin D because "the system is down" and it didn't read the purchase. How is this a customers fault? All they could say is oh drive to another CVS. Disservice to the community. read more

Asian manager on 5/30/2023 at 11:15am very rude, no patience at all. I just informed him I will be doing 2 transactions and asked me why can't I just do 1. I am not sure if he was just having a bad day, but very rude. As soon as I told him if I had an rewards and if my coupon went through and said oh you are one of those. Couponers always demanding. I said look I don't know what you are talking about but I do have the $10 care pass I was wondering if I have it and he ignored me and applied it and that was it. Please be patient and don't be little your customers if they are trying to save. read more

Normally, I don't like the reviews but I came here half an hour away from where I live To find myself with the pharmacist being close because they're out for lunch having to wait an hour for them to open... ridiculous what's going on with the corporate or the manager ??? while us customers have to attend sick children at home read more

Most CVS stores I've gone to have good customer service but the City of Bell's CVS Pharmacy y Mas has been the most impressive with friendly, patient, knowledgeable and professional attention, especially the pharmacy department. Thank you, CVS PyM staff! read more

This one star is for the Pharmacy too bad there are not 0 Stars. I literally almost got attacked in the pharmacy, I am nearsighted and need to raise my phone up to read the text. A tech Magali looked at me and walked over to Ronald who proceeded to walk out and say it was against the law to photograph and I was breaking HIPPA Law, then he said he was going to call the police, and then Maria another tech started yelling at me and said it was against the law and I needed to erase whatever I had on my phone and she needed to get my phone, I said no and that now I was going to record, I raised my phone to record her and she came out from the back of the counter towards me to try to take my phone away, and she stopped after people told her she was out of control, I then told her I was going to call the police, she wanted me to give her my name and I said not til the cops get here and she said "don't worry I will get it when you pick up your Medicines" They even called all the staff from the front, and they were actually helpful as I explained I was not filming, etc. they said it will be best to call the RX manager in the morning, I am now transferring my whole prescription as now I do not feel safe picking up my RX from this location, the RX staff there has always been rude and lazy, the line was super long and these 3 Techs, RONALD, MAGALI, and Maria were chatting away, they have no Idea of how to deescalate the situation, specially Maria demanding I give her my phone so she can make sure I have not taken photos, and they were going to call the police on me. etc. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST MOST Embarrassing visit to this location ever! A customer behind me came up to me and said he took a photo of the techs, he emailed to me, I am attaching below read more

I needed a passport photo. I came to this CVS last week. I understand people take a break or need a lunch. But when they told me the wait was 45 minutes I left. I came back today. And again tried to get my passport photo. This time they tell me no passport photos at all. This store wasted so much of my time. The only 1 star is the lady was nice. read more

I think the pharmacy staff might need some training, I witness them get mad at a customer because of the employees fault. The customer left with his stuff but no instructions for the medication. I hope he is okay w/ no instructions. By the way to me it was like if they discriminated but I can't be the judge completely. The location needs better staff in the pharmacy. read more

Came to print out pictures and selected the option to print in seconds. (12 pictures, nothing crazy, but needed them asap). When I went to the register your employee named Ronnie said I had to come back in an hour as this option isn't available. Maybe this should be posted somewhere as it's false advertisement. I came back an hour later to find out that my order didn't go through because I did 't select the 1 hour option. Your employee didn't mention this. Maybe train your employees or post the correct signs. read more

Don't bitter pushing the button for customer support for items behind a glass case. They don't show up read more

Workers are super rude, "Nelson F" definitely you better learn how you speak with costumers. Horrible customer service

Maria the cashier was so hostile when I asked if she can scan a reward I had like girl chilll out how hard is it to scan a barcode

This CVS is ridiculous.... Pharmacy has a short drop off line with a Loooong wait just to drop off. The girl behind the counter is taking about 20 minutes per drop off. You can tell she really hates her job cause she is not putting any effort to pick up her pace. The pick up line is faster than the drop off. Management needs to step in but of course, no where to be seen. There is only one clerk at drop off and pick up during the busy evening. HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! read more

Bad service for years these franchise don't care about customers service ,one cashier open on a 20 ppl line ??? Come on!!

With this CVS, you need to learn when to go because they get a long line with only one register open ALOT. Morning, Noon and Night. It's always packs. There have been few times that I've experienced light traffic but with the COVID thing, I'm surprised they haven't added more cashier's to get rid of this traffic. It's very unsettling. read more

Awful staff. Manager on duty was my cashier, after asking to confirm the price on an item, his response was, "It was on the label when you grabbed the item." He then decided to call me "Stupid". I couldn't believe i was just called stupid by an employee, let alone a manager. When i told him i heard and understood what he had called me- he remained silent. This is beyond unprofessional and he should not represent CVS. read more

Unbelievable came in for a Passport photo! And it wasn't busy. No line came in around 1:30. I spoke to Kenneth Han the manager if I can get a passport photo. He quickly said the wait was 30min-1hr wait. I said ok. But then I just saw him standing around not doing anything and didn't want to attend me! Why is he there? What a unprofessional person! How is he a store manager? Waste of time! read more

I was with my daughter paying and I was already paying with my card and my daughter tried to grab our stuff that we are PAYING FOR and the rude cashier decided to snatch the stuff away from her thinking we where gonna steal even if we where paying for it and she even saw me paying for the stuff. Honestly i would give it a 0 but it's not possible and honestly I feel insulted but ima just let it be but if this happens again we will most likely not be coming back. read more

I purchased an e-gift card from CVS and when I was going to pay, I showed it to them on my phone so I can pay for my items. The cashier said she needed to call the manager to do it for her. Okay, fine. The manager said I had to print the gift card and they refused to let me use my gift card. I went to another CVS and they accepted my gift card and they didn't even have to call a manager. Rude service! read more
