Worst pharmacy in Perris, I was going there from 2015-2017 and after the worst customer service, longest lines, I filed a complaint with corporate and got a call from the pharmacist who was very understanding and told me to ask for him if I ever came back but the last straw was coming back three times for an urgent prescription for my son which took 2 days to fulfill and 3 trips since then I've been going to Dominguez Pharmacy and I haven't had any issues. read more

Horrible service from pharmacy. Since they are the only pharmacy in Perris that is open this late take advantage and give very little effort to provide any decent help. Always have the robocall, with meds ready and most of the time never ready. read more

This pharmacy is great! However the retail side of the store is terrible! Waited in line to purchase a item that had a sign saying ask cashier for assistance. These items are kept behind the counter because of the value and possible theft. While I was waiting in line a person walked in and went to the cashier as she was helping someone and asked her to hold the item I wanted. It was only one left! I waited in line for 15 minutes for that item. I complained to no avail! Everyone should know that you don't have to wait when you can just go to the front of the line and tell them to hold it! What's the point of waiting in line!!! Steve the Supervisor should be fired! He just brushed me off as if my complaint wasn't valid! Will never set foot in this store again! read more

Again a bad encounter for Rite Aid and I. Why do I keep coming here, well it's their location. Really that's it. I'm in process of getting all my medications by mail now. Because not even their drive thru is easy. Longest wait time ever. The staff does not appear professional or well groomed. The medication racks are far from organized. The store itself was falling apart with the rain we had. They had a leaking ceiling. The pharmacy staff needs to stop looking so overwhelmed and overworked. Smiling a little might help and enjoying their profession. Cashiers upfront are pretty cool and fast. In and out most of the time. read more

Wow, the past reviews are correct. They don't pick up their phone at all. I'm a dentist trying to call in a 'script and can't get anyone to pick up. read more

This pharmacy is horrible, a employee by the name of Leslie was being so rude and disrespectful when my wife asked for help with finding something as if it's not her job to do so, really !!! read more

This store's main cashier Joy never fails to bring a smile to brighten everyone's day. Kudos to Rite Aid for retaining such a valuable employee. read more

Rite Aid - the entrance to rite aid pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Perris, California

See all

I would like to thank Valerie for the great service that she always offers me. She is one of the best employees in this Riteaid always with a smile on her face and welcomes everyone. I love to go to this store especially when she's there because all my transactions using coupons come up exactly as I expect and if something unexpected comes up she takes her time patiently to fix it . So to who ever that is out there wanting to have a good experience using coupons just visit this Riteaid and you'll feel welcome. Thank you again Valerie! read more

This Rite Aid is the worst Rite Aid. Always extremely busy and the people can be rude at times. Need to hire more people in the pharmacy. Somebody please come in here and train these people in customer service. read more

I really like this place now since they've renovated. I felt that the aisles were too cramped before, but now there's a little more room which is nice. The customer service at the registers and walking around the store is great. They're friendly and helpful. However, the customer service at the pharmacy leaves something to be desired. I know it can get very busy behind the pharmacy counter, but every time I've had to interact with this pharmacy I felt rushed or that I was just annoying them. That's weird because this is the only Rite Aid that I have had this sort of poor customer service experience. For that reason alone I chose to have my prescriptions filled elsewhere which is farther and slightly less convenient, but had the benefit of better customer service. Other than that, I like this place and you can find amazing deals on stuff after the various holidays. Compound that with your rewards program discount AND the monthly $5 off coupon and, well, I've gotten things that amounted to 90% off in the end. WOW! read more

Literally the worst pharmacy I have ever been to. Employees don't wear their masks properly and talk to customers like they're children. I was in line at the drive through pharmacy at 6:45 and because of how slow they work, did not get to the window until 7:02. I was met with a "we close at 7. Come back at 8" and I couldn't even say that I was in line before 7. The only reason I still come to this pharmacy is because they are the only one with a drive through in Perris and I am avoiding going in stores due to the pandemic. read more

The pharmacy dept is the WORST!!!! You will wait at least 30 minutes just to drop off OR pick up meds. They literally have 1-2 people working during the busiest hours. DO NOT GO HERE. Not friendly and always seem irritated here. read more

Ridiculous service in the pharmacy section. Over the phone is a lot worse. They keep you on hold forever. Then dont even wait if you have any more questions. Pathetic ass pharmacists. Everyone there is a joke. I called to see if both of my rx were ready to be picked up. Whoever answered the phone (06/19/19 FEMALE) said the usual. They are backed up in orders it should be ready in 20mins, I ask if both of them will be ready and she says ok bye. show up to the pharmacy and guess what!!! 1 is still pending. If the B%@$# would of waited to listen to my question I wouldn't of bother to show up until both were ready!!! read more

Reasons not to ever go here: 3 times my doctor's office left Rx on their phone recording system. 3 times I went to pick up Rx and they had no record of it. (One time I sat next to office worker when they called it in). The office right now is trying to call and speak directly to pharmacist and has been on hold over half an hour. read more

Love the location but this rite aide needs the right aides. Service is generally lousy. Hard to get any help on the phone. This rite aide is also horrible at getting refills going at all automated or live pharmacist. Hard to find any real help here period. Another issue they have is their telephone and customer service major fail I called there was put on hold sat for 15 minutes and just for the fun of it drove all the way down to Rite Aide mind you I live a good 12 miles away I got there I stood in line and it was quite a line in front of me I got up to the counter was still on hold!! read more

OMG...if I could give them zero stars I would. The pharmacy is a joke. The employees who work there are rude, unhelpful and unfriendly. If you hate your job and the customers service part of it FIND ANOTHER JOB! Good God people, it's not that hard to crack a smile or to be nice. They take hours upon hours to fill prescriptions and don't let you know when they're ready. And the drive-thru is insanely long wait times. The employees will totally ignore you if you're in the drive thru. It's disgusting how they are able to get away with it. You'd think being the only drive-thru pharmacy in town they'd be on it and have better service. I guess they know they are the only ones so they don't care. I have 3 kids, I don't want to walk all three of them into the store to pick up my prescriptions. I used to go to CVS in Lake Elsinore and it was quick and easy. When is Perris going to get with the program and let another, well run, pharmacy with a drive thru in town? read more

Luv rite aid the front end cashiers are the best ! There all so helpful an fast !:) keep up the good work guys

Decent prices people are nice. Parking is easy but the RX takes forever

They always take forever here at the pharmacy area. It's insane they only always have one employee working. I have to go pick up my daughters. Feels like I've been here forever ! I'd give them zero stars if I could read more

If I could give a zero I would! I wouldn't recommend you getting any prescriptions here. The people behind the counter could care less whether you have an emergency and need the medication right away. That is even after my doctor called it in 30 to 45 minutes before that. I was told an hour waitI have someone who is critically low and needs their medication there's no one waiting and they can't seem to bump us ahead so this person can get their meds. I would not recommend this place at all and I will never come here again! No compassionate people here! read more

I never had a problem here I have lived here for almost 12 years. I see it as a convenient store since we have a Walmart the service has always been good. Their ice is great and definitely one of the reason I frequent there often. read more

The pharmacy wait is always more than 30 minutes to pick up meds. There's always only one cashier and people lined down the aisle waiting. This is horrible customer service. Transferring medications to wal-mart. Fed up! read more

This place sucks. I'm forced to come here because of my insurance. The drive thru line is never less than 20 minutes. The pharmacy techs are rude and ignorant. It's either this damn place or drive to Menifee in traffic and back. That option is looking pretty good now read more

I came here and bought some nail growth kit and when i came home i opened it and it was so old. I opened the bottle and the brush was so hard and the growth factor was not even liquid anymore it was a solid. They can not sell things like that. Most likely not coming back. read more

Each time I return to pick up my medicine they make me wait. This is the 3rd time. Might I add I pick up my medicine 2 days after I ordered. Really? If I called and they said my medicine will be ready same day, and I return 48 hours after it's suppose to be done I'd assume the pharmacy would have it ready for pick up. read more

They deserve NO stars! I was there for a prescription. Waited 10 for my turn . Only one person in front and they were not being helped either. The lady at the counter never looked up to see if people were waiting . When it finally came to my turn she said she had to go to break then I can turn in my prescription! Are you kidding me! I said no one can do this? She said no. I needed my medicine so I sat and waited .5 min in i said screw this and took my business elsewhere! I will never return! read more

This place suck. Customer service is horrible n if a medication isn't covered they so t even bother to check for generic names that could cover. They have one person checking the drive thru n that same one for the pick up line inside. I hate coming here I'm changing pharmacy read more

Today I picked up two prescriptions from Rite Aid's pharmacy. This was my first time using their pharmacy and I had a wonderful experience! The pharmacy staff was super friendly, my prescriptions were ready and correct, and they even re-ran my RX through my insurance to make sure I wasn't overcharged. I'm seriously considering switching the rest of my prescriptions over to this location. It was a great no hassle experience! read more

the only "drug store" nearby and clean, well lit. I have kaiser so i can't comment on the pharmacy issues but all my other experiences have been very good. would love to see it go 24hrs open but i guess with walmart down the street they don't need to. read more

I was travelling from Riverside to San Diego and stopped by Rite Aid in Perris to buy some OTC products. The pharmacist helped me to find what I will need in my trip. Stuff there are friendly. Fast check out service. They offered me discount card and asked me I am up to date with immunizations. read more

I completely hate the service of the pharmacy here. They are rude and keep you on hold for more than an hour!!! This is ridiculous. I call and IF i get lucky enough to get a hold of one of the pharmacists, the response is always "Hi " or "Hi hold" and that's it. What kind of service is that???? That's not even being professional. I'm completely disappointed. They need to work on having better service. This was my last straw. Im changing pharmacy. read more

I can forgive this place for its messy shelves (I check out the cosemtics aisle, and it's all mixed up in there) because this is the only drugstore that had all the lipstick colors of a certain brand. I went all over my own town and neighboring towns (not Riverside) going from Walgreens to Rite Aids for these colors that I thought where discontinued because I couldn't find a trace in any store. But here they were, and I am so thankful I decided to mosey on in here while on my way to a job. It's not a terrible environment. I've been in Rite Aids with poorer cutomer service and creepy lighting. read more

Good luck trying to get someone to answer your calls at the pharmacy, and if you call the store part of rite aid and ask to be transferred to pharmacy it's the same thing, really frustrates me that I have to drive 10 miles just to ask if my prescription is ready, and if not wait about an hour. Gosh talk about poor customer service. read more

I'm sick, I get a call saying my medication is ready. I drive to the pharmacy the lady rings up the prescription and because it's a new medicine the pharmacists has to approve it only thing is the person is out to lunch and I have to wait a half hour for them to return. I'm sorry but there should be an other person who can approve medications while the pharmacist is out. All I want to do is go home and sleep. Horrible management. I should have grabbed the meds and ran. read more

Friendly staff n fast service just give them a 3 cause they have so many panhandlers standing by there door stocking u and asking u for money but otherwise great specially the ice cream read more

Worst Pharmacy ever. Drive-through is always littered with boxes, excessive wait time, get messages that an Rx is ready and it's not ready when I get there. Understaffed and under supplied on medications. This is not just a one time occurrence. This has happened more then a dozen times. I have complained several times but they have yet to fix the issues. read more

i could drone on and on about all my terrible experiences with this pharmacy but it's not even worth reading. they suck. they're rude. they don't know what they're talking about. do not expect to be satisfied here. read more

Worst rite aid I've been to!, bad customer service , understaff , their automatic refill program is not reliable , pharmacist don't call back if theirs a problem with medications . Current cancer patient depending on meds on time , had to find a better service at perris hills pharmacy read more

First off this store is way expensive. Good thing Super Wal-Mart is going to be opening up sometime in Aug/Sep 2015 since Wal-Mart is way cheaper by $2 for shampoo. The customer service is good IF you are NOT going to the pharmacy. Back in the fall of 2014 sometime I was called and told that my meds were ready. I only had one bottle. I got a phone call around 2:25pm that said they were ready. What I had done was I ran other errands. 1. I got in line at 2:35pm and there was a line of 8 people which made me wait an additional 30 minutes. So now here I am at the cashier at 3:05pm and the lady said ""They are not ready yet" to which I replied "I got a phone call that they were ready at 2:25pm, now it's 3:05pm and they are not ready?" The lady said to me "We are behind, go back in the end of the line and wait again". WHAT? Wait again? Standing? 2. For another 30 minutes behind 8 people? Again. I stood in line behind another 8 people (for a SECOND TIME for another 30 minutes). I got to the cashier again and AGAIN at 3:35pm another lady says "They are not ready yet". I was pissed by now. I told the second lady that I got called at 2:25pm and was told they were ready at 2:25pm. I said "That lady right there asked me to go to the back of the line since they were not ready at 3:05pm. This is the second time I've stood in line, both times for 30 minutes. I have stood for an hour waiting for you people when I could have gone home and took care of things. The lady said "I'm sorry, you don't have to stand in line again, I don't know why the other person asked you to go to the back of the line.Please wait here and when they are ready, I will call your name". I waited in the chair for an additional 25 minutes and they were ready at 3:40pm. I went to the drop off counter at 2pm. Why in the hell would their phone system give me a text saying my meds were ready at 2:25pm if they were behind by 90 minutes? I never go to this pharmacy in the afternoon. Never. They always have a line of at least 8 people if you go anytime after 1pm. I only go between 7am - 9am. I went today (6/20) at 10:45am and there were 2 people ahead of me. It took them 20 minutes to check out 2 people!!! There was only one cashier. Why in the world would they only have one cashier when it is clear to see that it takes more than 5 minutes to take care of one customer is beyond me. The other staff didn't want to help with cashiering. It is only after the line gets to be around 7-8 people that they begin to get it that there are a lot of people in line. read more
