My mom went in to get a pneumonia shot and she was given a flu shot. She had already received a flu shot 5 days prior.

Unfortunately poorly managed, which is such a huge bummer for the location being La Jolla. I know they can do better, best of luck!

Love the location but the pharmacy is unbelievably slow. Make sure to call ahead (at least 1 Hr) and remind them to fill your Rx.

Gone are the headaches, dust-filled air, dump trucks then cement trucks littering La Jolla Blvd and what is left is miraculous.

I had a really upsetting and uncomfortable experience at this Walgreens. I went in to purchase a…read more10-pack of insulin syringes -- something Walgreens clearly states on their own website is allowed in California without a prescription, as long as you're purchasing 30 or fewer. I was simply picking them up for a family member. When I got to the staff at the pharmacy register, I greeted them and then stated if I can purchase a bag of insulin syringes for my family member. I was looked up and down by the employee, who then walked over to the pharmacist. He came back and told me they couldn't sell the syringes to me unless I had that family member's prescription. I wasn't there to debate policies -- I was doing a favor for a diabetic family member and felt completely judged and dismissed in the process. Feeling embarrassed and confused, I checked Walgreens' website outside, and sure enough -- it says in plain English that in California, syringes can be sold over the counter without a prescription, up to 30 units. I went back in and spoke to a manager, showed them the policy, and all they could do was point to the small print that says it's "ultimately up to the pharmacist's discretion." Here's the bigger issue: this location is surrounded by a large homeless population, and I understand the concern about selling syringes to individuals struggling with addiction. But even denying clean needles to addicts does more harm than good. A policy like this, when enforced without context or compassion, isn't protective -- it's dangerous. This pharmacist has either deprived a diabetic of life-saving medical supplies, or pushed a desperate addict closer to sharing a potentially disease-infected syringe just to survive another day. Either way, it's a failure in basic public health ethics. Denial doesn't stop drug use -- it just makes it riskier and more inhumane. If Walgreens wants to empower its pharmacists to make case-by-case decisions, fine -- but don't advertise clear and accessible over-the-counter availability if the actual in-store experience is entirely different. This experience was humiliating, harmful, and disappointing.

The store could be open for the posted hours. This is not at all convenient when I drove 20 min at…read more3:30 am. 24/7?

It feels a bit odd to review a large drug store chain like CVS and also feel a bit like I am…read moreventing after a bad experience, but I have been coming to this particular location for many years, and as the store seems to be on a decline. Also, I have filled out the customer satisfaction survey many times with constructive criticism, but things only continue to go downhill. I have been a big fan of the CVS chain in the past. I could fulfill a lot of my needed items in a quick trip. Additionally, I found that I really liked a lot of the seasonal, holiday and specialty decorations. This particular store is a bit smaller and has always hadfewer items than most. However, they still used to have a good deal of summer and holiday items, as well as some cute novelty beauty items that I enjoyed buying for gifts. However, the store is often not well stocked. I found a couple of times that I couldn't find glue, or they were out of mailing supplies. A while back, they stopped having shopping baskets, which is a huge pain, as small makeup items fall right through the cart. Yesterday, I walked in to find out that now they don't even provide baskets or carts. Seriously, I'm supposed to carry everything in my two hands while I'm shopping? Also, they added the automatic checking stations and reduced staff. However, in the past it made it hard to have someone unlock batteries or to purchase alcohol, as you cannot do that at the automatic checking station. Now, almost all of the personal care items in the entire store are locked away, which is the norm for the area due to shoplifting. Sadly, makes it impossible to shop. Yesterday, a nice gentleman came quickly to unlock the toothpaste for me. However, as he was the only one at the register, he became very busy when I needed other beauty items unlocked after that. Also, I buy a lot of greeting cards, which cannot be purchased at the automatic checking machines. Because they ares so light, they don't register that you have already placed the item on the table. I have yet to be able to complete a purchase of a greeting card at an automatic station. Yesterday was an absolute disaster and what should've taken me about 5 minutes took about 25. I was miserable and I felt awful for the poor employee who was keeping his cool and trying his best to deal with all of the customers who were just as miserable. The only reason for two stars instead of one, is because the employee was dong his best and definitely deserves a raise. This place is a total mess.
