This CVS's main draw is that it is in close proximity to the Naugles on Beach Boulevard in Stanton. There are no natural, supernatural, or unnatural reasons you'd need a CVS before or after visiting Naugles; but there may be a preternatural reason. (I'm just not willing to go out on that limb.) It's about average size for a CVS, but it feels huge. That's because the aisles are spaced particularly far apart. There's also a lot of dead space, which is normally nice in stores but which always feels sad and depressing in drugstores. Their food selection isn't great. Their cereal has the highest prices I've ever seen for cereal outside of Whole Paycheck. This should be a two-star review, but in planning to buy postage stamps in order not to use self-checkout (and because I needed them), I came across a very friendly and helpful employee. That one three-minute interaction brought the entire operation up one whole star. I wasn't happy about the stamp design I got, but when you're buying stamps at corporate drugstores in order to avoid using self-checkout, you've got to expect to get the most boring flag stamps possible. Not technically boring, but flagglily proclaiming FREEDOM like a System of a Down song. read more

Stopped by to get some medicine and sport aids for my kid & his friends. They have their own parking which is great, just another typical CVS store, nothing special. They got all the stuffs but not well organized. Just a few staff here and there, mostly you're on your own to find the stuff you're looking for. The staff seem just not that happy to be here but once in a while you will fine one that can be friendly and helpful. Glad that I knew where the stuffs I'm looking for are. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Outside - Drugstores Near Me - Stanton, California

Would give zero stars If I could. BEWARE OF THIS SPECIFIC CVS LOCATION!! The pharmacist, Terene, Will deny your refills based on her personal beliefs and opinions. She will ask for personal medical records, interrogate you about your medical experience and the reason you need your meds. She has actively lied about not receiving documentation from the doctors. Pharmacist Terene argued against the doctors script, and wrote on my script that I need to stop taking it. I've been on this controlled substance for 6 years. My medication gives me a better quality of life. I don't know why she wanted to deny me of getting a medication that allows me to function. Pharmacists and the techs back there all look miserable and like they hate their job. Pretty rude staff overall. I wouldn't wish this treatment on anyone by a pharmacy. read more

CVS Pharmacy - Pharmacist Terene. - Drugstores Near Me - Stanton, California

BEWARE!!! This location sells giftcards that end up having zero balance. They need to put all Gift Cards behind the counter, I purchased a Home Depot gift card and by the time my recipient went to use it, it was zero! Now I have to go through the nightmare with the State of California, Home Depot Corporate and the bank. I think all stores need to just put it all behind the counter... This is ridiculous already. read more

Prescriptions are never ready on time causing you to run out of your medication every month. The pharmacy never calls or texts you to let you know prescription status even though you've signed up for text five times. If you want anything done you always have to go to the store to speak with a pharmacist; otherwise nothing gets accomplished. In 30 years of getting prescriptions, I have never experienced such poor service. I finally transferred my prescriptions to another pharmacy and no longer have any issues. read more

They were accurate and and fast with my prescription they got in touch with my doctors right away. They followed all the rules at the doctors request and when I came to the drive up, they waited on me very efficiently and answered all my questions.. my medical provider will only deal with the CVS pharmacies because they're accurate and care about their patients and customers read more

This location is located in a high traffic area so I notice that homeless tend to walk in the store. They don't have security so the employee has to follow the homeless around the store telling them to leave. As a result, there's a lack of employees available at the front register. It just feels uncomfortable coming to this location and it makes me want to buy my items quickly to leave. read more

I just want to thank the pharmacy here for being rude to me. I used this pharmacy for a long time (I was stuck because I owned shares in the company's stock). There was a shortage of meds during covid. I am a very patient person. After 2 weeks of calling and no meds I went in and waited in line. A guy in front of me started getting loud, complaining his meds were 2 days late. They caved and miraculously filled his prescription (they had it and lied to me). I was not happy. I left. Transferred to another place and Sold all my shares. I checked the stock price the other day. They saved me $27k by being rude I just wanted to come here and thank the Stanton CVS 5 's read more

Very slow, long wait, the app doesn't tell you if your prescriptions available. Incorrect information about past prescriptions. Just a total mess. I'm going to transfer my prescriptions somewhere else read more

Although I picked up my medicine 5 years here, but I met an Asian girl with long hair treated me unprofessional today. I need to change pharmacy read more

"Who shops here? This looks like a place ppl steal from or just get prescriptions." - My husband as we walk in I only come here when soda is on sale or if I'm getting an oil change across the street. The product doesn't move fast, everything is not really sale priced even if its on sale and they don't sell phenomenal ice cream which is why I bother to go to Rite-Aid. My husband was pretty spot on with his commentary. Probably the best part of my shopping experience today! P.s. If you do need a snack, their store brand cranberry orange peel trail mix is really good if you're a fan of citrus. It's super zesty! read more

CVS Pharmacy - Wow. It takes a LONG time to separate! Look at all that dust! - Drugstores Near Me - Stanton, California

The stupid B word pharmacist is so effing rude. I really wish I'll upon her. I really need my meds. She had no kind bone in her body.

This pharmacy is the worst! I've have asked at least 10 times that they do NOT auto refill my prescriptions. But they keep doing it! They just contacted my dentist to issue a refill that I did not ask for. Do I have to contact a lawyer to get them to stop? read more

Located off Beach Blvd in Stanton. Been here a couple of times in the past. This location is not 24 hours. The store is well kept up and the staff was friendly. Overall your typical CVS store it's just not 24hours. read more

I shopped at CVS Pharmacy 12444 Beach Blvd. in Stanton. I had a $5 off CVS coupon that I wanted to use before expiration date. So I bought Ecotrin 81mg safety coated aspirin of 365 tablets that is cardiologist recommended. My doctor as has me taking 2 tablets daily. Then I remembered that Paisley & Buddy needed more can food. I bought 10 cans of Fancy Feast of the kinds they both liked. Chris & Teresa at the front cashier counter were nice and friendly. This location is nice and clean. They have a great staff. I thanked them both for allowing me to take photos. Then I left the store and drove off to find my next review. Robert H. read more

Came here to get a covid test from the drive through. My appointment was at 3pm, got there 5-10 minutes early, but I didn't get to the front until much later. After getting to the front they took even longer to get the test to me. I didn't leave CVS until 4pm. In comparison, I previously had a covid test at Walgreens and it didn't take this long. I saw two cars leave the line while I was waiting in line as well. Obviously they were fed up with the wait. Also, I've never had any problems with the CVS pharmacies inside of target. Not sure why it's such a big difference. read more

I have been going to this pharmacy for 25 years. It seems like in the last 5 years, their service has just tanked. Yesterday I waited for 3 prescriptions for 30 minutes of which I only walked away with 1. The other 2 had been "in process" for 3 days! I was told they had a new system, but not sure In going to go with that. Today U arrive to pick up the 2 from yesterday plus 1 more. You guessed it, I've been here for 20 minutes. Ugh...it shouldn't be this difficult. While the staff is always nice, there is something wrong with the process..or lack there of. I've stayed here because it convenient, but frankly, my time is worth something. Once I'm done here today, I'm transferring to a new pharmacy. Aaannndddd 45 minutes later, I'm out. Aarrgghh read more

I picked up a prescription on Tuesday and they called me on Saturday to see if I needed a refill along with another drug I have plenty of. What's going on? Are the pharmacist's not meeting your quota? The calls are annoying, especially since they can see the last time my prescription was filled. read more

ZERO stars if I can. Made an appointment for my parents for their booster covid vaccine (they are 65 and 67 years old) and had finished the 2nd dose in early February. The CDC recommends a booster in this population 6 months after the primary series. Went into the store at the appointed time and the pharmacist on duty TERENA VO denied our appointment on the spot. Verbally said that she denied the shot even though the CDC recommends a booster shot for my parents and the CVS homepage recommends it as well. There were no other patients at the time...I am livid as a healthcare worker since vaccinations are so important in controlling the pandemic. I have no idea what credentials this person has to go against what the CDC and her own corporate guidelines but this is unacceptable. If you need a vaccine, head elsewhere since they clearly don't follow the CDC and FDA guidelines. UPDATE: I was able to get my parents a booster shot at another CVS as a walk in and told them about my experience here. Even the pharmacist shook his head saying there was a communication to all cvs pharmacists Friday night/Saturday morning that says this population qualifies for a booster and to give one immediately. read more

1/2 of my prescriptions are filled in advance the other half I have to call about which really is a downer because I'm put on hold for at least 15 minutes. I never (I'm not over exaggerating) had to wait for my prescriptions at Walgreens but we had to make the change because our insurance company made us. The issue isn't the people at the store, it's the business model that CVS follows: maximum profit ahead of service to the customer. There is only one Pharmacist on duty while Walgreens has two. The techs at CVS do their best but they are obviously not on the same level as the techs at Walgreens. read more

Took COVID test here so I can go to Maui, never sent me results and it's been 4 days . Flew to Maui and they sent me home!Never again will I be going to cvs! read more

This pharmacy is bad was sick Doctor sent my prescription to this pharmacy they kept stalling I could of went somewhere else but it's been two days now and still no antibiotics I wish they would tell me to begin with so I could take my business elsewhere when your sick time matters and the sooner you get your medicine the sooner you will feel better don't appreciate this cvs store you have been warned be careful read more

Came in really quick to look at some merchandise for work. The parking lot had trash blowing across it, no joke. Once I entered the store it also felt a little run down. I was greeted upon entry (plus!). Having been into several CVS locations I can tell you that this experience does not represent the locations I usually frequent. read more

Very unprofessional. I had appointment for Covid vaccine booster at 1pm. I came 15' earlier and checked in as they instructed me via text and came to pharmacy at 12:50. Another came in at 1pm and cut the line. The pharmacy tech did not ask her what her appointment time was and took her before me. I came up to complain then she took my infos. I waited until 1:20 for them to prepare vaccines. Really? I used to work as medical assistant and it doesn't take that long to prepare stuffs. I got the first two vaccines at UCI, they are very professional and on time even they are very busy every day. When I came to this CVS pharmacy today, it was empty. Never come back here again even it's very closed from my house. read more

If you're looking to get a COVID test, don't bother coming here. Waited 40 minutes in the drive through line and the line didn't move AT ALL! What's the point of having an appointment if the appointment time isn't going to be held? An entire lunch hour wasted in line for NOTHING! read more

No star pharmacy are very unprofessional. They ask you what time you want your medication, by the time you want it and go back. They have to wait to get written of by the pharmacist who happen to go out to lunch. read more

The pharmacist and young woman giving vaccines were very nice. The Filipino woman taking vaccine check-ins, and prescription drop off was extremely rude!! My appointment was for 11:30am and I didn't get my shot for almost an hour. What is the point of an appointment if I still have to wait? There was a guy that walked in with no appointment and he got his shot right after I got mine. Dude was delighted with himself and telling everyone that he was glad it was so fast and no wait. I noticed on this day they waited until they had atleast 5 people that were there waiting for the vaccine and then the person giving the shots would come out and give all the shots one after another. My brother got his vaccine at Target and they gave him his shot within 10 minutes of his appointment time. read more

5 Years plus with this CVS. I had a lot of issue here but honestly, I loved the service I got from Andy. I never see him anymore and the issue are just piling up and too much to bare anymore. I'm switching after they fix this last issue. I held on hold for 35+ min today just to call on a separate phone and someone picks up my call to help while my other line is still running on hold. Also, they ALWAYS say they can't get a hold of my doctor and make me call them to ask for something but my doctor ALWAYS picked up for me. A couple times? I get it but EVERY time? Done read more

I spend quite a bit of time in this neighborhood, and this is the closest drug store, it's open 24 hours, and it's big. They don't really do anything spectacularly right, or anything spectacularly wrong. It's neither impressively clean nor unkempt. The employees haven't been extremely helpful or neglectful. The selection is fine, but hasn't blown me away. It's your basic run-of-the-mill CVS store. You could do worse. read more

Went in to get some sunglasses and a drink, needed to use the restroom as well, one of the two was out of order, but I still needed a code. Went and asked one of the guys for the code and he said "oh it's out of order". I asked what about the other bathroom. He said "oh that's an employee only restroom. (Which wasn't true, they both had the gender neutral sign up) How do you expect to make any money if you won't let someone use the restroom. No wonder they have horrible reviews. read more

I have the order from Apple Store delivered to the CVS but when I come to pick up was picked up by someone else. I don't know they didn't check the ID or the Staff involved. I came back and talked to the Suppervisor his name is Garry and showed him my email said my package been pick up. He yelled at me and said he wasn't there when it's happened. He gave me the store number to call back tomorrow and talk to manager. I'm so frustrated read more

Take pride in your store! Hire a landscaper to clean outside. What a mess. CVS, you suck!

I was in line to purchase something today and the manager Chris was so rude and disrespectful to a non speaking Latino in front of me. He told him sir were in America we speak English here. He told the guy next to me this guy is pissing me off because he speaks no English. I stepped in to translate. This is something I never imagined I would experience in my life. I was embarrassed for the man in disbelief that this happened in front of me. I would not expect a manager to act this way. If he does not know how to deal with people of all races and ethnicities he should not be in front line. read more

I recently switched from Walgreens to CVS , I've had no issues but the only drawback is when you do call in to refill or check up on a refill prescription you're put on hold for quite a bit of time but besides that customer service is great drive-through is very easy and convenient during these times read more

This is the worst CVS pharmacy department that I've ever known. They kept hung up on me multiple times after I explained my concern. They made me wait very long on the phone and then intentionally hung up because they're too lazy to solve the problem. read more

Andy at the pharmacy is always as sweet as can be. Always in a good mood and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. He is always a helpful, informative and professional. He truly is the reason I have continued to go to this particular location. read more

Constant lies by CVS. I'm current Transplant patient recovering from Bone Marrow transplant. My medication is very important since I go through numerous and serious GVHD. They never admit any of their faults. They told me they have requested for replacement med since insurance wouldn't cover certain med but never contacted my doctor. They have told me they never received certain prescription but my doctor's system shows confirmation for receipt at CVS. I'll definitely move over all my prescriptions. read more

Good luck getting TERESA to help you out with her customer service skills. Very rude, annoyed she has to move from one place to another "helping " look for something. Huffing and puffing and rolling her eyes bc you ask for assistance looking for an item. Also, she did not bag my items in the bag. She left the bag there had me bag them while she stood there and watched. Horrible never going there again! God forbid I inconvenience her at work ever again. read more

This is a mix review. Came in on Thanksgiving to buy some items for dinner that evening. The cashier name was Christopher. He was not a very pleasant employee. It is a long story, so I won't go into details. Came back a week later to speak to the manager on staff. His name was Paul. He was the ultimate professional. Listened to what I had to say and the proof I had to show what Christopher did was wrong. Paul agreed with me and compensated me a fair way. The reason for my three star rating is because that is an average of my CVS experience. 1 star for Christopher and 5 for Paul. read more

Pharmacy employers are rude and make me feel like I don't know what I'm talking about. I called to refill a prescription and the RX number was incorrect. So I spoke with an employee, told her what happened, and in the most condescending tone, she said to me "you know that's not the RX number?" Obviously. Another incident occurred when I continued to keep refilling my prescription because the voice recording said "it's in process", when actually the pharmacy was low on my medication and didn't bother to inform me. I finally called to ask what was going on because I was going on day 3 without my meds and one of the Pharmacist said "you're not suppose to stop taking your medication". Incredibly unprofessional and lacking in costumer service. I will not be coming back to this location. read more
