I always pick a CVS pharmacy in a Target as my pharmacy because I have a 6 year old and it allows…read moreus to kill time while waiting for prescriptions, plus most Targets have a starbucks to grab some caffeine too. The CVS pharmacy is small, as most in Target are. It's closed 30 min for lunch a day, but I forget what time that is. I think it's like 1 or 1:30, so not a traditional 12pm. Just a heads up! The service is kind. Understandably, they seem a bit slow but I think every pharmacy is short staffed right now? Idk. The CVS Pharmacy is always near the vitamin aisles. I miss the bigger CVS pharmacies that offer flu shots etc. I wouldn't try to get any flu shots or vaccines here, only because it's a long line and most folks are after their medicines and then want to bounce. However, if they have more staff, or promote the space where that can be done, maybe!

This is a general CVS pharmacy complaint and not an issue with this site. I'm new to the CVS…read morepharmacy and I'm finding it to be a scam. One prescription filled and now I'm getting texts about refills when I'm not due for a refill. The first text asks if I want the pharmacy to message my doctor as I have no refills open. I text back NO since I don't need a refill. The next day I get a text that my prescription is ready for pickup. This happened multiple times. The last time I received the text, I texted back to stop harassing me. That their refill process is abusive and it finally stopped. I filed a complaint with CVS. They are pill pushers

My dogs' vet office communicated my dog's antibiotic would be ready for pickup same day but to call Brava first. I called and was displeased with someone who told me they have certain pick-up times and that it was too late for same day pick-ups, in addition the medication needed to be processed and also they had to figure out the cost of it, which minutes later she found out and charged me for it. Due to her telling me I could not pick up the antibiotic because their pick-up times was over (after 1 PM) I made plans to take my niece to her soccer practice. While at practice at 5 PM a man from Brava calls and informs me the medication is ready for pick-up. They close at 6 PM, there was no possible way I could have made it in time from Berkeley to Novato, at the peak of traffic on a Wednesday. I probably wouldn't have cared as much for a random medication but an antibiotic, in my opinion, is a stat.

They have an enormously frustrating AI…read morephone attendant that, after about 4 mins of incredible incompetence, finally connects you to a pharmacy Voice Mail that apparently is not monitored. They do not call back in a timely fashion. If you have emergent prescriptions, DO NOT SEND THEM HERE. So I advise you to do one of two things: 1.) Don't send your prescription to this pharmacy. 2.) Drive over there, wait in incredibly long lines, and experience the same frustration in person. I highly recommend the Walgreens Pharmacy in San Rafael instead. The pharmacists are available via phone and the line is always small or reasonable. Once again that's the Walgreens on 830 3rd St. in San Rafael.

The long lines, the wasted trips because they tell you your medication is ready but when you go to pick it up "it's not on the shelf even though our system said it was" (happened twice), the computer system that goes down with "no ETA" when it will be fixed, the irritating phone tree and the half hour plus waits on hold before hanging up out of sheer frustration. Medications are too important to be this unreliable! Some of their people are ok. I feel sorry for them all. Because if CVS treats their longtime (30+ yrs) customers like this, I can't imagine how they treat their employees. Just a horrible place to do business with. I'm done.

When I talked to my doctor they said they had a year's worth of refills and didn't understand why they wouldn't give me my prescription. Do NOT go here to pick up prescriptions because they will make it a huge hassle. Very disappointed because for the last 10 years this has not been a problem. I'm not sure if the pharmacist doesn't know how to do their job or if they're genuinely just trying to give you a hard time.

They carry good grass fed and finished beef, ( the way you can tell is by the coloring, purple and the leanest meat you can get). There is a technique in cooking grass fed meat look on YouTube! Anyway, Charley, is my favorite pharmacist because he is a gentleman and he is straight with you about your medication if they have it or not, or if they have to order it and how long it might take! I like that because it gives me options about maybe trying another pharmacy if I have to wait a long time! A lot of pharmacists are not so straight with customers and it can screw up their medication plans for the month, especially if you need a ride to the pharmacy! Try Safeway pharmacy if you are having a rough time in lower Marin. They also have a Quest, blood draw lab right in the grocery by the pharmacy! It's great!
