Thank you sooo much to the kind employee a man let me use the restroom. I came in because I have urinary incontinance and needed to buy depends for myself and few other supples as this is my local cvs. The pharmacist was such a rude lady. She tried to fight me. She lied and said they had no bathroom and I would have to go to pizza place next door. It's illegal in state of New York to deny restroom unless it's actually broken. But it was not. I accepted it. I had feeling she was Lieing so I asked another employee up front. I went and came back to tell her she shouldn't lie about that. She yelled and me and scared me she said excuse me stay here NOW and was trying to get out of her spot with "I'm going to get you eyes" and I ran away to front and bought my stuff then booked it. Again thank you to that man I will continue to come but avoid that pharmacy section from now on. You should check your cameras the way she was about to come at me in front of customers was insane. read more

The Store is Understaffed. The Employees are overwhelmed at the Pharmacy department. Orders are all over the place.

CVS itself OK Pharmacy OK 2 stars for lack of security at entrance door have to warn everyone about aggressive panhandler next to cvs demanded cash blocking my way out of the store when been ignored cursed me out significantly and followed me to my car. I had to lock myself in a car, but he blocked my way and kept cursing me and touching my car so I had to call police read more

See all

I was harassed and threatened by aggressive panhandler sitting at entrance door of CVS and asking for cash, I watched him acting smart he bypasses big tall males and sexually harasses young females who go to store unaccompanied and he gets no cash he gets angry and makes derogatory comments, very scary incidents, will not return, not feel comfortable and intimidated I will not complaint about CVS employees though just felt not secure going there any more read more

There's never a line less than 30 minutes to pickup your prescription. My doctor sent in a prescription today, I called to see when the prescription would be ready for pickup and the pharmacist on the phone said it was ready now. I go and stand in line for 35 minutes today only to be told that the prescription was not ready and probably won't be for another two hours. Wow!! Why tell someone it is ready when it is not, What a waste of time read more

I was at CVS store today I was aggressively panhandled by individual standing at entrance of store blocking me on my way out when refused in having money he insulted me heavily with derogatory sexual remarks and followed me to my car I warned him I would call police so went back to CVS entrance and stopped following me but kept yelling and swearing at me from distance with disgusting personal insults of sexual nature would not be back for the sake of personal safety read more

Ah cmon! 2.5 stars?! I literally never have an issue when I come here. The staff is attentive, helpful, and prompt when it comes to getting products that are locked away. Everyone is always in good spirits. No complaints! read more

My doc faxed over a prescription. They wouldn't take it. I found out after two trips and waiting on a long line each time. They never contacted my doctor or me. This is the first and last time I will go to this pharmacy. It's clear that you will always have to wait on a long line at this location, and the staff is not pro-active if a problem comes up. My long-time pharmacy was much, much better. The panhandler mentioned in a review posted a short while ago was still at the entrance when I left. It was dark and didn't feel safe. read more

If you are picking up a prescription from this CVS plan to have a least an hour to wait in line. Never had less than a 35 minute wait for a prescription and only one person working the register. Can't get through to them on the phone either even after waiting 40 minutes on hold. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I am a regular at this CVS and there is always problems with their machines not giving extracare bucks back. The lady manager is absolutely RUDE and will come up with any excuse not to give you your extra care bucks even when their sign says it. Then when you bring it to their attention that their sign says it they will rip the signs down in front of you and say that's not right when it's on the certain products label. Spare yourself and never go to this CVS store read more

The staff are consistently rude and unhelpful. Lines are extremely long and wait times are insane. Pharmacists are not helpful and

Self service is at this location. Again, this is another CVS with a low employees to customer ratio. Do not expect fabulous service. An employee can only be one place at a time. Store is messy so it may take some extra time to find what you need. This CVS is in a prime location but unfortunately between extremely messy customers and not enough employees to pick up after them its a less than desirable store. read more

I am recovering from COVID and ran out of the RX cough medicine I really need. CVS didn't even bother calling me to tell me it was ready but they called my husband for some reason, I walked all the way there while sick, no one on staff is even wearing a mask. The guy at the pharmacy could care less that they are out of my medicine. After waiting 20 minutes in line to get no help he told me I had to go wait in the other line so they could try to pick up the medicine from some other pharmacy. Now I wasted 40 minutes of my workday and I have to go all the way to jamaica just so I don't have another coughing attack. They need to get organized and have the staff wear masks this is a pharmacy during a pandemic, unacceptable!!! read more

They are very rude especially the manager came to the pharmacy at 7:57 to pick up prescription for my very sick son 3 mins before closing and the manager who was taking out the registers 3 mins before closing insisted they were closed I told her I had 3 whole mins she argued with me for the 3 mins and then said oh now it's 8 pm so we are closed... how rude are u that u would actually deny medication when there was time left. read more

Staff is always short, maybe they are fatigued because it seems they don't know simple letters of the alphabet. I constantly have to shout ( I already have high blood pressure and a psychiatric condition so it doesn't help). The checkout machines always have a problem ( thank goodness the staff are always around to help quick). The staff is doing what they can I guess. I blame management and high tier executives for not customers. If you don't fix these problems your gonna go out of business soon and I will take my business elsewhere. read more

So many things are under lock and key. You need an employee if you want to buy deodorant. If you need to pick up a prescription prepare to wait in line for at least 30 minutes. read more

The pharmacists are quick. I have stumbled into this place half delirious from the fever and fill my scripts and pick them up within 30 mintues. They are never rude, the area is always clean, and when i bring my dog they dont get mad. I would say more but most of the time that Im there I am sick as shit and dont really pay attention to anything but "Give me My MEDS!" read more

This cvs is terrible. There is always a long line for pick up. they never have anything that's advertised on sale even if it's the first day of the sale. I'm here picking up a prescription that was placed 3 days ago and I called to confirm 3 prescriptions 3 days ago. I get here and there's only 2 ready and they have no answer as to where the other one is. I didn't want to have to come back for the prescription. read more

I have stood in line for the pharmacy and watch the staff be absolutely abused multiple times by horrible customers. Regardless of this they are consistently kind and professional. There are very nice to me. read more

They consistently do not have my prescription and don't tell me. I know this happens a lot so i make sure to ask over the phone that they have it in stock FOR SURE and the pharmacist (female) says yes. I ask AGAIN and say i show up and they really dont all the time and this time i don't want to do that (only cvs near me and still a walk). She says ill receive a text if they dont have it but they do. Just left cvs....they dont have it in stock lol. Incompetent read more

Not the most convenient location, but I've been going to their pharmacy for years and they have never let me down. You can be the worst customer, but they will still attempt to provide you with great customer service. read more

Getting a prescription filled at the CVS pharmacy in Richmond Hill is a joke. On my birthday, 10/16, I visited my doctor and had my blood pressure medication refilled. That was Wednesday morning. Wednesday evening, I gave the pharmacy a call, just to make certain that it was received. The automated voice answering service said that my prescription is being processed. Fine. Today, two days later, I go there to pick it up. The girl at the pick up counter says she has no record of the script, and tells me go wait in the drop off line. The girl at the drop off window says, yes, we received your script on Wednesday, and we wrote back to the doctor that the medication has been replaced. We (the pharmacy) are awaiting his answer. When is the customer informed? When I told her that I did call, and the automated answer was it was being processed, she said, yes, the system really needs to be improved? REALLY? So here I am, thirty minutes later, in my house, and I think, "What if they have the wrong e-mail address for my doctor?" So I call the pharmacy five times in a row, and five times in a row the phone goes dead. I really should switch to mail order pharmacies. read more

They lock up everything but then don't have any workers to help you when you need help getting the locked products. Also, my theory is that they lock up the name brand stuff and don't help you when you need to get it from the case and they leave their shit cvs brand stuff unlocked so you get so tired of waiting that you buy the cvs brand instead read more

I went into the pharmacy to fill my RX, the pharmacy tech, told me I should be receiving a text from cvs telling me my rx is ready to be picked up. I sat in the parking lot waiting and waiting probably for about 45 minutes. I saw the tech running out the pharmacy along with another tech.. I went into the pharmacy and saw the pharmacy was closed. The tech (African American) apparently never refilled my rx! If she was unable to fill the rx she should have told me so And not waste my time I had a flight to catch. I spoke to the manager. And he told me there's nothing he can do but he would ask what happened to my rx in the morning . read more

Amazing customer service! The manager, Kiran, was sooooooo helpful in getting me the most savings when my coupons and extra bucks weren't working on the register. He was patient and went above and beyond to help me. Very grateful! Thanks Kiran and his cashier, Arbash! You guys are great! king read more

MY go-to pharmacy in the neighborhood.. mostly because there's a huge parking lot and I don't like to waste time looking for street parking. Along with CVS, the complex has a pet store, pizza shop, etc. I always receive great customer service here and the wait time (line size) is never too long. Usually, I can walk in and pick up whatever I need within 10mins. I've never refilled my prescriptions here so I have no comment on the service in that area. After reading several reviews ... it seems as though people expect this place to be some glamorous high-end store that meets all needs and expectations... Hello everyone, welcome to CVS! Get in, get what you need, get out .. read more

I NEED to compliment the pharmacist who administered my flu shot, he's asian (sorry didn't get his name). His hands were so freakin light; I am honestly anxious of flu shots as I've had terrible pokers in the past; my time with him was like 2 mins and I didn't even felt a single pain, the pain level was like lightly pressing your nail against skin, that's it. I even asked him if were done because it was pain free and quick, that's a first! I am just amazed. Thanks to him and the wait time was less than 15 mins for check-in, paperwork and shot. I originally went to CVS Howard beach and wait time was 45 mins for the paperwork! Anyway, thanks to the RPH who administered my shot today... go get your flu shot with this man! Thanks!!! read more

Unfortunately all of their product was out of place. Every time I picked up an item and went to purchase it I found out it was actually a different price than the label it was put over. The staff wasn't able to help me and wouldn't even honor that the product was mislabeled. Their response was I have to check and read the actual price tag and make sure it's the right product for myself. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Kew Gardens, New York

Just my local CVS that helps me out when I am low on toiletries, cleaning supplies, or just need a quick snack from time to time. The people wandering around the store can get under your skin, but if you can get past that, and the fact that the self-check out machines are not the most user friendly if you do not follow directions, then you can get in and out without raising your stress level. This place has everything you need for everyday household goods. They always have sales, the coupon machine is flowing with coupons, and CVS is always emailing me 25% off coupons weekly. Word. read more

This has to be the worst place in the world, they can't find shit nor can they confirm your prescription. The only reason I come here cause my company gets a discount here, but I rather go somewhere pay more and get my prescription. I been here for over 2 hours here these dumb bitches talking about grinding on one another and going to Trinidad to have fun, ahhh bitch can you hurry the fuck up get my meds ready so I can. Y'all can go in the back and have an orgy once I get my shit. read more

Like it. It's kinda isolated , not many people and much more freedom of shopping. Big space . Good sales . read more

Such kind, helpful and welcoming staff here. Not one but three employees greeted me warmly in my 20 minutes here. Looking forward to returning. Thanks for making a run for tissues a pleasure. read more

Since 2005, major improvements. Unfortunately...not to the pharmacy staff, headed by that awful eastern european woman...She is the coldest, most rude person I've every encountered at a pharmacy. The other people in the pharmacy are EXTREMELY helpful, but not that East Euro woman. read more

I just discovered they have a Redbox kiosk, my latest obsession. That's the only reason I would go there.

if i could give this pharmacy a -3 i would , waited 3 days for a prescription of prednisone only to find out they don't carry the 20mg pills, some white coat told me to ask the doctor to change the script to 10mg pills twice a day which i did , went there the very next day and a tech proceeds to tell me they don't have any and need to place the order ( why not place the order when the doctor sends it would make sense right ) for 10mgs , now i'm not a genius nor a pharmacist but it's clear that they don't give a flying you know what about their customers. THIS PLACE SUCKS read more

First of all their address listing here and on CVS online is incorrect! Your Doctor will not be able to transmit a prescription without their correct address......ask me how I know! The address is 85-29 126th Street KEW GARDENS, NY 11415!!! read more

Happy with this CVS because it has a Redbox AND a parking lot! And not too far from my apt...

This CVS is pretty big for the location I was in and they had everything I needed from toilet paper to coca cola. I also grabbed some cough drops and got to speak with the pharmacist who were smiling and ready to help. Great stop and buy! Sign up for the CVS card and save so much. read more

Worst cvs. Always long lines, the store is always messy and dirty. I think the only people that would even rate this place decent are the people that come here from their country and dont speak a damn of english and dirty as hell. Sorry to be so mean. But they def need a new mgmt team. This store is horrific. Aisle are sooooooo messy dirty and items thrown everywhere. Every trip to cvs i already know will always be at least 15 minutes inside because of the wait. There is only 1 cashier all the time and the self check out.... Well half of the people that shop there don't speak english so it takes even longer. This is the only drug store around!!!! Because of this they really need to step it up. I cant say enough BAD things about this place... **** The only good thing is the pharmacy team.. They are amazing!!!!! read more
