They even had security working there. It makes me wonder where they are during the night time. I even used the pharmacy recently. I got my prescription without any issues and quickly.

I can understand exercising conscientious objection if you work at a private practice but the CVS Minute Clinic is not that. There was not another provider on staff who could administer Depo for me. Asserting her religious objection to fulfilling her professional obligation negatively impacted my health and access to care. As a medical provider, it is her duty to do no harm yet her refusal to administer Depo caused harm. Medical providers have a responsibility to respect patient autonomy. I have no qualms with her personal beliefs but allowing her beliefs to interfere with her professional duties, as a CVS employee, limits access to care. She should find alternative employment as she expected me to find alternative care.

But to our surprise, we gotta call an hour early to personally. Let us know that my photos were ready when I got there. I told her how at Michael's they wanted to charge me if the size wasn't right but she said it will be perfect. And if it's not bring it back and I will make sure it's done right and I won't charge you anything. Do not worry. You know what? For the first time in the last 2 weeks planning this funeral.

I had a frustrating experience with the Walgreens I originally used. The staff consistently seemed…read moreunwilling to assist, especially when I called about a specific face wash that I know is covered by my insurance. Despite its $13-14 price tag and over-the-counter status, my insurance has always covered it, yet they insisted otherwise without offering real help. In contrast, when I contacted the Walgreens on E McDowell Rd, the difference was immediate. Although they were out of stock, they explained that their usual supplier no longer carries the product and offered to order it from a new provider. That level of effort and transparency was exactly what I needed. Because of this, I've transferred all my prescriptions to the E McDowell location. They even call to notify you if a prescription will be delayed--something the previous location never did. Their professionalism and customer care are a breath of fresh air. (I spoke with Alyssa at the Scottsdale location)

Student pharmacist belittled her and made her repeat herself multiple times, when the poor woman had a simple question (and I, not being racist, easily understood her questions). Wednesday refill request confirmed via text. Called literally a dozen times and never got a human to answer a single time. No way to know if it was actually filled, so waited FOUR DAYS before coming to pick it up. Student pharmacist hollered at me "what are you here for" (without my being able to see her due to their partitions) so I assumed she was speaking to someone else. Basic conversation (not to mention customer service) etiquette suggests she could have moved a foot over to make eye contact and make it obvious she was trying to speak to me. Other CVS locations around the country will lower the partitions when it's close to their lunch time. Not here. Instead, student pharmacist just barked to other customers "we're closed!" With no explanation. Obviously we all get that you deserve (legally and as humans!) a lunch break. But you don't have to be blatantly rude. I arrived 1:25. Student pharmacist retorted with attitude "no, you got here 1 minute before lunch time". Um... no I didn't. You were wrong. You made me wait for the pharmacist to fix YOUR error, not to mention why in 4 days have you not filled a Rx that was ready for refill, which I can't confirm when you don't answer the phone 12 times over 4 days. I'm a prescriber and guess what? Won't be coming back nor will I ever send patients to CVS or Target

I have been a customer of this Walgreens and its pharmacy since moving to the area in 2016. Over…read morethe years, it has consistently served as a valuable resource for the community. I have appreciated the opportunity to build genuine relationships with the staff, who have always been courteous, attentive, and committed to making each visit as pleasant as possible. My experiences with the pharmacy had been equally positive. The pharmacists were consistently kind, knowledgeable, and empathetic; always willing to take the time to address concerns with care and professionalism. In particular, Debbie's presence exemplified these qualities, and her recent retirement marks a noticeable loss. Unfortunately, my experience since her departure has been disappointing. During a recent visit, I interacted with Vincent, whose approach felt impersonal and dismissive. I was not acknowledged until I initiated contact at the window, and even after a pharmacy technician attempted to assist me, my concerns did not seem to be meaningfully addressed. Rather than demonstrating a willingness to help, Vincent conveyed a transactional attitude and suggested that pharmacists may simply choose how they wish to engage with patients; an approach that, in this case, felt lacking in both attentiveness and care. As a result of this experience, I will now be taking additional steps to ensure a more positive interaction in the future, including confirming staff availability before visiting. It is unfortunate to see such a contrast from the high standard of service I had come to expect from this location.

My cats love it, and it occasionally goes on sale. The aisles are very narrow, so it's hard to fit more than one or two people, but it wasn't contested. For you're on the go looking for little items that you don't necessarily want to visit a bigger store for, this is a good place to stop.
