Clearly, it's hard times in the pharmacy business, as well as other retail businesses subject to excessing shoplifting. Dear Hubby and I are not from the area, but we were staying nearby and needed to pop in for a few things that I'd forgotten. One was a travel sized can of hair spray. Not only were the options limited (and crazy expensive!), but they were also locked up, so I needed to find an employee with the keys to provide access. That experience was relatively painless to accomplish, but it sure was a wake up call as to what goes on in shopping for such a simple item these days. The store looked mostly cold and intimidating, versus warm and inviting. I used to enjoy shopping at CVS. Now it feels like something that's a grit your teeth and get through it kind of experience. Sad!

Decent CVS located in The Village shopping center. Small parking lot, but inside the store has decent size and is very clean. There is another CVS right across the street in the San Leandro Plaza, but this one is newer. Decent store!!

1550-E14th St? Oakland or San Leandro? It's CVS in The Dro!

Lazy ass UPS delivery could have dropped off my Amazon package in the lobby. No. Left me a scribbled message to pick up 1550 E14 St xxx? I had to call UPS to verify the location. It is CVS. Sure enough, the UPS packaged are stored behind the cash registers. Show ID and it's delivered!

I could go to any other CVS in my location near my neighborhood but for some reason they don't fill my prescriptions from so in doctors I go to. So I drove all the way from W. Oakland to San Leandro. I do prefer this CVS and Pharmacy however because it is always organized and quiet. It's always empty too, I don't know if that's a good thing or not but I prefer shopping with out a ton of people in my way. The CVS is pretty well known because if it's popular location, and even though the store is always empty, the parking lot is always full. You have to go like a merry go out before you find a spot. I think the neighbors doors take up most of the parking. They do have a drive-through pharmacy but it seems like their pharmacy is always slow. The people are more concerned making the prescriptions then serving the guest. You always have to wait a second before being served. They are always professional just very slow. Please be advised... Updated: since Covid 19 Cvs stores are only allowing customers in with Mask or face coverings for concern Of guest service and customers.

I went to pick it up on Wednesday, only to be told it wasn't ready yet. When I explained that I had already called it in on Sunday, the employee initially said she didn't see anything in the system and told me to come back the next day. After I reminded her again that I had called in, she suddenly "found" it and told me to come back in 2 hours and that I would receive a text message when it was ready. I never received the text message they promised. I returned on Friday, and once again they couldn't locate my prescription. After more searching, they finally found it -- but they also tried to give me someone else's order at the same time. I had to explain that I only had one prescription and asked them to verify it using my phone number, not just my last name. The entire experience was very unprofessional, disorganized, and frustrating. On top of that, the drive-thru wait was over 20 minutes. For something as important as prescriptions, accuracy and communication should be a priority. This pharmacy seriously needs to improve its customer service and organization.

This is for the rite aid on MacArthur in Oakland. They're one of the ones that did not get shut…read moredown, and that makes them busier, and especially the pharmacy as customers from other stores that closed migrated here. I usually go at night, but it seems in the day they have an ice cream shop inside. They were very low in non-chocolate candy stock yesterday, but they have wines and liquors and there was a sale on Barefoot (I love their Riesling and their peach wine so I'm glad they stock them!). They have 5-6 aisles of wines, spirits/mixers and beer, which is pretty impressive for a drug store. They also do household items well, so I can often run here in between grocery store runs and get lots of essentials at fair prices. The pharmacy. People are nice. Staff isn't treated well imho, they don't have relief staff for breaks or extra pharmacists helping. I know this is a national trend to overwork and maximize profits at pharmacists expense, (other drug stores had walk outs, too), but there used to be only pharmacists staffed behind the wall at pharmacies, now that they have pharmacy techs they run the pharmacists ragged and the pharmacy SHUTS DOWN for lunch and breaks! Part of the reason I shop late. If you're coming in during the day, call to make sure of their lunch time so you don't end up waiting or having to come back. They are out of stock a lot, and not just ADD/ADHD meds, there have been prescriptions maybe not popular but certainly not rare that I've had to wait days for, and other pharmacies always had on hand- I guess the alcohol aisles took space from somewhere. They do text me when it's in, but like with the ADD meds, if there's demand for it and you don't go right in they'll text you that it's in but then sell them to someone else before you get there, so don't wait a day or two. I come here bc it's close to my house and they have a good selection. It's a high crime area. It seems safe -ish to me, I go after dark and so far no problems in the parking lot or store, but they do not have security here that I've seen, so keep your head up and be aware of your surroundings, and don't leave packages in the car.

Well, Rite Aid, it's been fun.

Apparently this huge property will now be an empty store front. We can only hope that a reputable company will see value in this great location...just make sure you have professional security, as the thieves will ransack the place otherwise, as they did with Rite Aid. Best of luck to the friendly employees as they look for new jobs.

I had a very frustrating experience with the phone service at this pharmacy on March 11…read more Around 1:50 PM, I called because I needed to speak with a Mandarin-speaking female staff member I had previously discussed a medication question with. A male employee named Amo answered the phone. I politely asked if he could ask her to return my call and even offered to leave my phone number. Instead of answering my request, he repeatedly told me to call back in 30 minutes. At 3:23 PM I called again and the same employee answered. I asked again if the Mandarin-speaking staff member could speak with me. I stayed on the line waiting for her. After waiting for 27 minutes with no response, I drove to the pharmacy myself. When I arrived, the Mandarin-speaking staff member finally picked up the phone and told me that the employee had just told her about my call. This means my call had been left waiting the entire time without notifying her. I understand pharmacies can be busy, but basic communication with customers is important. If the staff member was unavailable, he could have simply told me honestly or asked her to briefly explain the situation. Leaving a customer waiting on the phone for almost 30 minutes without any explanation is very disrespectful. What made the experience worse was the dismissive and impatient attitude from the employee. As a Mandarin-speaking customer, this interaction made me feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. I hope management reviews this situation and improves staff training in customer service and communication.
