I went to this Rite Aid today for the first time only because it was across the street from my dentist and I needed to get my antibiotics ASAP. I dropped off my prescription and the lady said it would be 30 minutes. GREAT! I walked around the store eating ice cream for 25 minutes before going to take a seat next to the pharmacy to wait the rest of the time quoted. I saw the two pharmacists help person after person, trying to clear out the line of people there to drop off. I waited another 15 minutes before going up to the pick up counter (I didn't want to have to wait standing up more than I needed to since I was in a lot of pain), when the lady comes up to help me she sees me and says, "SHOOT! Give me a few more minutes!", like she had forgotten all about me. Slightly annoyed I turned back around and sat in the chair I had just come from. I waited another 15 minutes, which I thought was generous, watching them help another 5 people at least, before going back up to the counter. The guy comes to help me this time, asking for my DOB. He punches it into the computer and then tells me there is no prescription for me. WHAT??? I tell him I dropped it off today with the other lady who was working. She tells him that it's still sitting there waiting to be counted. He turns to me and says, "Oh I'm working on it, it will be 20 minutes." Are you kidding me? 20 MORE minutes? I tell him I've already been waiting for nearly an hour and now it's going to take another 20 minutes to count out 20 pills? I'm pissed at this point. I go back to my chair and start downloading the yelp app. I'm going to post one of those reviews that start off with, "I'd give them no stars if that was an option," or "I'm only giving them 1 star because zero isn't an option" LOL but the service in the back of the store wasn't great so the app wasn't downloading. Anyways, fast forward 10 more minutes, I head up to the counter. The lady tells me she has it ready now and calls for the guy to give me a "consultation." I'm paying with my ATM card and I keep sliding it but it's not working, finally she tells me to put the chip side into the bottom, OK so I do. Then the guy comes up for this phony "consultation" where he just reads the side of the bottle, literally tells me to take 1 pill 4 times per day, as if I couldn't read that myself! Feel free to leave out the important stuff like if I'm able to drink while taking this medication etc! All while this is happening, the lady who is ringing me up (my ATM card is still inserted into the machine) starts pressing buttons on the payment screen, confirming if I'm the patient, and a few other consents that I was unable to catch since I was listening to this guy reading the pill bottle to me. In my opinion, nobody except me should ever be touching the customer payment screen except me - especially when 1) my ATM card is inserted, 2) you're giving my consent as a patient, removing all of their company liability, 3) I'm trying to pay attention to the guy reading the prescription bottle to me!! I would only suggest going to this pharmacy if you have some time to kill and want to deal with a couple of idiots who have no sense of customer service or time management. Or...want to get some ice cream while you wait. Otherwise, don't bother! read more
