I've been using the Walgreens in Placentia as my primary pharmacy for the past eight years…read more The most convenient thing about this location is that they have a drive-through window for picking up prescriptions. There is rarely more than a car or two in line, if any. The pharmacy staff has always been friendly and efficient both at the drive-through window and inside. On a few occasions when I needed a prescription urgently, they were always happy to expedite it and have it ready within an hour or two. A few times when my doctor's office was slow to send more refills, they gave me a five day emergency supply so I wouldn't be without a medication. I switched health insurance plans this year and Walgreens is no longer in-network, but I wouldn't hesitate to come back in the future.

Disappointing experience today. Have been developing photos at Walgreens for almost 10 years and…read morethe service has gone down hill drastically as of lately. I placed an online photo order February 20 and then another one yesterday March 1st. I received a text that both photo orders were ready so I went into the store. When I got to the photo counter, I stated that I believed I had two different orders. She asked for the last name and the sizes I told her, and then she looked in the bins behind her. She then quickly said "nope, you only have one order" & slapped the photos on the counter and then told me my total. I thought maybe I misunderstood the text and the second order was still not ready so I paid and left. Once I got to the car I looked at the txts and realized they in fact texted me that both of my orders are ready. I open the envelope she gave me hoping that maybe they place the second order in there because it was only one photo? Once I opened the envelope, I realized that one of the pictures I paid for wasn't even printed. They gave me a blank white picture. And honestly, this is not the first time this has happened. I have been using Walgreens quite often recently for wedding stuff as I am planning our wedding and this is at least the third time I've received a blank photo. The first time I thought maybe it was an oversight and tried to give the benefit of the doubt but three times it's quite ridiculous. In between the blank photos and the rudeness from the staff, I will be finding somewhere else to develop my photos.

I get most of my prescriptions from another pharmacy chain, but my girlfriend gets all of her…read moreprescriptions filled at this CVS and I will often go pick them up for her. This is a pretty busy pharmacy and there is usually a line to pick up prescriptions. Luckily, if you use their app to manage your prescriptions, there is an express line for app users. Show the staff member your bar code in the app, and they quickly grab your prescription and you can skip the line. She has a lot of prescriptions so I am here frequently, and it is always nice to see the same friendly faces. They are also fast to fill prescriptions that you call in and say you need urgently. This CVS also has the biggest greeting card section in the area. They have three full aisles of greeting cards for every occasion. If I am at the grocery store and can't find a good card, I know I can always drive a few blocks to this CVS and find one. They also have two self-checkout stations which is convenient where there is a line for regular check-out.

I finally found my fit with this one. Even with my new insurance they have been able to guide me. Tran is the absolute sweetest, kindest and personable pharmacist I've ever met. Even when I'm ready for meltdown because my prescriptions are lagging to be filled she makes it work. At times anything to do with your medication's being late or not approved can get frustrating but they have handled my meltdowns quite well lol this day was the first day I tried the drive-through. It was a great experience. No one was in line before me so that helped and I think I will do that more often when there's nothing I absolutely have to go inside for.

I'll never go back again…read more Today at the drive thru window an employee with "Ramon" written with sharpie on a sticker on his shirt argued with me regarding a long standing prescription that is on auto refill every 3 months since 2017. He tried every lie. They are not eligible for a refill until June. I don't see them in the system. Okay, I can get them in 2 hours. Oh, how about 20 minutes. Then, when I said to transfer them to a CVS that is less of a hell hole than the Brea one, he didn't verify the location by address so he was going to send it to the wrong location. Finally, after 20 minutes in the drive thru window, "If they are ready in 5 minutes will you keep the prescriptions here?" Hell no. It was like some psycho nightmare. Picking up a Prescription should not be an ordeal with the CVS clerk. I will never go back to this CVS and "Ramon" should be finding another job.

Today reminded me I had never written a review. We came in for flu shots and other vaccines, and the pharmacist Nick was already prepared. He had checked our insurance coverage before we even arrived. Wow, he is sooo skillful! (I am in the medical profession myself, so I know.) His professionalism, cheerful attitude even after working the overnight shift, and the fact that he was so quick and precise--I barely felt a thing--were simply top notch. This is definitely where we will be going for our vaccines from now on.

Walgreens, PLEASE FIRE YOUR PHARMACIST…read more All of your customers, including me, are going to CVS up the street now. Look at all the reviews on here and Google and it's ALL about your abusive pharmacist. People are hurt, suffering, dying and rely on medications to keep them alive. Instead, your pharmacist is literally making people sick. All we want is help, our medications and all we get is someone making excuses for her inability to do her job by yelling at us about how many other customers she has to help. Meanwhile she doesn't answer our questions BUT WE ARE YOUR CUSTOMERS!!! WE SIGNED UP, WE WAITED, AND NOW WE CAN'T GET ANSWERS TO SAVE OUR LIFE AND GET TOLD WE'RE BOTHERING HER. IF SHE IS SO BUSY, GET HER HELP. I HAVE NEVER EVER SEEN A PHARMACIST SO OUT OF LINE AS HER. GET HER THE HELL OUT OF THERE.
