Normally go here to fill prescriptions and end up wandering around the store since they have seasonal items that I often buy. I also go there for their photo cards at Christmas time. They have great coupons if you join their membership program. My only complaint is their self service machines. I usually need help when I use them which seems to defeat the purpose of "self service ". read more

Ever since the pharmacy changes their automated system, it's been a nightmare to get a prescription refilled. The recorded message does not offer the option to enter a prescription number, instead the name of the drug needs to be stated. How many times can I say the name of the medication and be told I cannot be helped because the system doesn't recognize the name of the drug I'm saying? Even though the system JUST SAID THE NAME OF THE DRUG?! It's so infuriating, as soon as I can, I'm transferring my prescription to the Costco down the street. read more

As a healthcare provider, I can say the service that the pharmacist, Jessica Vo, provided me was both friendly and extremely professional. Although she knew I was in healthcare, she did not know that I have been a CMO for the US Military and a hiring authority for many different medical and healthcare positions throughout my career. If every pharmacist was a nice and professional as Jessica, patients would have much less to complain about visiting their local pharmacist. I hope the power to be at CVS sees this review. I believe Jessica has all the traits now to be promoted to the next position at CVS, whether that be regional pharmacist or area pharmacist. I can tell that the pharmacy techs enjoy working with her as well. There are too many pharmacists in the CVS stores that look like they are exhausted or are not really happy with their positions. I hope CVS will hire more pharmacists like Jessica and promote pharmacists with traits like Jessica! In addition, I have an Executive MBA with a specialization in Healthcare from a highly ranked UC institution and I hope Jessica never becomes a pharmacist who feels burnt out in healthcare! read more

Not all chain pharmacies are the same. Back when there were more mini and medium chains, even some of the big boys like Sav-on Drugs and Thrifty had some heart. I didn't realize it when I was a little kid fanboying on Sav-on and Thrifty (which we called "Thrifty's," for some reason); but Longs was another drugstore that, despite being a multi-state chain, felt like a mom-and-pop operation. This is a review of the CVS on West Whittier Boulevard in La Habra, but this CVS used to be a Longs, and despite the CVSification that it has undergone--and it's definitely not the same as it was--it has, somehow, managed to retain some of its old charms. It's on the bigger side for Southern California CVS locations. It has a large center aisle helpfully aligned with the front doors, so as you enter, everything health- and hygiene-related is to your left, and all the junk food and gifts and drinks and household items are on your right. The pharmacy is at the back (obviously). The people who work here are universally nice. I'm a frequenter of CVSes large and small, so I know a little bit about dealing with CVS employees who don't want to deal with me, and I've had bad experiences at every single store--every store except for this one. Granted, I've never used the pharmacy, so there's that. They have self checkout, but unlike almost every other CVS location with those job-killing devices, they don't try to force you to use them. This location is actually much farther than the one closest to my parents' house (that one's within a mile), but I always go out of my way to come here, because I'm so sick of dealing with the sad-sack attitudes and annoying pestering of the employees there. And I know it's not totally random and is based on what and how frequently you buy, but this CVS seems to offer the most valuable coupons on its mile-long receipts. If you come around Christmas, they have firewood right near the entrance, and you don't even have to bring it to the register; just tell one of the employees that you're taking firewood on your way out, and they'll ring it up. Plus it's really good firewood, or at least it has been every fall and winter since 2020. I'm still sad that Longs is gone--that all of them are gone--but there is some solace in the smiling faces at this Longs-turned-CVS. read more

I used to love this store and the pharmacy staff. I've developed something like a rash near my eyebrows. After learning what I have, I googled to see if there are any OTC soaps or creams and I was surprised to find that there are. I stopped by and waited to speak with the pharmacist, some tall Asian guy with glasses. He looked at me like I was speaking another language. He'd never heard of my condition and even after I showed him what it is, he just told me to get something from isle 13 on the left.????? DORK! After finding nothing I recognized, I returned to the pharmacy to ask where they have coconut oil. The girls had no idea what I was talking about. They sent me to the front cashier and, again, he didn't have a clue if, or where, it could be. USELESS!! Seriously, Vingh is the only one worth his weight in gold. Customer service has tanked at this store. It looks like Walgreens just got a new customer. read more

Miss Bonnie did that !!!! I was struggling to find a foundation match on my own and I was not about to be that person opening the bottles because ... no. The one I had already expired so I needed a new one , I use the one from L'Oréal Infallible it's SOOOO GOOD love it. Anyways I went to the register and she was willing to help me. I think costumers forget to smile at these cashiers because they go through so much already with other costumers if you know you know.. She did her best trying to match me and the shade she picked out fits perfectly she said she's one of the supervisors here she was very helpful Come to cvs if you want to save money on great drug store makeup products !!!! This CVS is always stocked up never empty. I live near Buena Park and I always make the 15 minute drive here idc read more

CVS Pharmacy - Makeup Goodies - Drugstores Near Me - La Habra, California

This CVS has incredibly rude staff members. I have gone there various times, and often, customer service is pretty bad. I have used their photo services before, and staff has misplaced orders or has treated me as though I was an inconvenience. We have let this slide and just ignored it. Today, my husband tried buying medicine off the shelf, and the woman at the counter was ridiculously rude with him. For whatever reason, the item was showing up on her screen as not an allowable item to sell (perhaps a recall on the item). Her reaction was to yank the item out of his hand and make him feel as though he was trying to steal or was buying illicit drugs. She was rude and condescending as though it was his fault for picking out the item from the shelf. A simple, "sorry, sir, looks like the system won't let me sell this item to you" is a standard response. Not an eye roll, horrible tone, and yanking something out of a customer's hand. We finally have had our last straw with this CVS! Someone needs to do customer service training with staff ASAP! read more

Closed at 7:26pm on a Sunday night, earlier than the stated closing time. Please post the right time at the front door. Thanks

My neighborhood store, I probably frequent this place more than any other business... Not to sound like an alchi, but beer and wine prices are pretty much unbeatable here. I mean like a 12 pack of rolling rocks for $8 cheap. They also throw mad coupons at ya so that u come back. One of the perks of living in the middle of nowhere I suppose B-) Just like anything in La Habra, people r generally laid back here, including mgrs and pharmacists. Cool little place. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Your standard cvs - Drugstores Near Me - La Habra, California

This CVS is horrible. Cashier, employees are horrible. Here with my client and we needed help and no one wanted to help us. The only person that was helpful was the Pharmacist. read more

This CVS location was one that I always avoided after it switched from the beloved Longs Drugs quite a few years ago. It was always so horrible (as my previous review detailed). Over the weekend, I needed to go in for some stuff for my Grandma... although I went there begrudgingly, I was curious to see how it was now that it had been renovated and updated along with the beautiful new shopping center. I entered in and my nose was shocked!! It no longer smelled like a geriatric ward and it was laid out like other CVS stores!! It actually was stocked with items and didn't feel deserted and outdated. I was happily impressed!! The store employees actually were helpful, for the most part, and seemed less zombie-ish. I think one of the ladies stocking the shelves actually smiled at me too! Whoa!! For the store itself, I will definitely not be afraid to come back. It looks beautiful and they did a great job at bringing it up to date and appealing! Nicely done!! The pharmacy, on the other hand, (although most of them have been there for years and are knowledgeable) left me completely annoyed by one of the people working back there. The manner in which I was talked to and her decision to judge what my Grandma's doctor was doing. It is none of her business and it is not her place to tell me her opinion. Even if she questioned it, she needs to shut her trap with her opinions or state them to customers in a polite and less self-righteous way. I left there with my Grandma's prescriptions angry and 100% annoyed. She wasn't even the pharmacist, she was a tech. Either way, she was completely wrong in tone, attitude and content. I will NEVER go to the pharmacy again, unless I'm the only one who can help my Grandma at the time. Shame on you, pharmacy, this girl needs to learn some bedside manners and manners in general! STORE: 5 stars, upgraded. PHARM: 2 stars, still. read more

My pharmacy experience was terrible. Most of my maintenance medication is ordered through CVS Care Mart but they forgot to put my prescription on auto refill so I had to go to my local CVS to get a week supply until my prescription arrived. It was a terrible experience as neither company knew how to handle the situation and was promised by CVS I would get a call once it was handled and I never received a call. I got tired of waiting and had to call CVS Care Mart and I finally canceled my order through them so my local CVS can fill my prescription. The procedure wasn't hard to but somehow they waisted my time all day calling Care Mart to get a resolution. They are the professionals and you would think they should know the proper procedure in this circumstance. read more

I'm very disappointed in the manager Daniel S. I was shopping for a thermometer for my toddler because our old one broke. I found one for a fantastic price. It was behind closed glass and was displayed as 17.95!! I was ecstatic! The sales associate Brandon helped me with my purchase. When he rang me up he informed me that the thermometer was priced incorrectly. It was 49.99 instead of 17.95. I was pretty bummed but since it was BEHIND GLASS, and HAD SEVERAL MORE THERMOMETERS BEHIND THE SAME PRICE. I figured he manager would honor their mistake. Well I was sadly mistaken. Brandon did his best to make it right. I really appreciate his efforts and I am satisfied with Brandon's customer service BUT the manager Daniel S really needs to make sure the associates are stocking their products correctly because this was such a big let down for me. I have been financially hit hard from covid and needing a thermometer for my toddler this was a necessity so I obviously bought it for the extended, not advertised, price of 49.99. Very disappointed read more

Incompetent cashier. Item was priced differently than what it wrang up. I asked her to go look at the tag & then quickly replied, "I won't be able to change it on the register". So in other words she wasn't going to go check the price tag regardless. We will be sure to avoid CVS. read more

This location has excellent service and the staff is incredibly friendly. I have been spending a great deal of time here lately due to my 8 week cough. I love the CVS night time cough syrup. I buy my Medicine then walk over to Northgate Market and eat something from their already made food in the court yard to wash down my cough syrup. read more

CVS Pharmacy - The bomb !! - Drugstores Near Me - La Habra, California

Vinh k is such an amazing lead pharm tech and super kind will come back just because of him !

The lines are usually always long, place seems Under staffed.. when you have to wait for authorization for your medication from The head pharmacist, who's usually taking calls that the other pharmacist can do You're looking anywhere from 30-1 hr wait time. The staff is friendly. read more

I will never use CVS pharmacy again. I brought in my prescription at noon and was told that the dosage didn't exist for my sons antibiotic and that they had to call the dentist (my son had 7 extractions yesterday). I was assured I would get a text when it was ready. At almost 3pm I still had no text. I called and talked to another pharmacist and she said "oh here it is I will call the doctor now and call you back" I waited two more hours and no call back. I called again and was told it was ready. So I drive here and it is now 6pm and I'm told the pharmacist has to mix it and she just went to lunch. I am now waiting another 30 minutes. So my son who has had his teeth extracted is still waiting to take his meds. UNACCEPTABLE read more

I am happy to report that this is one of the nicest CVS stores I've been to in a long time. It's not the biggest one, no, but it's well-stocked, clean, and the clerk/cashier was very friendly and helpful. I wish I got her name. She deserves a raise. Lately I've been annoyed with CVS in general, having been jerked around by pharmacy clerks and the stupid texts that inform me my prescriptions are ready hours AFTER I pick them up, and OVERCHARGED several times in the last couple of months. Maybe it's because of the havoc created by the lockdown? Who knows? But this is a fresh start. Oh, the coupon center works, unlike most of the other ones I've tried to use in Orange County. read more

Compared to the other CVS' I've been to, this pharmacy has great customer service. The pharmacist and the techs are courteous and helpful. They let you know what's going on the phone and do not make false promises. I never shopped there for other things so I'm not sure but this is just the review for their medication pharmacy department only. read more

Great CVS! Nice layout and stocked well. Looks so much more inviting since the whole shopping center was overhauled about 2 years ago.

Terrible pharmacy experience today. I'm diabetic and 38 weeks pregnant, in need of a refill of my insulin, which was called in hours earlier by my doctor. I go to pick it up, then I'm told it will be another half hour for it to be ready. No problem, I tell them I'll be back in a couple hours for it, as I had to go home real quick. When I return a few hours later, the same pharmacist tells me they're out of stock and have been for days. They don't expect to get it for a few more days and I'll have to go elsewhere if I need it now. Why was I not told this hours earlier? Complete disregard for customer service. No apology. No explanation. All I got was a blank stare when I asked her why she said it would be ready in 20 minutes when in fact they had nothing in stock for days. Not the first time I have had issues with the pharmacy at this location. The store is fine but I wouldn't recommend this pharmacy. read more

This is the most frustrating pharmacy visit ever. Kudos to Walter who was the only pharmacist doing anything and trying to hustle. Stormie is a joke, I'm absolutely shocked how someone that clueless can land any kind of job, not to mention as a pharmacy tech. I dropped a prescription off for my dad and was advised it would be 15 minutes. I checked in 30 minutes later and was advised it would be and additional 25 but Stormie assured me that mine was being expedited (psh). In total I waited over an hour for 1 prescription. I will not be returning. read more

Hello, I went into store to exchange a make-up item. (the original CVS did not have the right one. I checked the next day). I had peeled off the item code. I had my receipt from another store. There wasn't another item with the same code for the returned item. Dan the store supervisor was great in helping me out. He called the original CVS that I bought the item from and got the item code. Dan was very helpful. I appreciated his help. I didn't have to drive around to make the exchange. Thank You Dan for all your help read more

They're not terrible but they're not great. More than once I've had to wait an obscene amount of time for a prescription to be filled. I've had one sent the day prior in late afternoon, only to go around noon the following day and be told it still wasn't ready. Really? Another 10 minutes? Uhm, okay....So I wait those 10 minutes....and another 10 minutes.....and I go up and it's still not ready. Seriously? It's fricken La Habra. I get that it's the land of old people but how many fricken prescriptions are you completing on a daily basis that you can't fill one sent nearly 24 hours ago and need another 20+ minutes once the person comes to pick it up in person the next day?! The staff is nice enough about it but man, take it up a notch. read more

This is only for their pharmacy department but these guys are rocket fast. I gave them my prescription with literally chicken scratch from my doctor and they gave me my meds in under two minutes. Mind blown. Usually you twiddle your thumbs for a good fifteen minutes but the pharm techs here are quick. read more

Had to wait a long time for my Rx I will be switching to Walmart super store next refill.

I went to CVS AFTER WORK TODAY to pick up a knee sleeve (which I found on-line this morning) and called this CVS store to confirm that they had it in stock). When I got there, they did not have anymore on the shelf. I asked for assistance and explained to the guy what I was looking for and if they had anymore in stock. He states if they were not on the shelves, then they were out. So I asked him if he can Cal another CVS in the area to see if they had any in stock he automatically told me No he could not. I asked him why not? He said because he didn't have the stock number. I told him again that I did have it w a picture and all the info since I had already called this morning about it and I still have the info on my cell phone. He refused to look at the information and again stated no he will not call any other CVS for me. The customer service there is extremely rude!!! I NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE GOING TO THIS CVS STORE AT ALL THEY ARE RUDE AND NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. I ended up going to Rite-aid across the street and not only did they take me where their knee sleeves are, they showed me several different ones in stock and said if I was not happy with, to bring it back w my receipt. read more

Super quick and incredibly helpful! Will definitely be back for any future prescription need.

Veronica the cashier is rude! I asked her if they sold liquor and she acted like I was bothering her. She rang up my items and I told her the price was wrong. Again she acted like I was bothering her. After she rung me up I went back to the sign to photo it. Then she said oh yeah there's a coupon. With a personality like that she should get a job holding an advertisement sign on the corner. Then she won't have to deal with people!! read more

Nope, never again. Used to love it when it was Long's. Not anymore. Had prescription called in on Saturday from my vet. Called Monday mid afternoon. Well, we didn't fill it because we didn't have any of your information. We will do it now. Went down to pick it up, wrong dosage. Called my vet and asked. Sure enough, they didn't do it right. Had switched my other prescriptions to Rite-aid when they closed at 2:00 p.m. everyday without any notice -- and phone voice mail said they were open until 9:00 p.m. The people working there are extremely incompetent and very slow. Not sure where they shopped their employees from. Place is dirty, old, looks worn out. Don't go there. There are other much nicer pharmacies. I think they have been skating on Long's wonderful reputation and great store. I give them another 6 to 8 months and they are gone unless corporate holds them up. read more

Nice clean store with friendly staff. The pharmacy is always slow with a long line. No where to sit while you wait online. Prices are high.

If there was a big fat 0 (zero) I would be putting that. These people are uneducated and ignorant. I had to do their job for them and then they are rude and nasty to me. How about a thank you I will be changing my pharmacy after this ordeal they have put me thru..... All they can say is we don't know we just bill the insurance and they tell us bullshit. They do not go the extra mile for their customers at all they expect you to do their job. read more

The pharmacy has gone down hill since they made the switch, worst wait time for any pharmacy ever. Seems like every couple months I having issues with prescriptions that doctor sends over. Stopped in Friday evening at 6pm, prescription in hand, husband in the car returning from emergency shoulder surgery. Was told they wouldn't have time to fill prescription, as there were to many ahead of me, I was the only one there. She said others were in the system and pharmacist had to do those by the end of shift which was almost 2 hours away. I was told go somewhere else if I really needed it. Believe me I will, and I'll take all my business elsewhere. Been going there for over 20 yes back when it was Long Drugs. Not sure what's going on but it's not good... read more

Worst customer service ever! Always a long wait. Three months in a row there service said my order was ready but when I got there it wasn't even filled. This month they actually called (automated) but the only problem was I wasn't suppose to get a refill on my meds! Stay away! Go to RiteAid! read more

It looks like there cutting everyone's hours, new people from other stores are there and really lack and customer service skills. We were there today, 8 people in line to pick up, with 1 person at the cash register, 4 people to drop off and were all very frustrated. Sounds like new management wasn't such a good idea! read more

CVS pharmacy meets the previous reviews. My doctor faxed my script over a week for a simple muscle relaxer. I got the call yesterday that it was filled. In the meantime, I had to go to a local wherehouse pharmacy to get filled in fifteen minutes. read more

Employees are always so kind and welcoming. Always go to this CVS. I like that fact that you can scan your membership card and it print out your coupons right in front of you. Awesome! Very clean and well organized. read more

They called and told me a proscription was ready and when I went to pick it up they said I have to wait six more days. They were being rude about it even though they told me that it was ready. read more

The pharmacy technicians and pharmacists here are amazing. They're constantly working and dealing with rude customers, I wonder how they keep a smile on their face. If I've ever had any problems regarding my prescription, billing or refills, they help me to the best of their ability. I don't think people truly understand how busy a pharmacy can get and how stressful it can be to work for demanding customers who all want their prescriptions at the very instant they show up. The neat thing about this pharmacy is that they will send you text alerts when your prescription is filled. I can imagine it gets very frustrating working with whiny customers but everytime, and i genuinely mean everytime, I'm there they are always calm and helpful. Maybe if the other customers showed a little respect they would get respect back, but I digress. Generally, they ask if you want to stay in the store and wait for it to be filled or if you'll be back later. if you choose the latter and opt in for text message updates you will get a text notifying you when you're prescription has been filled. Overall the pharmacists and technicians are respectful, competent, professional, educated and friendly even though they are always probably stressed and tired. read more
