    I only use the pharmacy here because it's close and has a drive up window…read more Over the years, I have had two pharmacists who have been really great. Very attentive, knowledgeable, and caring. The kind of professionals that I want when someone is dealing with something that I'm going to ingest or use in our on my body. They have a young woman who is usually at the window, and she is awesome. She always has a smile on her face and is willing to go the extra mile to make sure that you are well taken care of. The biggest issue that I have with this pharmacy is that, for some reason, lately, their drive up window has been closed during their open hours. This issue makes it very difficult for those who may have a disability to be able to easily get their medicine. Other than that, I trust the pharmacy. And because it's easy access and the folks seem to know what they're doing, I won't go anywhere else. I'm very happy that this particular pharmacy in Kingston was not subject to the closures that happened around the country to Rite Aid.

They have made several calls to clarify or transfer my prescriptions, several times over the past few years. I much prefer them to a supermarket across the street, which I found problematic. When I was about to leave the country for six months, my insurance company would not pay for any additional supply of medication. The pharmacist told me about a discount that is available. I had never heard of it before. I wound up paying $54 for the three months of medication that at full price cost many hundreds of $$. That is very good customer service.

    Pharmacist Halle L. is a miserable non-professional. If I could rate her 0, I certainly would. She…read moreworks evenings (The day time male pharmacist is WONDERFUL!). Unfortunately I must recommend forgoing all prescriptions at this Walgreen's location for fear you may encounter Halle L. Yesterday I called 3 times to get automated updates. First one told me scripts would be ready at 11:30am. Second update was they'd be ready by 2pm. Third update said by 6:30pm. I arrived at the drive-thru at 7:30pm (30 minutes before close). The assistant told me the scripts weren't ready and to come back in 15 minutes. I drove up to the window again at 7:46pm. Assistant told me they still weren't ready and to come back again in 15 (more) minutes, which, by then, would be after close at 8pm. I told her I would just wait there, thank you. Unprofessional "pharmacist", Halle L. got on the drive-thru phone and told me no one is allowed to, "block my driveway". I replied with, "I am not blocking anyone's driveway. There is no one behind me and you close in 12 minutes. If a car pulls up behind me, I will drive around, as is standard protocol." She then told me, "I have the authority to refuse service to anyone and I will not fill your prescriptions today." Up until then I was calm and understanding - even after waiting all day and yes, being told to come back, "in 15 minutes..". I asked her if she was serious. After she affirmed, I told her she was a miserable human being. I didn't yell, rather stated the fact in a less calm tone, maintaining volume control. If you want professional and prompt customer service, do NOT go to Walgreens and I warn you, stay away from Halle L.

    This review is for whoever is managing. I came in tonight for a nail file. An employee greeted me…read more This dude was older and he was sitting. Literally no customers and a very slow night. And when I made my purchase he literally apologized TO ME for sitting. Like what the actual fuck. I cannot believe that someone high up probably made him feel like he could not sit and rest and then he has to say sorry to me. That is a disgrace. Ya'll gotta take better care of your hard working employees because that is disgusting.

    In short Chronically understaffed, but they get the job…read moredone. In long Chain pharmacy/drugstores all start to run together after a while. This one covers all the basics from what I can see. After recently changing insurance, we now pick up here. Every time I've driven through to pick up at the window, the line has been crazy long. They often have one person handling both the in-store and drive-through pickups. This is insane! Most pharmacies have several techs and a pharmacist working. One day last week the line didn't move an inch for almost 10 minutes. Fortunately, they offer delivery for a reasonable price ($3). That'll have to do for stuff we're not out of on the day they fill. It takes 2 business days, though. One other demerit: Their website does not let you send a question about a pickup (or anything else). Other pharmacies do, which saves you having to call once, fight through the phone menu, and then wait for them to call back. If they would add this to their website, it would let the employees answer the question when they can and then call you. They almost seem like they're purposely designing the work environment to drive their employees nuts. I asked the tech last night if they always make her work by herself, and she just laughed. I still can't figure out why that would be funny...lol

Considering how busy they are, the staff is always professional and efficient for me and my family. We often use the drive thru to pick up our prescriptions. It's gonna be hit and miss for how long a line there is, depending on the time of day so we try to find time before or after the late day rush. Appreciate having express pay for a quicker checkout.

Amoxicillin is an oral antibiotic that you can buy over the counter in any apothecary in Europe and most likely Asia. I have a gum infection below a tooth & this drug would make short work of the infection. But not here in the U.S. without a prescription. That means you have to visit a doctor $$$$$ which may not be cost effective for many. We also found a lot of doctors will want to run a bunch of tests, most just to make money for the doctor and no help to you. Do a search on Drugs.com and you will see it truly is a generic drug. I picked Walgreens simply because they probably have more clot as they are located in a hospital. I did a search of Canadian drug stores, could spend a week and get no where. I am not sure if contacting your Representative would help, I never got a response in the past from any. Remember they are in the pocket of big business and they don't give a rats about you. I know, I tried in the past contacting our Representatives and our Governor, you know that guy that has warmed the chair in Olympia for 12 years, and now thinks he is ready for a bigger chair in DC. Don't waste your time with his office.

    After moving to Edmonds and seeing the positive reviews I was looking forward to being a customer…read moreof a local establishment. I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately I've been extremely disappointed. One of my meds they told me they do not have in stock and will not be ordering it. When I asked why not or if they'd ever order it they said not many of their patients request it. Other times when I've asked about it they said there is often a shortage because it's being over-prescribed which seems like the opposite issue then no one needing it. Still they never offered to carry it so I had to go to a separate pharmacy just for that med. My other meds became more expensive at Edmonds Pharmacy than the other pharmacies so I ended up transitioning them elsewhere. There is never a notification of meds being ready via text/phone or any other method so sometimes I'd go and they'd not have gotten the order or they had something waiting for me for a long time that I didnt know they filled. Today was the last straw though, I tested positive for Covid after having severe symptoms and wanted to get the prescription for Paxlovid filled nearby but when the provider contacted Edmonds Pharmacy they were told that they don't carry Paxlovid. My provider called me shocked and told me it was unbelievable they dont carry this of all things. Please think about the community you're serving and re-evaluate the decision to carry meds your customers are requesting.

    After dealing with Rite Aid for years, and having them make a large, costly error on my…read moreprescription (and not owning up to it), I switched over to Edmonds Family Pharmacy. There is a world of difference between these two pharmacies! Edmonds Family Pharmacy is always friendly, prompt and texts me about my prescription being ready, even before I've contacted them for a refill! They are on top of their game and I would give them ten stars, if possible! The other benefit is that I like supporting smaller local businesses. I hope that Edmonds Family Pharmacy continues to thrive in our ever-changing market!
