I used the drive through to receive my medication yesterday and everything went fine until the…read moreDoctor came to the window to tell me how the medication was to be taken. She was speaking very fast and when I tried to ask her to slow down she continued to talk over me and even faster. It was like trying to communicate with a 16 year old girl. This has never happened to me at a pharmacy ever. It was as if she was only telling me the instructions because she had to. After she finished she told me everything she said was on the bottle. She also never iterated that I should spread out the two pills I'd be taking daily. I proceeded to read the instructions but still managed to take the medication wrong. I believe it was because of this incident. This was unprofessional as we are talking about medication here. I then called to ask if how I took the medication was ok and I know I the call was answered by the same woman doctor. She had no answer for me and again was rushing the conversation. Rather that she needed to call my doctor? This has never happened to me before. I believe a Pharmacist doctor should know the answer to these kinds of simple questions. She told me she would need to call my doctor and call me back. She did call back with decent news which was great. My only advise here is no matter how busy somewhere gets that the pharmacists take their job more seriously and take time in explaining how medication should be consumed properly. Also, it is unhealthy for her to be moving or talking that fast. No one should have to receive their medication this way!

Extremely disappointed in the service that we received here. Came on a Wednesday evening with my…read morefriend for his passport photo, as Walgreens offers a free digital copy with purchase of a printed copy. There was no line, so the store associate took his photo and uploaded it to their system. After, we inquired about the free digital copy (which was advertised on the Walgreens website as well as on the signage in store), the associate said they had never heard about it. He eventually reached out to a coworker who confirmed that the free digital copy was in fact a valid offer. Once my friend paid for his photos, he checked his email as the photos are supposed to be emailed upon purchase. Unfortunately they were never delivered, so we asked the store associate if there is anything he could do. He did little to look for alternatives and simply stated that it was not possible to get into the system to resend. The printed photos weren't the best quality (the background appeared a bit gray) so even when uploaded to the passport site, the photo was disapproved. If you are looking to get new passport photos, I would highly recommend looking elsewhere.

However, the store in Azusa closed so I had no choice but to go back to this store. Amanda, the supervisor, I believe has always been helpful and pleasant but the rest, especially the cashier in the front, a young female lacks good customer service skills. She was unfriendly and I did not feel valued as a customer. I miss the store in Azusa, the staff was nice, friendly, and helpful.

This location is often very disorganized and I find it hard to quickly run in to find the items I…read moreneed. I've visited this location on different days and different times, but they always seem to have carts blocking the aisles and bins of merchandise on the ground, but I can never find anybody to help me. This is a particularly acute problem now that everything one might actually purchase is locked away to prevent theft. The only time I can ever find somebody is when the staff want to close early and try to prevent you from entering for an urgent item. (Thankfully, they only stopped letting people in after they noticed me enter roughly 20 minutes before closing...) It's usually faster to drive further to another store. Don't waste your time or money here if you have other options.

When the ownership of Best Buy Drugs changed hands a few years ago, becoming PAX 2 Pharmacy, Sierra…read moreMadre faced a real problem. It's a small town and set in our ways. The community is admirably resistant to chain stores (the one survivor can be found dispensing charred, overpriced coffee worldwide), and if PAX had not decided to move here we may instead have had one of the indistinguishable chain drug outlets. Instead we now have a splendid example of a superior, locally-owned business that is both professionally top-notch (I'm a geezer; I know what I'm talking about) and exquisitely attentive to its clientele. The pharmacist/owner, Bella, has a comprehensive knowledge of pharmacy, naturally, but is attuned to her customers. She has retained the staff who have been here for years, and brought in some outstanding people as needed. In short, even if I lived in Pasadena, I would still trek to Sierra Madre in order to get the sort of personal attention you receive here.

UNACCEPTABLE COMMUNICATION & DENIAL OF PHARMACIST ACCESS…read more I attempted to reach a pharmacist via phone, but I was explicitly told by the front desk that the pharmacists "requested not to be forwarded calls anymore." My multiple voicemails, regarding my medication, went completely ignored. This is not just a customer service issue; it is a violation of California Code of Regulations (Title 16, § 1707.2), which mandates a pharmacist's duty to consult. By blocking phone access, this location is choosing convenience over patient safety and ethics. This pharmacy invites medical malpractice and professional misconduct claims. PATIENT RIGHTS: IF YOU HAVE BEEN IGNORED If you have been harmed by this pharmacy's lack of communication, know your rights under California law: THE 10-MINUTE RULE: A pharmacist must be available to speak to you within an average of 10 minutes. ONE-HOUR CALLBACK: If they cannot talk immediately, they must schedule a return call within one business hour. RIGHT TO CONSULT: Patients have an absolute right to an oral consultation "in all settings," including over the phone. If they fail to meet these standards, they can be reported to the California Board of Pharmacy. If their refusal to communicate leads to a medical error, you may be entitled to compensation for professional negligence. ---------- HOW TO FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH THE CALIFORNIA BOARD OF PHARMACY: It takes 3 minutes to hold this CVS legally accountable: Go to the the California Board of Pharmacy website at www.pharmacy.ca.gov Locate the Form: Click on "Consumers" and then select "File a Complaint". You can fill out the form online instantly. Provide the Details: Pharmacy Name: CVS Pharmacy #09689. Address: 950 W Foothill Blvd, Monrovia, CA 91016. The Violation: Specifically cite CCR § 1707.2 (Duty to Consult) and mention that your voicemails were not returned or front staff refused to connect you to a pharmacist. ------------ I have moved my prescriptions elsewhere. WHERE TO GO INSTEAD AMAZON PHARMACY: They offer free home delivery and an "RxPass" that is often cheaper than insurance copays. To switch, just hit "transfer" in their app. VONS PHARMACY (Monrovia): Located on Foothill. It is much quieter, and the pharmacists actually communicate with patients. PAVILIONS PHARMACY (Arcadia): Offers a professional, calm atmosphere with a focus on service. PAX PHARMACY (Duarte): They answer the phone immediately and often provide free local delivery because they value your business.
