It's really sad that the pharmacy and the store are combined because if the rating was just the store, I'd give it a 5. The workers are lovely, and the store is always stocked and clean.
This rating is for the pharmacy, which I would give a zero star if I could. So I'll make the overall rate of 2 since I primarily went here for the pharmacy. About a year ago,
I had extensive inside abdominal surgery, and my dr warned me, pharmacies usually do not have such high doses of liquid narcotics on hand, so you will have to go there and make sure they order it before surgery. I went to this pharmacy, and the Asian female pharmacist treated me like a complete addict, indirectly questioning the need, reason, dose, and type of pain medication that was ordered. I found this super offensive. Mind you, I do not have a history of ordering/ being prescribed any narcotics from any pharmacy in the whole US except for 10 years ago when I got my wisdom teeth pulled. She needs to know her place. They obviously didn't have what I needed, so she tried to pawn my order to the Alvarado street rite aid knowing full well they would not have it either. She never even offered to order it. I demanded she order it. It's like, do your job. You were so concerned 10 minutes ago why I needed such a high dose of narcotics. About a week later,
I went to pick it up and the white male pharmacist was lovely, making sure that I took the doses accurately because it was such a high dose.
But what really irritates me, is I'm 31 and have thyroid disease really bad. If I do not get my synthroid, because my thyroid does not produce enough hormones, I feel like garbage after about three days (it's a daily hormone replacement pill). So it's really important that I get it. I never got notices when it was filled. I was on automatic refill with text alert. Nothing. That's ok, I'm sure cvs or Walgreens will refill my prescriptions right and send notice. read more
