They're really fast with things like vacation overrides for refills. Overall, the store is clean and well-stocked. It's definitely a lot better than other CVS/Walgreens locations in LA County. The only thing that is missing is the "Minute Clinic" but that's a decision from corporate - and maybe just not enough people were going? There is an urgent care just next door, so resources are available. Use the app for the best experience. Not only can you manage your prescriptions very conveniently, they give lots of coupons for your prescription and vaccination activity that allow you to buy a "splurge" item in the store every month or two for less than half price.

I hope I don't encounter her and her attitude again! Update: I called the store to speak with manager, she was very helpful & shared that the employee is from another store and that she will be having a talk with her. I don't want to stop going to my favorite cvs!

    Is it, or is it not the Pharmacists job, to brief you on new prescriptions and give any warnings…read more.. e.g. take with food, may cause diareah, ect? My usual pharmacy was out of a new med that I am just starting for my son (fail). Im not an idiot, but never once in my entire life have I taken a medication that needed to be diluted. Per the Doctor's instructions, give half a prescribed dose for a few days to slowly ramp up to full dose. OK cool. So Walgreens San Dimas is out of it (like always), so I ask if they will send it thru another local pharmacy and he says ok. They have it in Glendora. So I pull up and the most unfriendly Walgreens employee ever who answers the drive through window. Id give you her name but shes not wearing a name tag...just a black hijab. Confused looking, she pulls out the medicine and called over a Pharmacist. Also, hes unfriendly, and the pharmacist doesnt say one word to me, much less look up and make eye contact with me. His name was like "Thian" or something close, Asian guy. I drive off and for the first time ever give my son this half dose of Zoloft and he screams that its HORRIBLE. And im like... I had a whole discussion with the doc about making sure what he prescribed was a liquid. Hes 9 and everything is chewable...so he prescribes Zoloft liquid. I had a tiny bit on my finger so I decided to taste it and see if my son was accurate...well it was foul. It tasted like putting your tongue on a battery. He began seeming like he was hallucinating and hearing strange sounds being restless after taking this first dose. So I turned the lights on to comfort him and while I did that googled Zoloft for 9 yr old and symptoms and while I was there on Google, I happened to see on the internet that it was supposed to be administered diluted! OMG I checked the package and didnt see this indicated. Also the doses on the box do not match the dropper by 5 MLs. Like I said...im not an idiot...but I just administered a psychiatric drug to my son for the first time ever which tasted beyond horrible (because it was concetrated, then he reacted not well to the first dose. Please look up my receipt as I would like a call about this. No verbal instructions and this one line of info was found the next day buried half way down on the hand out and printed tiny on the back of the bottle label. If I have never diluted medicine...please tell me how I would have known to go find this tiny bit of info. Walgreens Glendora Pharmacy screwed up. I had to tell my son...that I could not see this tiny line and gave him an undiluted half dose on his first night. No wonder he was going bonkers and saying he never wanted to take it again, hearing noises and seeing things floating from the corner of his eye. I am lucky I found this tidbit on Google when I researched a reaction and this is also how I was warned about possible diarrhea. I wasn't. What is the Walgreens Pharmacists purpose? Why do the written label instructions have 2 different measurements? Which one is correct? Is it 1.5 mgs or 25 mls because the label doesnt match the dropper. How did this happen if 2 people check? Why is the warning printed so tiny and stuck on behind the label? Why is this one line buried so far down on the print out? Why didnt I get a verbal briefing?...oh by the way..this medicine is concentrated and needs diluted? Your son may get diareahh and no its not because of diareah lettuce parasite going around...its his new med??? Make it make sense?!?!? Dumfounded...but dont worried I called a medical person to explain what the hell happened here...and well...here I am on a Yelp rant...this is not acceptable.

    This Rite Aid is A-Okay. I like it enough to keep using it. It's certainly close by, so grabbing…read moreprescriptions monthly here just makes good sense. The only other pharmacy in the vicinity I can think of is Walmart, and I generally avoid going to Walmart if possible. It's way more messier at Walmart than at Rite Aid, among a handful of other reasons. Two other highlights that I enjoy are 1) the ice cream parlor section, where you can get ice cream on a cone to go, (although you can also definitely buy them by the tubs from the freezer, they run about $3.50 each), 2) the Amazon lockers! (Located near the pharmacy, towards the back.) I would order merchandise from Amazon from time to time, and I know better to have them delivered to my door. The theft rate of boxes left near front doors is insanely high as of late. People with no morals are just running rampant. Shipping your packages to these lockers, however, offers strong security. And just like picking up my rx, getting my parcels here at Rite Aid is so easy--love it. Downsides though? Efficiency--it's mostly lacking. No matter if you go to the pharmacy, or the front store, do not expect fast service. They are... all right. Passable. If you're in a hurry, chances are, you won't get out on time. There's usually a line built up, and they are pretty much understaffed all the time, so there is no measure on how to counteract the long queue. You just gotta... wait it out. The last time I tried to purchase a few containers of ice cream, I stood there for a full 10 minutes, because there is only one cashier working. (He's already working really hard--not his fault, per se.) And I only had 1 or 2 customers ahead of me! ...It didn't help they each purchased about 10-20 items. Holiday shopping, I suppose. And the parking lot. The horrible parking lot. The customers that come to this plaza/strip mall tend to be... let's just say... they be crazy drivers. Many of them will not obey the stop signs, some will speed down the road, or sometimes you'll get honked for absolutely nothing. It's irritating. These things happen often when the place gets crowded, so be forewarned. You have to be alert, both as a pedestrian and a (defensive) driver. Tip: Go early or go late when it's less busy; then it's not too bad. Weighing the pros against the cons, an appropriate 3-star rating, yes? Yeah, I do have to make sure I have plenty of time cushion whenever I choose to visit this location, but it's a small price to pay in the grand scheme of things, and I would likely keeping using Rite Aid to my advantage.

    Have been going to the pharmacy for 27 years. Never any issue…read more Today I had the misfortune of meeting a new cashier who is rather rude. While waiting she was loudly rude to the person in front of me, and I received similar treatment. When I got home my wife and daughter knew exactly who I was talking about. If you don't like your job, maybe find another one instead of treating customers this way? Dear Rite aid, thank you for all the years of reliable courteous service. I hope this anomaly is corrected soon, and I wish I didn't have to write this.
