We have been going here for years now and today it took a turn. My husband has been waiting on his medication, I called on Monday morning and spoke to the pharmacist named Alex I believe. He said he was going to order the medication so that we could have it before Saturday which is the day my husband has to take his medication. It's now Thursday and still no text letting us know status. So my husband calls and he's told that as of Friday last week they will no longer carry that medication so his best bet is to go to a CVS pharmacy. Why couldn't they have told me that when I called Monday or have someone call us to let us know whats going on??? So unprofessional! This isn't the 1st time either!!! Smh I suggest go somewhere else. Not here!!! read more

Travelled almost an hour away because this place had open slots for the covid vaccine. Like the other places that I had seen, this rite aid wasn't crowded at all. Pretty huge store with almost all the items you'd need to purchase. My vaccine process was also pretty quick with the people being the pharmacy being very warm and kind. For the first vaccine I had to submit my documents and they made me fill a form. Then the doctor/ nurse came out and got me injected within minutes. Four weeks later, for the second dose, I just had to present my vaccine record card & they again made me sign a form asking about my medical conditions and reactions from the 1st dose. That process was really quick too & I was feeling just fine. After both the doses, they ask you to wait for about 15 mins so that you don't have any immediate reactions (which I believe they would've helped incase happened). Overall great experience at this rite aid! Go get vaccinated! read more

Rite Aid - Pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Oakley, California

Pharmacy! Awesome people! So helpful!! I went to Oakley Rite Aid to pick up a new prescription. It was originally like 179.00 my insurance brought it down to 117.00 the wonderful pharmacy clerk said oh you don't want yo pay that! Let's try Good Rx. The prescription ended up being about 25.00. Anyone can use Good Rx. You often see cards to sign up at most pharmacy and doctors offices. Thank you Oakley Rite Aid Pharmacy team for all your extra efforts!!! read more

This is the worst pharmacy ever. I've basically gotten attitude from every pharmacist there. The fact that they try to make you feel stupid for asking for your prescription and if the dr didn't send it correctly " oh no , it's out of their hands to actually help the problem. I can only imagine how they treat people that need serious medication. I never write reviews but this truly pissed me off. Thanks to the older blonde woman trying to belittle me in front my kids!! They might as well just shut this place down. They are doing a disservice to the community. read more

Everything there slow as a snail Unorganized instead of calling my name asking for my identification they allowed me to sit and wait for 20 minutes. I had been in there for 20 minutes already waiting. Gave the young lady my id she stated they didn't need it. Sad service read more

They get 3 stars because the guy at the cashier was nice and helpful. But what he failed to do was scan this coupon. I could have saved $2.00. It may sound petty but it's the principal. We should get to use the coupon if it was offered. Tip: I used to work at a drugs store and I actually payed attention to coupons and things in our store add to make sure the customers were getting the bast deals and that they remember it so they can come back again. I could have went back to the store to get money back but it would take too much time to get $2.00 back and have to drive again so, it's was not worth it. So, I just hope that the cashiers pay attention next time. I really like going to my local drug stores but I'd I'm not going to be credited for coupons then I may not come back! And this is not the first time coupons were skip at the register!!! read more

Went in two days ago "the third" because i am the caregiver for my mom, she had her call and it's her doctor and the doctor 100/% approved her clonazapam and said nicely.. come back in 2 days and it will be ready. THis medicine HAS PHYSIXAL WITHDRAWL SYMPTOMS ID YOU STOP TAKING IT... fast forward to today, tuesday, i call in the morning and the same asian lady tells me they will be working on it soon... we'll that sounds bad.. i have to remind my CHILD to do rhinos, and. i'm suppose to remind the trained rite aid pharamajokere???!!! So i got the run down by looking at the computer screen. THEY FORGOT TO ORDER THE ANTI ANXIETY MEDICINE AKA clonazapam.... For some reason they decided lying about the authorization was the way to handle the situation instead of a simple sorry... FIRE EVERYONE WHO WORKE THIE PHARMACY THEY WRE BREAKING HIPA LAWS NOW AND LYING !! I have proof and i have been recording my interactions with your terrible pharmacy staff next stop ABC on your side and then BBB.... this rite aid has lied to make me feel stupid and then can't believe that someone gets upset... this is far from over... i've held off on this for 8 years NO MORE.. read more

Update: Alicia (sp.) is the Pharmacist manager who is unable to help, giving false information and blaming everything on corporate. I reached out to corporate and they responded with "her second dose appointment will be scheduled for her. Her second dose will be scheduled for 28 days after her first dose was administered. We will remind her of the appointment date and time with a phone call 2 days prior". Alicia says this is false information and will not be following this protocol. this is quite possibly the worst establishment I have ever come across. The employees who work in the Pharmacy are RUDE, incompetent and lack compassion. With so many negative reviews, you would think the store manager or store owner would step in and make some changes. My mom went in for her first COVID-19 Vac and they were anything but nice. This is a stressful, devastating and very confusing time so you would think these employees would be understanding. They would not book my mother her second appointment (told her to keep checking online, which we have and nothing is available), would not place her on a wait list (although other people were able to) and did not offer any means of assistance. Meanwhile, other rite aid's in the bay area are booking second appointments for people who have had the first dose (it also says on the website that the pharmacists will). My mom is now screwed for her second appointment, since they are so unwilling to help. Avoid this Rite Aid at all cost. read more

Rite Aid - On the WEBSITE it says they will schedule dose 2 but they actually wont at this location. rude employees. - Drugstores Near Me - Oakley, California

It's painful to see all these bad reviews. So here's the deal and what I've seen. With the influx of people coming to live here, the pandemic, shortages, and limited staff resources, it's been hard to see this pharmacy not get the credit they deserve. It's been a rough few years, and I am seeing it at multiple pharmacies in the area. People are moving here in droves (continued development of homes with no plans to add grocery stores/pharmacies in the vicinity that can keep up with new residents). It's expected for long wait times. Trust me, Walgreens in Brentwood has the same issue. However, my prescriptions are always correct, staff works hard and are still professional & polite (even when customers aren't the nicest). Couple of suggestions would be better hours. If they opened at 8am, that would be awesome. Also, more staff could be hired. Yes--it can be really frustrating to be jerked around due to logistics but maybe we need to bring this up to the City of Oakley. Instead of another storage unit facility, gas station, or fast food restaurant, we can add more smart businesses that meet the needs of our people. read more

Pharmacy told me my medicare did not cover my 3 months' medicine. I believe in them, then leave without any medicine. After 3 months of no med, medicare give me prescription again, which was sent to target. Target successfully gave me medicine for free. Target said Rite Aid pharmacy maybe did not have experience or did not even try. They need to claimed the primary insurance first, then claim the medicare, then medicare will cover the medicine. Hope the pharmacy department will read this and the future clients will be able to get their med. read more

They just tried to short me by 25%!!! I had a prescription refilled. Normally the pills come in a sealed bottled from the manufacturer with 60 pills in each bottle. 2 bottles, 60 pills in each is 120 pills. For some reason, they took the pills out of the bottles and put them in one of their own bottles. The bottle said there were 120 pills in it. When I asked the pharmacists why, they said it was for "convenience". When I counted out the pills, there were only 80 pills in the bottle. Literally within 3 minutes I was back at the pharmacist asking about it. The pharmacist tried to play it off that I had gotten the prescription some length of time before and was just coming back. He didn't even remember that he had talked to me 3 minutes before! Despite telling him I wanted my pills in the sealed bottle from the manufacturer and there is simply no reason for them to be opening the bottle, he started opening the bottle. I told him if he opened the bottles I would not take them. This was not an innocent mistake that someone miscounted by one or 2 pills. This was a deliberate attempt to cheat (aka steal) 25% of my pills and try to pass it off on me! You can bet I am reporting this to every agency that regulates pharmacies and pharmacists. read more

Shoutout to Sarah in the pharmacy department!!Service was quick and easy. It was my first time picking up medication and she made the process quick and easy. Thank you! read more

Rite Aid - The pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Oakley, California

Been trying for a week to call the pharmacy to make sure my meds are ready before driving down. Well, today, I decided to drive down and as I am standing in line calling the pharmacy, I am literally watching them ignore the phone. Horrific service read more

The folks in the pharmacy and the perfect combination of lazy and incompetent. Had a prescription sent in on a Wednesday, was told to come in an hour. Showed up 2 hours later, asked to take a seat, waited an hour, was then told prescription could not be filled that night and to come back the following day and it would be ready. Came back the following day, not ready. Waited 3 more days to come back, was asked to take seat, been an hour STILL NOT READY. These guys are a joke, never coming back here again. Wow... read more

ATROCIOUS pharmacy staff. If they don't agree or think you should have a refill, they will tell you when THEY will allow you a refill. Um...that's my doctors decision not yours. I REFUSE to deal with them. Lowest of the low. To the pharmacist: if you have different doses or something sent by the doctor that you DON'T understand, call the doctor or let me know so I can call the doctor myself! We need negative star options! read more

I was looking for an arm sling and found that rite aid has one in stock at Oakley location. I had the option to purchase online for $9.99 and curb-side pickup but decided to head into the store and get it. When checked out I was charge for $13.49 so I asked the cashier why there is a 35% price difference between online purchase with curb-side pickup and pay for it in store. The cashier simply replied: "I don't know". I ended up pay the store price as it's useless to say anything else. Seems like not a good way to attract customers to the store but promoting online shopping? read more

Pharmacy is very unorganized. Person who "helped" me at the pick-up window named Joan was very rude. Won't be back

Just moved to Oakley and it would've been very convenient to use this Pharmacy.. How ever I tried to call to see if my prescription was ready and talk to the pharmacist and it was impossible to get hold of anybody!! I tried half a dozen times throughout the day and nobody I mean nobody would come to the phone! Could Not get a hold of life persons to save my life!! No thank you will stay at Walgreens read more

The worst pharmacy in existence. Always a line out the door and taking forever to serve each customer. Even when there is no one in line, they still say I'll be with you in a minute. Most incompetent pharmacy staff ever. Get another pharmacist to override items when the main pharmacist is on break. What company does that? Having people wait 30 min for constant BS. read more

Terrible customer service in the pharmacy. Last night I went there to pick up my prescription and it took way too long to get their attention. When I finally got their attention, the lady said they're doing inventory and can't fill my prescription. What the hell??? What am I supposed to do it's 8:45 in the evening, too late to transfer my prescription now. ...Then when I said I'll pick it up in the morning the lady said it won't be ready until 11am. What the hell! I'll be at work, I can't get it until 8:00 tonight. I'm not using this pharmacy anymore. read more

I rushed here to get my son some medicine. They were suppose to close at 10pm on 5/23/2021 and they decided to close early, the staff would not open the door and the store manager (Erin was his name) was rude and came to the door and wouldn't open the doors. All he could tell me was the store was closed. I will never shop here again. read more

Review for PHARMACY: -CUSTOMER SERVICE needs improvement. A different customer and myself were waiting for at least 10 minutes before anyone came up to the counter. We could clearly see that you had 2 people in the back; what was the hold-up? At least acknowledge us and say that you will help us ASAP instead of ignoring us completely. -Why did you shake your head when I took out my CC to pay?? It led me to believe that your credit machine was broken or something so I proceeded to take out cash...so don't look at me at the end of the transaction and say "Oh, did you mean to pay by credit? Oops." Lady, you made me miss out on some cashback bonus points! -___- Seriously. Just go next door to Lucky. You'll get your prescriptions faster and at least you can do some grocery shopping while waiting. read more

Most of the time I received great experience at Rite Aid. Staffs are welcoming and professional. They always said hi when I walk in the store. Pharmacy line line (long or short) depends on the day and time you arrive. Usual, it is short at the end of the day. read more

This location is pretty much the only pharmacy in that area of Oakley now that Lucky's & Raleys closed theirs. The pharmacy staff at this location busts their butts and remain professional at all times. read more

Avoid their pharmacy like the plague, they have horrible customer service, they never answer the phone. I had to call the pharmacy 8 times until I finally got tired and called the store directly that I finally got some help. How hard is it to pick up the phone and say it'll be a one moment. It's been on multiple occasions that makes it an issue once or twice wouldn't have been an issue but almost every single time I call is what makes it unexceptionable. read more

My doctor faxed over my prescription to this Oakley location.. I used to go to Luckys but they're closed now. Tried calling them before I head down there.. this is no joke.. tried calling for a week but they never picked up.. went there after a week and they said there's no meds for me.. this pharmacy should be shut down because they don't care about their customers.Anyone want to start a petition? Btw went back for another prescription yesterday .. surprise "they didn't receive the prescription "shame on you Rite Aid!!!!! I called the phone no. For customer service and guess what nothing has changed!!!! Miss Pam F. ( business owner)! read more

This is the worse pharmacy ever! This ratings should be in the negatives! They are rude, not helpful and the line are always long! This place is a waste of time to go to. Never coming here again! read more

If I could give this place a 0 I would. I dread having to come pick up prescription due to how awful the customer service is. I called in my prescription well in advance and was told my prescription would be ready by 315. I surprisingly arriive to no line at 440 and told that my prescription is not ready and it would be 15mins. When I asked why it waasnt ready when I was told 315, she told me to go take a seat. I went next door to shop as I'm unwilling to give this establishment any more of my money. 155 mins I come back to a line 6 deep, 1 person helping pts. I can't stand this pharmacy and if this is what they consider service, then they should be shut down to put everyone out of their misery read more

This place has been here forever. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have your basic things here. It's a little pricey in my opinion. Service is a little faster here so very convenient. The place is very clean. If you need to grab and go you should stop by here. read more

I've been calling the pharmacy all morning and they just let the phone ring. I've been calling since yesterday and the same thing keeps happening. I've actually seen them in person just watch the phone ring. Really annoying and unprofessional. If only I could give 0 stars I would. Ridiculous ‍ read more

A friend of mine told me a product I was looking for wa s available at this Oakley store so I called and confirmed. I could not make it there so I ordered online and the ease could not have been better. The products arrived at my home on the date promised. I Tried previously at CVS and Bed Bath and Beyond but one was out of the product and the other delivered the wrong product. Great experience shopping there on line. I hope to go there in person for my next purchase. read more

Worst pharmacy. Don't expect your prescription on time. I would get a text saying my prescription would be filled on such and such day so i wait then call to see if ready only to find out nope they need to order it??? I had to way 2 more days like wouldn't you order it before the fill day? Also every time my Doctor would call and leave a VM they would either never check the VM when id call to check if they got it or they would lie say they did and to wait 2 hours and call back, i did only to find out the next person has no idea what im talking about. Finally left to wallgreens with no problems. read more

I made an appointment on September 22, 2022, for various vaccine shots. I came early for the appointment only to be told that they had a computer issue and could not dispense the shots. They didn't know when the problem could/would be resolved. I spoke to the manager to complain but she didn't appear to care. I find this location to lack quality service and knowledge of available products. This location may have the products you are looking for but beware they lack the professionalism and expertise that I or anyone should expect in a retail store. read more

Im so done with this pharmacy everyone there is so rude and im sick of being treated like garbage good bye im transferring

This is the absolute worst pharmacy I've ever encountered. From medicine out of stock to false calls about medications being ready for pick up. This is a terribly managed pharmacy and the attitude of the employees reflects this. The pharmacy staff are rude, crass, dismissive, and unhelpful. I watched from the line as customer after customer left the counter shaking their heads in frustration. Something is seriously wrong with the way this place is being run. read more

This place is awful. I've always been a rite aid user but once I moved to Oakley I realized it may be time to switch. The Main Street rite aid service is horrific and that's well known in Oakley. The wait is always so long, some of the staff are rude, short, and wrong about a lot of their info. (I must defend other staff who realize their mistake and try to help fix it). And almost every single time I drop off rx, when I come hours later to pick up it hasn't even been entered to be filled. It's infuriating. I'd advise no one come here. read more

I went in to buy one of the at home Covid test and they didn't have any but a very nice employee instructed me to call back at a certain hour because they were supposed to receive their shipment same day I said thank you and went on with my day. When I called later (as instructed) someone answered the phone had no clue about tests in general so she transferred me then another lady answered the phone extremely rudely didn't acknowledge me or anything simply picked up the phone and said we don't have any tests right now if we get them we put them out you need to look on your own bye. Terrible over the phone customer service. read more

This store seems to be kept stocked well. I use the pharmacy regularly. At some parts of the day the pickup line for prescriptions can take 15 minutes or more so if you're in a hurry it may be frustrating. The pharmacy clerk's always explain clearly any important informationregarding my prescriptions. If you call in refills you will usually get a automated reminder call that your prescription is ready. If you need your prescription sooner than that I highly suggest calling and talking to the pharmacist they'll usually give you a ETA for how soon you can pick it up. Pros: Store well stocked Front check out lane moves well Pharmacy is reliable Handicap parking directly in front Nice employees Seating for pharmacy waiting Savings card Cons: Odd layout Wait line for prescriptions may take longer then some want Homeless sometimes linger around the outside of store *Will update when necessary read more

This location's pharmacy service is TERRIBLE!!! They don't answer their phones promptly, and when they finally DO answer the phone, they don't say anything! They just take the phone off the hook and ignore you! I've tried yelling "HELLO??!!" into the phone, yelling, "ANSWER THE PHONE WHEN YOU PICK IT OFF THE HOOK!!" And, I've even resorted to ringing a VERY LOUD antique schoolbell right into the phone, hoping they would hear THAT, and pay attention. It did not work. I have better things to do with my time than wait on terminal hold and be ignored! If they are that damned busy, they need to hire more staff!! The only reason I go there at all, is because I'm on a fixed income, and they had the lowest prices. read more

This rite aid pharmacy is literally one of the worst I've been to. The people at the pharmacy literally take THE LONGEST time to help people & when you actually get to the window, they're not friendly and can be rude. There's one lady that is always at the register at the pharmacy and she's slower than a sloth. I hate coming here for my prescriptions because of the bad and slow service. There's even been times I've gotten multiple texts that my prescription is ready but when I get there to pick it up, they say it's not ready - and when I tell them I've gotten texts it's ready, they still say it's not. My fiancé has even gone here for prescriptions only for them to say they have to order his RX and it should be in the next week - but when we go in to pick it up the next week, they say it needs to be ordered. Ummm you said that last time and for me to come the next week so why's it not here?! They are very contradicting. FIND A DIFFERENT PLACE TO GET YOUR PRESCRIPTIONS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT THE BEST PLACE TO DO THAT!!! read more
