I've had a good experience every time I've used the Countrywood Plaza CVS pharmacy. Recently, I called this pharmacy about getting a flu shot. They answered the phone right away, said that they had it in stock, asked for my name and date of birth, and by the time I got there 10 minutes, the shot was waiting for me at the pick up counter. The pharmacist was very good, I barely felt the shot, and was out the door in under 10 minutes. Thanks! read more

Unfortunately I was limited to my pharmacy selections on Saturday night so I stumbled upon this pharmacy. The pharmacist on tonight did not help fill my husbands pain medication prescription. He has never had a history of opioid usage and had bone graft surgery yet she questioned every little thing Possible. She claimed the answering service wouldn't pick up and then when she reached them that the my husband was not "in the system" at that doctors office! I had just met with the doctor to get the script prior to going to this pharmacy. This was a delay in care and I will be reporting it. Luckily I was able to go to the S. California Blvd CVS and get the prescription filled in no time so that my husband would not be in pain. You should avoid this pharmacy for fear of being judged and delay in care. read more

I've come in here a lot, primarily because they're my pharmacy of choice seeing as I live right around the corner... The service at the pharmacy is hit or miss... I've had some very kind pharmacists and I've had people who clearly would rather be conversing with a cockroach. Still, when all is said and done, it's the drugs that keep me coming back. read more

60 minutes for one pill. It's counting to one dude. If this is your strategy to get me to buy stuff, it's not working and only making me rethink where I get prescriptions. I am going to try the Safeway or Target. This place is a joke. They tell me 30 minutes, then tell me 20 minutes and 10 minutes after that I am still waiting. Ridiculous. read more

This is close to my house so I go here a lot more than I'd like to. They are SO SLOW! And the cashiers are always talking back and forth across the store not ringing up as they talk even if they have a huge line. No one cares about customer service here. read more

Sooooooo ruuuuuuuuddddeeeeeeeeee!!!! Might be the worst pharmacy and customer service , EVER! All I need is a Zpack ppl! The attitudes are nauseating here . Save a trip n a headache and go somewhere else read more

People who work there are not very friendly and never smile. Pricing and availability of things I buy on a regular basis are so overpriced at CVS. I have started going to Target in Walnut Creek, as I tallied up the same items in one shopping trip from Target and then priced each item at CVS, and I SAVED $30.42 by going to Target! CVS is a RIP OFF for the same items. Everything is at least $2.00-$3.00 higher priced at CVS. I only go to CVS now if I absolutely have to due to time constraints of my daily activities. You guys need to get cracking on being more competitive with your competitors! read more

Feel kind of bad for the negative reviews I've read. The employees have always been courteous to me and additional registers are opened if lines get long. I've witnessed some nasty customers treating the employees with rudeness I personally would not tolerate and totally understand if these employees are not always so chipper. They are quick to help if asked but thinking maybe not so fast if you're rude. read more

My husband has a benign brain tumor, no medical, no Medi-cal and is waiting for Medicare. I pay $233 every two months for Levetiracetam 180 pills he takes 1 1/2 in the morning and 1 1/2 at night. In June on the 16th I picked up what I thought were 180 pills and only discovered today that he needed a refill way before 8/16. I spoke with the pharmacy and took the bottle in she said that 180 would not fit in a bottle that size but would not do anything to check [like count her inventory]to see if we were shorted. I refilled the script early spent another $233 and am just sad and frustrated at the whole matter. The script is now up for refill and I am going to move it to Target and never look back or go there again. read more

Watch this pharmacy they are not honest or up front. I went to get some Claritin D which they had the cards for out in the isle. Instead of telling me they were out and did not remove the cards they just rung up their generic brand. I caught that there and made them return it. They then sold me the 12 hour instead of 24, I thought if it would not work I would return it. Long story short it didn't work and they would not return. Sad such a large company has these practices. read more

Very poor customer service. Had a terrible experience with the pharmacy mishandling a migraine medication delivery - it was delayed 4 business days and they essentially told me to "go find it myself" as they could only call 2 other stores in the area. I was told they were "too busy" to do any more than that. Not to mention I was leaving on a trip and needed the medication before I was departing. read more

I don't normally write reviews for bigger stores like this, but I had a wonderful experience today and I had to share. I had purchased a few travel items about 3 weeks ago and not surprisingly I lost the receipt. I walked into the store a couple days ago and realized I didn't have the receipt to return the items so I left. But today I thought I'd try again. The young gentleman at the register was so kind and didn't give me a hard time about not having my receipt. He even explained to me that even though I'm used my rewards number and my credit card that they don't have the ability to look back at past transactions, but he would gladly be able to give me store credit. It was just such a quick and virtually effortless experience. I'm only bummed that this young man who helped me wasn't wearing a name tag so I can't shout him and out give him the props he deserves. But he was young, blonde haired, tall man and he is so sweet!! read more

Thier system to call ahead and refill prescriptions is a joke. I tried to refill prescriptions three different times over the phone and each time they never "received" the request. I have to call and speak with someone to get my proscription filled and when i finally was able to place the order for the script they filled it and didn't tell me i didn't have enough pills for a full refill and they put it through my insurance anyway. Now i have to wait till next month to get a full script and pay for my remainder meds since they got a refill order after the fact. read more

I give it a medium rating because the pharmacy is staffed with nice folks who are accommodating, but the evening/early morning check out ladies are rude and snarky. Everyone I go in there they have some comment they must rudely spew on wither myself or the other customers. Otherwise it is a good store, great hours, and convenient location. read more

If I could give a minus 10 I would. This is the absolute worst pharmacy ever. The worst service. Several doctors have days the exact dance thing. No providers in the area like this CVS. They lose, say they never get, lie and never get the actual RX correct. Eight phone calls from provider for RX and they still never got it right. Transferred to another pharmacy. DO NOT EVER GET RX HERE!!! THEY ARE THE WORST PRESCRIPTION DEPARTMENT I'VE SEEN IN MY LIFE!! read more

MinuteClinic Review: Was trying to get a shingles vaccination (Shingrix) which is in short supply so I wanted to call first to see if they had it in stock. There is no way to call an individual store so I called the general MinuteClinic customer service line. Called at 5:00 PM PST and was told the store was closed (actually it should have been open to 9:00 PM PST). Call center must use eastern time. Called the call center back the next morning at 6:00 AM (when the store was closed) and waited 30 min on hold. When someone finally answered they were helpful. Walnut Creek store had 10 does of Shingrix in stock so come on down. Got to the store for 9:00 AM opening time (as provided by customer service center) and the MinuteClinic was not staffed. CVS personnel didn't have any idea if or when the MinuteClinic might open as MinuteClinic is a different company than CVS. Finally saw a small sign saying they would reopen at 9:00 AM THE NEXT MORNING. Needless to say I was not impressed. read more

My husband and I are here all the time to pick up prescriptions. The line is always so long and we're not sure why. We've used CVS's across the country and never had to wait as long as we have had to at this CVS consistently. We don't think it's a timing issue. It is a constant thing. Only on rare occasions do we not have to wait. Many times they do not have my medication and it has to be ordered which means I have to wait 2-3 days if it's a Friday. I think the pharmacy could be better run. Just my opinion. read more

Went in today to the Minute Clinic. No one was waiting and the staff was very nice. I drove from Alameda and it was worth it. I would highly recommend this Minute Clinic for job testing (TB, etc.). The cost is $35.00 for the test & $29.00 for the read after 3 days. read more

The Minute Clinic is a great idea and CVS even has a system to text you when your appointment is within 30mins...I got the text. 1 hour later and counting. Not a good use of technology nor time! read more

*Minute Clinic Review* Wonderful, fast, reasonably priced -- the practitioner who saw me on Sunday for an ear complaint is awesome. I will be coming back! Thank you!! read more

I'm giving my review soley on the service I received from the photog dept. The tall, blonde woman who was working was so beyond helpful! I had a question about picture mugs and she didn't know the answer to one of my questions so she walked me through the process step by step and waited for me to load my numerous photos so that she could find out my answer and know the next time someone asked. I was very impressed by the time she took to help me and when I complimented her on it she just said that her work ethic is to be as helpful as possible. She also talked about how fortunate she is to have a job to go to and I was once again very impressed. Not many worker bees out there like her! Myself included sometimes:) read more

Disorganized, didn't have 2 of the 3 things I came for that every drug store should carry. Pretty unfriendly, non present staff.

Went in for a flu shot. Wait was long despite only one person in front of me. A sign said they took lunch from 2-3 but that apparently meant 3:45. The woman was very nice, and professional, but it's exactly what you'd expect in terms of organization. read more

Most CVS pharmacies were Longs Drugs prior to the change. Today I went in for something completely different, I went in to the minute clinic to inquire about a shot for pneumonia, the gal at the minute clinic told me it's not recomended that I get a pneumonia vaccine, and she also explained why, her name is Diana and she is very helpful, I'm a healthy person, and didn't want to get pneumonia since it had been going around the family. I was reassured not to worry, typically the shot is given to people age 65 years or older, I learned that today. The women at the registrar was also very helpful to. read more

I Moved to WC, have used CVS Alamo for 20 years near. Last week I brought in 2 prescriptions I have used since my work injury in 2014. The pharmacist said she needed to call my doctor before filling. After she called and he confirmed, she informed me she would fill one but not the other. She began to lecture me in line with several customers behind and left of me, I did not want to argue so I asked her to call my doctor, tell him she would not fill one so he would be aware of this. The next day I went back to pick up the one prescription and the same pharmacist now told me should changed her mind and would not fill either, and began to lecture me once again that this drug had habit forming tendencies. I have always tried to support local business, but I will not give CVS another dollar of my business, its not hard to realize why people are moving to Mail Order Pharmacies. read more

My comment here is more for the store, not the pharmacy. I few weeks ago I had a cold. I went to Bancroft CVS for some zinc tablets to speed my recovery. I found some zinc and C gum that was on sale at about $3.00 off the $9.49 price. I bought it, but a couple days later saw I was charge full price, so I stopped by CVS to check signage at shelf. It indeed said price was $3 off for two more weeks. So I went to check outs and spoke to the older woman with the puffed up hair. She was gossiping and I gave her and the other check out lady time to finish a sentence and no customers were in line. I asked her where I should go to have a price adjusted? I was charged the normal price in this sale item. Her response was strange! She said well I don't know. What do you mean you need the price adjusted? So I said I bought this zinc gun a couple days ago, it is posted as being $6.49, but I was charged the $9.49. I just wanted the price corrected. She still played dumb with me like she didn't know how to handle this! She said: I guess you could go to that counter over there. We never had to adjust a price! Plus it was said in a smart ass manner, So I stopped and thought OK, am I really going to engage this idiot, yes I will. So I turned back at her and asked. You never had to adjust a price incorrectly charged to a customer? And she says back to me while glaring. No, I haven't. Not here at this store. So I asked again to pin her in this stupid statement...So there has never been a price incorrectly charged here at this store? Ever? She repeated back to me. No, and I've been here over 20 years. I have never charged a wrong price! I was amazed at this, so since I was the only customer at the front I raised my voice where all 4 employees could hear and I turned more towards the photo counter direction check out, where I assumed a person in charge was now visible, and I said: That's amazing, she says this store has never charged a price incorrectly? Never in its history?? Really? That's simply a miracle in perfect customer service. Like a magical store this is! The other make employee was even shaking his head No! As if agreeing with what she just said! So I said to him as I walked that way, Never? I then was at the photo counter. A blonde woman with that I'm in charge more than the rest look, said reluctantly and frowning what is the problem ? I said I bought this item at 9.49, and it's should be 6.49, just a simple price mix up, and I was hoping to get the correct price. Here is a picture of the item on the shelf. She looked at it very close on my phone hoping to find me wrong in some way, then checked the computer. and then reluctantly agreed that the ad says until 12/31 and then she then looks at my receipt. As she's doing this I asked her. So this store never has made a mistake on a price? Never ever? As the employee over there proudly states? And she too says well no, it's all computerized so it's scanned and the prices are always correct!!!! So how do you explain this I asked? Am I the first one in 60 years here that had a price charged incorrectly? How is it that this store is absolutely perfect until I show up today? She then got a bit defensive and said... It's OK, I'll give you the $3. I said great, that's seems fair don't you think? I'm not asking too much am I, cause it seems like I am from your employees reaction and even yours right now! She then says again firmly ... I'm going to just give you this 3 dollars and she hands be 3 ones. Fine, that's good. She then asked if I want my receipt back. I said no thanks. No need for proof now. See ya! read more

The bathroom of this pharmacy is definitely a concern for a safety hazard. It smells as if feces have been manifested and grown for many years. The bathroom has no ventilation so you are just breathing in the toxic fumes that is the accumulation of the fece infested rothole that is the bathroom. You would expect a place where people get their medications to be clean. However this is the exact opposite of such. It is worse than a third world country's bathroom. read more

Worst place ever! I only gave it 2 stars because it is close to my home. There are maybe two or three good employees there. the rest are slow, rude, clueless and don't have the first idea of what customer service means. I never leave this store un-annoyed. Not to mention it's probably has the highest markup compared to other drug stores. I miss Longs! read more

Horrible pharmacy customer service ! They messed up my prescription and then ignored me while continuing to help other customers ! Pharmacist was dismissive and rude !! Their system wasn't working and they kept helping other customers instead of resolving it! read more

The Minute Clinic at this location is horrible, very disappointing. This isn't healthcare or anywhere close to it. They turn people away 45 minutes before closing for fear they'd run late. They are closed during published business hours!!! These people don't understand the business they're in, shameless. read more

My roommate and I went in with a giftcard and the cashier, Rosa P., was so awful and rude to us. First, she made a rude comment about what we were buying, which was candy and chips for a party we were having (she eyeballed us both, and said 'we're eating healthy tonight'. We are both bigger girls, and there was malicious tone) and then when we went to use the gift card we had, she kept putting the numbers in wrong, and then tried to tell us we couldn't use it, and wouldn't ask for help. *WE* had to call the manager over, who promptly did it correctly. And this isn't the first time she's been rude to us. There was another time that, while I was coming in, she said 'hi welcome', to which I responded with a smile, but I guess she wanted something more than that because she then SHOUTED it again at me. She's so unpleasant and unnecessarily rude. I can't stand it. I'd rather drive further away than deal with that rude person again. I work in customer service as well, and there is absolutely no excuse for this kind of awful service. I'd give zero stars if I could. read more

Would give zero stars if I could. The pathetic excuse for service the manager and sale cashier displayed was inexcusable even for the least capable store. Wish I could down vote more read more

The customer service at the pharmacy is the best we have ever had. The pharmacy we normally use was out of a medicine that was needed to fill my husbands prescription. They did not let us know when we called it in but waited to tell us when we went to pick it up. My neighbor suggested we call CVS as that's where she goes. It was 15 minutes from the time I called them and they got the prescription from the other pharmacy and called me that it was ready for pickup. When I got there to pickup the prescription they had even looked up all our insurance information. Unbelievable service!! We will now have all our pharmacy needs fulfilled at the CVS at Bancroft and Treat. Five stars!!! read more

I saw that this CVS didn't have good yelp reviews and felt compelled to provide a different perspective. I've been going there for several years - since it flipped from Riteaid to CVS - and I think the customer service is very good. the people working the front counter are bright and responsive. the line moves along fairly quick, and they've always offered to spend time and explain new prescriptions. read more

they have good stock of most products, the staff are helpful and the place isn't really any different than the other ones!

Yet again a case of over promise and under deliver at the pharmacy here. I had 3 prescriptions and they didn't put one on my insurance. I should have been able to walk in, stand in line once and be on my way. I've been here 25 minutes and counting.....in line a 2nd time after they said they'd check me out as soon as they could change the label 15 minutes ago. read more

I don't normally shop at CVS because of their over prices even though I'm a member but today I went looking for Special K protein shakes strawberry flavor. Well I walked in the door the chashier lady said "hello" I said "hi" back but I think she didn't hear me so she like yelled HELLO! I was like??? So I said hi again and she heard me, so as I was walking in this scary looking guy walked in behind me he looked my age.. Well anyways I was looking for the protein shakes in the drink area, breakfast area,and the guy was like fallowing me I was scare I'm not gonna lie so I walked by the medicine section and apparently he wanted to steal something so the lady kicked him out.. I had no success in finding the protein shakes so I started heading towards the exit empty handed then the lady said "TELL YOUR FRIEND NOT TO COME BACK HERE" I was so confuse and replied "HE ISNT MY FRIEND!? I walked out before the lady insulted me more. That worker overall is rude I've seen her before working there.. They also need to fix their prices! $8.99 for protein shakes and in Walgreens their 2 packs for $12 read more

I ran in to pick up a prescription this afternoon - I had to run the ladies room. I walked in and almost vomited. I cannot remember the last time I've been a restroom in such deplorable conditions. I walked out and looked for a manger - when I found him, he was in an aisle having a conversation with someone socially and didn't even pay attention to the fact that I might have been standing there to say something to him. I needed to be someplace, so I stopped by an employee that was stacking stuff on shelves and said, "I just wanted to bring to your attention that the ladies room is a disgusting mess!!" She looked at me said "I'm sorry" and went right back to doing what she was doing. I seriously will consider never going in to this location. As I was preparing to write this review on here, I happened to go through some of the reviews and noticed that just a few weeks ago a gentlemen posted something about the restrooms being terrible - One would think that a few short weeks later, something would have been done - like terminating that manager if he can't manage!!! Not to mention he was literally paged to the pharmacy about 8 times today as someone was waiting to speak to him, that by the way was while he was having a personal conversation and ignoring me!!! GOOD JOB DUDE!!!!! By the way, the person that was waiting for him was an interview - that wonderful manager continued doing what he was doing and gave instructions to the individual how to walk through the store and up a flight of stairs to his office and to wait for him there - why, just why would anyone want to work for such a person???? read more

Minute Clinic first-time patient - and it was an excellent experience. The Dr. (Santos) was one of the best - loved her! Without hesitation, I would recommend this to anyone. She called in a script to the pharmacy and it was "one-stop" shopping. My option was to wait to weeks to get into a physician... hmmmm... this is a great way to go. Highly recommend! read more

I moved to this cvs about five years ago after the horrible service at Walgreens. I was happy with the service until this year when the lines got really long no matter what time I went. They pretty much stopped answering their phone, too. Last week, I went to pick up a prescription following surgery, and they tried to give me the wrong medicine. They insisted that it was for me. I told them it was not from any of my doctors and that I did not take that medication. As I tried to explain, the tech kept interrupting. When I asked her to let me finish, she said, "Fine then. I will just shut up." I asked to speak to a pharmacist who reacted pretty much the same way. She kept saying it was not cvs' fault as they only fill what is called in. She was telling me that some doctor called in this prescription for me. Long story short, I refused the medication, but when I got home I found a slip for it in my bag. Thing was, that medication was for another person entirely! They were trying to convince me that some random doctor called in a random rx for me when it did not even have my name on it. I called to speak to a pharmacist who said they have had budget cuts and do not have enough staff to hand out the medicine correctly. She said the situation was really bad. Well, that is scary when the pharmacist herself acknowledges a problem like that. They seem to be following the Walgreen's business model. Where to go now? read more
