This is about the Walgreens pharmacy at 6118 St. Andrews Road…read more The pharmacy closed without notice or explanation on Sept 26 -- and left me without needed medications. Made me miss the first three doses of antibiotics my doctor ordered, and I had no pain meds to get me through the night. BACKGROUND DETAILS: I had oral surgery that day in the late morning and my dentist said she would call in three prescriptions (antibiotic, special mouthwash to prevent infection, and medication for pain). I usually get an automated text from Walgreens alerting me that my prescription is ready for pickup. No texts. I called around 4 pm and got a recorded message that the pharmacy was closed. (Their posted hours are 9 am to 6 pm.) I called back and asked for the store manager. Got a woman (not the regular manager) who told me that the pharmacy would be open the next day at 9. No "How can I help?" No "Sorry for the inconvenience." I wasn't able to find out whether they had even received the prescription order, and it was too late to contact my dentist to ask her to send it to a different pharmacy. I did not receive a text message that next morning, so I called at about 11 am. I gave up after waiting on hold for 10 minutes and went to the store. The "fill-in" pharmacist (nice lady) found the prescription but had not begun to fill it. She said she didn't know why the pharmacy had been closed. She said my prescriptions would be ready in 15 minutes. I decided to run errands. Received a text message at 1 pm saying they were ready for pick-up. This is the second time in six months that there has been a significant problem with getting an urgently needed prescription filled. I tried to fill out their customer satisfaction survey online but got repeated warnings that the connection wasn't private. Tried calling the phone number provided for the survey and got cut off halfway through my complaint. Everything about this experience was negative. I will be switching to CVS for my prescription needs.

They did not see the prescription in their system, went back just before closing and they still did not see it and seemed not to care. The prescription was for a common antibiotic and I showed them in MyChart that the doctor had input it as well as the doctor's name. No concern they would not do anything. I asked for one pill for the evening as prescribed and the problem could be resolved in the morning. No to doing that. Had it been a narcotic they certainly should not do it but no excuse for not doing it with all the information available. CVS culture is not what it use to be.

She went to the ER and they stabilized her but we were out of the drug. She has had 5 similar episodes over the last 2 decades and this drug is a necessity. We went to an endocrinologist to restock and we got a prescription for the medication, so went to Walgreens to have the prescription filled. When we picked it up they exclaimed that we needed a separate prescription for the syringe to administer the drug. WHAT? The drug can only be administered through syringe. They indicated that it was state law. When we looked it up online while sitting in the cue, it clearly indicated that there is no state law that supports that claim. I got a little heated with the pharmacist because she was clearly giving me false information. To prove my case, I went to the CVS across the street and showed them the prescription and thy happily provided us with 4 syringes at .25 cents each. These people are ridiculous. Take you business to CVS. Much happier and helpful people there, who are actually concerned about health. We have gone to Walgreens for 2 years but will call our doctors tomorrow and make sure all further prescriptions are sent to CVS.
