The good thing is 197 Boston trnpk is 24 hour service. However, I've experienced multiple screw up with my medications and getting scrips filled in a timely manner. The women in the front of the store have been very helpful though on a good note! read more

CVS Pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Shrewsbury, Massachusetts

I don't call to speak to a robot. If I'm calling the pharmacy about my medications, I expect to be speaking to a human being. How is this AI considered intelligent when it told me that my date of birth is not associated with an account? Most types of AI do not belong in the medical field, especially when it replaces something that just shouldn't be done by a robot. read more

Avoid this store at all cost. Rude, mean, and angry employees run this store. There's like one kind person. We used to buy household items here a lot, but we had a terrible experience last week with one of the new employees and will never return. There's a good chance this is the worst CVS in the state. If you can find another store near you, trust me, absolutely any other one will be a huge step up. read more

poor service. lots of cheating staff in the back room, vaccinations left on counters, no response by management for customer service complaints. sweep everything under the rug, read more

As Pharmacy is very convenient since it's open 24 hours, however, pharmacy is closed one hour every day. It's very busy because it's near a local hospital and somewhat understaffed. I stood in line for 10 minutes to drop off a prescription only to be told not my table since it was the pick up window and was told to go to the drop off window. I went to the drop off window, and it's completely blocked off. They probably don't have it open because they don't have enough people to Staff it. I had to go back into line and wait again to speak to the blonde woman again in the prescription drop for her to tell me now to go to a consultation window instead. I asked her why she could've at least told me that the first time, so I didn't have to wait another 10 minutes in line again. She just shrugged her shoulders. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Cvs prescription counter - Drugstores Near Me - Shrewsbury, Massachusetts

I went there to take photos for my passport. The photos had a blue background and were not usable. I then asked for a refund, and their staff charged me again before giving me a refund. So, I had to go there for a third time. Conclusion: The staff is not well trained, and the service is poor. Avoid this place. read more

1. Does not pick up pharmacy phone 2. Prescription fill time is very slow 3. Line to pickup prescription is very long 4. App is not user friendly and does not provide enough information 5. A certain pharmacist is rude 6. I needed an emergency prescription. Doctor sent over 24 hours ago and still not even "in process" 7. Waited on hold for over 1 hour and nobody picked up 8. Hold music is awful! read more

All the pharmacy staff I met at this cvs is rude and has no will to help. I would not recommend to anyone. Unfortunately it is one of the only 24 hours pharmacies around so they know we need them, and thereafter they make nothing to change. read more

Transfers prescriptions without checking if the other cvs pharmacy locations has in stock

SOS, different day. Calling or ordering ahead is a waste of time. Not ready, again. Typical. NOW I'm told there is a problem with insurance because some CVS moron entered my child as the primary cardholder instead of a dependent. I just gave them the new insurance card 10 minutes ago, so I can only assume that the person telling me "someone" entered it wrong is the same idiot just covering her ass. Now I have to sit for hours hoping that someone working an IT help desk somewhere on a Saturday afternoon can "fix the glitch." Is there another 24-hour pharmacy in Shrewsbury? I really need to switch. read more

CVS Pharmacy - 15+ people in line today, one register open. Typical. - Drugstores Near Me - Shrewsbury, Massachusetts

This cvs pharmacy never answer their phone, I am waiting on a prescription going on 5 plus hours - they close the pharmacy for a half hour every day so everyone can go to lunch together. They told me it would take 30 minutes and that was 3 hours ago. When I called cvs corporate to give feedback they hung up on me and then when I called back they said 6 min wait. That was 10 minutes ago. This is the worst customer service and in healthcare it's dangerous. I will be reporting them to the state board. read more

Rama is one of the best pharmacist, she went above and beyond to help me out. She has such a nice heart and spreads the positive energy to the people around her. She has a beautiful heart and very valued asset for the company. You won't find such kind hearted people now a days. read more

The costumer service in this store is terrible. One of the workers rudely kicked us out with no reason to why other than falsely made up reasons about other costumer complaints (considering there were no other costumers in the store I have reason to believe it was false) then when I called up the store for complaints, the call was forwarded to the manager who never picked up. Terrible costumer service. read more

Ouch. This will be our last trip to this particular CVS. The pharmacist I saw was named Kevin, and when I asked for his last name, everyone was ignorant. I had a paper with instructions from urgent care, and it sure looked like a prescription (Directions, signatures, the works), but Kevin made sure to be condescending and yell at me during our conversation. I love having tears in my eyes at the pharmacy. On a good point, while I was talking to a colleague, and he approached me. I told him not to talk to me because he treated me like garbage. It's the small victories. Maybe I will get my prescription tomorrow. read more

Can't say I've ever had a problem with the pharmacy. I actually praise them for their hard work seeing as the place is over the top busy everyday. I do have to say the staff at the front should be trained better. I ordered a canvas picture online and when I picked it up she wouldn't let me have it until she saw the money taken out of my bank account. If she knew her job she would know that you can't even order these without paying first. Way to make a customer feel embarrassed in front of a growing line of other customers who were getting impatient. If she were nicer to begin with I wouldn't have written this review. read more

Holy crap avoid the drive through at all costs. Literally takes 10-15 minutes per car. I wish I was exaggerating. Is some NOT working the drive through? read more

Do not get your prescriptions here. The pharmacy and pharmacist is completely unhelpful. They had first stated that my preemie son's was not covered by insurance when it has been covered previously and couldn't explain why. Then I called my doctor and my insurance company, during when I get a call from the pharmacist that it has been filled. I asked what has changed or what was the problem to begin with. They stated IDK or think someone had the wrong ID#. No apology and just hung on me. This is not my first problem with them either. They never had my prescriptions and say they do. Refill meds for me that I no longer need because they realized my insurance covers everything. Rude as F. read more

I waited on the phone for 45 MINUTES & called back & waited another 10 minutes! I could have driven to the store myself in the amount of time I waited AND NO ONE PICKED UP! If you are going to ignore the phone don't bother posting a number! If you ever need anything don't try to get help here. read more

I wish i could give this Pharmacy 0 stars. Horrible Horrible service. I have always had Walgreens and wish i could go back. The Pharmacists are terrible, no manners! The techs are at least pleasant but very lousy at their job. There is always an issue with prescriptions here. At one point i had to wait 1.5 hours to pick up prescription for my sick child because they couldn't find it in their system. I had to personally call the insurance because they couldn't do jack. Turns out the tech wasn't entering his name correctly (really?!?). Being a Dietitian it pains me to see how healthcare is suffering when it comes to this Pharmacy. read more

I hate writing this review during the pandemic and won't comment on customer service for that reason. I understand these employees are frontline workers and deserve that recognition. However this is THE WORST pharmacy ever. Prescriptions are never ready when they say they are, meds are constantly out of stock, and whatever tech systems are in place for reminders/refills don't work - or at least don't match up with what employees say. No lie, I have not had a straight forward pick up in over 2 years. There has always been an issue. Don't let the ease and convenience of the 24/hr, and drive through sway you. SWITCH PHARMACIES NOW and save yourself the trouble. read more

Please keep in mind that this is a review after 6 months of toleration. By far the worst pharmacy I've ever been to. It's embarrassing to the CVS brand to allow so many employees under the same roof give the impression they all hate their jobs so much that it shows to every customer walking in. (1) When we show up to pick up a prescription, half of the supplies are out of order, even though the entire prescription is said to be complete and ready for pick-up. (2) Customers wonder around the store looking to speak to an employee while there's at least one outside having a smoke. (3) The 2nd shift employees seem to hate their jobs the most because they are the least helpful and more dismissive. Going back to Walgreens because it's the closest alternative, but I know there are other CVS pharmacies further out with better service. Not all pharmacies are created equal, thank goodness. read more

This is hands down the best CVS pharmacy I have ever witnessed in person. If I could give it 6 stars I would. Everyone seemed super nice and caring about me and my 8 kids. They even gave me a discount when they didn't need to. 10/10 would rate 5 stars again. Great work!!!! read more

I just tried to order from DoorDash and it took such a long time. I almost never had this problem before with my orders. It was almost time to deliver but then it got pushed back to confirming my order and I just canceled it cause I don't wanna waste my time waiting for an hour for a small thing when it's 3 minutes away. Really disappointed with this. read more

CVS says online that you cannot return the prescription drugs ordered online due to legal reasons but this place does not even accept the prescription drugs returns which are not ordered online, the healthcare system here is even worse than those of 3rd world countries. For antibiotic you hand in the prescription and then wait 15 minute to an hour for your medicine, try to buy an antibiotic in a 3rd world country you will get the same brand medicine at a fraction of price and cost and in less then 30 seconds guaranteed. So CVS and all other pharmacies are a complete failure. Other than that there staff never seems to understand any question. read more

This particular CVS is God awful. Never enough cashiers and always busy. If you need a prescription filled don't come here. Dropped off 2 scripts at 1 and asked to pick up at 4. It's now 4:22 and I am still sitting here waiting for them to fill them. Good thing it's not life or death! Walgreens 100 feet away is much better. read more

Never again will I use this pharmacy. I have a sick screaming baby and am told I need to wait 20 plus minutes although my doctor sent in the prescriptions over two hours prior? How is it not ready when she faxed them over two hours ago? I'll find somewhere else. read more

Saturday night. 8:20 PM. I called the pharmacy and stayed on the phone waiting for 10 full minutes. The same music they have had for the past 10+ years played with the same static. The melodic announcers voice said "all of our customer representatives are busy helping other customers. stay on the line and someone will be with you momentarily." I finally hung up. read more

This place is awful. They mess up prescriptions, make you wait forever and are very poorly run. My young daughter was in urgent care tonight and prescribed medication. I purposely waited 2 hours to make sure it would be filled when I went there. Of course it was not ready!!! They said they could expedite it for me!!! Uhh. Ok, apparently 2 hours isn't long enough. The only good thing about this place is that it's open 24 hours! read more

Extremely rude. The lady lied to me. My Dr sent my script for antibiotics there but I needed a different cvs. I called 3x over 2 days waited on hold as long as I could and finally on day 2 this lady answered and said she can't send it to the other cvs and they need to take care of it. I asked and she confirmed that she 100% can not fax my script to the other cvs. That's a lie she was just being lazy. I work in a doctors office and deal with scripts and pharmacies all day long. We are supposed to help our patients you cant be lazy and take shortcuts in the medical field. For this reason I will avoid going there ever again. This one lady ruined it for me. read more

Slow and always there is a problem with prescriptions. Always always problems here at the pharmacy! But I would give it a four star for the store side they are night and day compared to the pharmacy. read more

I normally don't fill my prescriptions at CVS because of their poor customer service and price gouging. Tonight unfortunately my daughter needed a prescription filled for strep. I went to the CVS 24 hour pharmacy in Shrewsbury, MA. It took over 2 hours to have a simple prescription filled. There were customers cursing and fighting, absolutely disgusting. The same prescription that I had filled at Wegmans pharmacy the week before for my son was $0, zero dollars. However that same prescription, Amoxicillan which costs pennies to make, was $10.00 at CVS. CVS - you are a shining example of CORPORATE GREED! How is it possible that a little pharmacy does not charge for a simple generic drug that costs pennies any you gouge your customers? Tonight's experience, is a perfect example of why I will do everything in my power to NEVER EVER DO BUSINESS WITH CVS. read more

Most of the pharmacy workers are great, but seriously Kevin is an enormous liability. He has literally been sending me away for years after the doctor has written and sent in a prescription because he refused to merge the two files created by my house move, insisting that it was my job to contact corporate and make them do it. Not knowing that was even the reason why my prescriptions were seemingly not coming through for years (even after calling the doctors to confirm they had been sent!), I went through hell under the stress --- and being gaslighted over it when he said there was no prescription to begin with didn't help. He would aggressively and angrily even shout at other pharmacists that I couldn't get a new prescription because he hadn't filled it before (how's that for logic!). This incompetent man does not just take unprofessionalism to a level you never before thought possible, but I am genuinely convinced that he is a literal sadist. In my case it was a mild skin infection, but if he ever intentionally denies somebody with a serious life-threatening disease their medication the company is guaranteed to lose the law suit. The fact that his job remains even after massive amounts of similar complaints and no attempt by him to make amends means that no matter how professional the other staff may be, the CVS itself is not doing its due diligence. read more

This CVS is great because its 24 hours! One stop shopping-very convenient.

need a better system to pick up prescriptions. 10 people in line, pharmacist calls your name after you've already waited in line once, now you can wait in the line again. i didn't because i'm impatient, had already waited an hour, and had 2 sick kids at home (10pm), but that wasn't very well received by the folks in line. EDIT - THIS HAS IMPROVED GREATLY, THANK YOU CVS read more

By far the WORST CVS location. The help is clueless, the manager is miserable and be prepared to wait in line for at least 20 minutes even if there is only one person in front of you. read more

The parking lot is always a mess and today I tried out their curbside pickup that they're now offering (but shouldn't) which lets you make your purchase online and when you get to the store, all you have to do is park and send them a text that says "here" and they'll bring your bag out to the car. They state that this process takes an estimate of an hour and that they would text me when it was ready. I got a confirmation text and then another one an hour later telling me that my order was still in the process of getting put together. Okay, fine, not the biggest deal, but then, after an additional hour, I called the store and to figure what the status of my order was and the employee tells me that they haven't gotten any orders then checks her system and says "oh, now it's coming through". She then lists 2 out of the 3 items incorrectly, asks me my name 3 different times and says that she just needs to get the stuff together and that it would be ready soon. No apology and no acknowledgement that something or someone messed up. If I wouldn't have called, I'd still be waiting for my order because they don't know how to properly work this system. My suggestion would be to just avoid this CVS and especially the curbside pickup option. read more

I have to echo the previous reviews about wasted time spent at the pharmacy waiting for prescriptions. I have previously called in my prescription renewals on many occasions to find that they are not ready when the robot says they will be. I complained about this to a pharmacist and was told that the staff, too, has complained about the work overload to the "head office" to no avail. Most recently, I converted to receiving my drugs via mail order (another story entirely) from CVS/CareMark. Apparently the pharmacy was not informed of this by CVS/CareMark so I received a robocall from the pharmacy stating my drugs were ready for pickup. I called the pharmacy and told them that I was now receiving my drugs via CVS/CareMark and did not need to pick them up anymore at the pharmacy. This action resulted in the pharmacy canceling my drugs from CVS/CareMark but still charging my credit card as if I had purchased them on March 5th from the pharmacy! I went thru all sorts of machinations with CVS/CareMark (they needed another doctor authorization before I could be re-instated) before that problem was solved. For what it is worth, I have transferred all of my non mail order business to Walgreens. Frank read more

Horrible customer service. Today was the second time they refused to accept their own coupon claiming that it was issued to a different card. When I called a manager, she refused to do anything other than to give me their corporate #, when I asked for her name, she even refused to serve me claiming that I threatened her. I am literally speechless! read more
