    Strikes: They don't have self-checkout like the one in Columbia Heights. They don't develop film like the one in Brightwood. Two strikes. The workers are nice. The neighboring locations just do things better.

    CVS in Pethworth

    I feel for the pharmacist and the staff at most CVS locations in Washington, DC. I came to the Pethworth CVS to pick up a prescription for pneumonia that was written incorrectly by the discharging doctor on Friday 10/2/21. I went Saturday morning to pick up the medicine for the pharmacist was helpful and called the doctor and didn't have luck. I called first thing Monday morning and Tuesday morning, but this time I was told the pharmacist isn't answering for the doctor to correct their error and speak to them. It is now Wednesday afternoon and the pharmacist is packed with people and he doesn't answer the phone or does and says hold on until someone hangs up. Shame on CVS having people that work for them because they not have to fill prescriptions they need to give Covid shots. They are short staffed which causes for poor and long service. Try Safeway or Giant were I hear they're super nice and quick. I wish anyone else luck at any CVS in DC. If you go into the south NW CVS's they do have adequate staffing for people to go in and out of those establishments.

    The line at the pharmacy is always a mile long. Ridiculous. Staff provides no explanations even when there are tons of people lined up.

    Poor quality service from the pharmacy. They always seem understaffed, frazzled and not knowledgeable.

    It's clean. It's nice. it's generally uncrowded. Compared to the CVS on 14th and Irving this feels like the Promised Land.

    If you work in the pharmacy you have to be nice to people you can't just be mean to someone who has a question about something. Seriously

    This CVS is the pharmacy everyone loves to hate. Or maybe just hates. But I detect improvement. On…read moremy latest visit, there was an electronic check in for picking up prescriptions. It was easy to use, and much quicker than mouthing your name and DOB through a pane of glass, and sometimes, a mask, as the tech struggles to hear. In a short time my medicine was brought to the counter, I paid, and was outta there. I think this will greatly improve how quickly those agonizingly long lines move. On this occasion, there was NO line, but I think that was a fluke, as when I left I saw a line had formed. Also, I have enjoyed the CVS app, where you can leave a message for the pharmacist and get a call back with an answer to your question within a few hours. Again, much more efficient that being on hold or standing in line (again) at the consultation counter. Fingers crossed that these efficiencies hold and I am able to bump up my stars to four, or dare I wish it, FIVE! For that to happen, the prescription refill process will need to be vastly improved. The current bot is quite dim-witted. Thanks for trying, CVS.

    Overall, I had a very regular experience here. I stopped by to pick up a couple of items…read more Unfortunately, the items that I needed were behind the counter so there was a little bit of a wait in the line. On one hand, the wait was a bit long. But on the other hand, the wait was "long" because the cashier was helping a customer figure out their coupon situation. I guess I don't mind my minor inconvenience because the staff was really going out of its way for a customer who needed help.
