    This CVS pharmacy is the worst I have ever dealt with. They are slow and incompetent. I would do…read moreanything not to go there. They never have what you need and I have been waiting for 2 prescriptions for over 2 weeks. Best bet is to go to Placerville CVS

    I have been using both the pharmacy and store for 11 years now. Absolutely stellar customer…read moreservice every single time. Sadly, I am a huge customer of the pharmacy on so many meds keeping me alive. I've been through 2 very serious surgeries in the past couple of years and I cannot possibly recommend the entire pharmacy staff enough, especially the head pharmacist Maureen. they are all unbelievably understaffed and overworked, yet.....so amazingly find a way to be accomodating, efficient, and come thru for me when needed. I love being signed up for home delivery of both in-store items or prescriptions! Delivery convenience is such a luxury to have when you are not able to easily get around. And how do they all maintain such a positive friendly outlook when so slammed with work day in and day out unrelenting being short staffed and so overworked? Really heroic examples we could all emulate. Being frugal due to so many medical bills, I find the store prices very reasonable and shop their sales. Some items usually stay out of stock, like my 2% milk not being a grocery store, but there are so many groceries to choose from. There is a grocery store closeby to do a food shop but I seldom can't find what I need in all departments so well stocked while there. Everyone is extremely courteous and kind I wouldn't even consider shopping elsewhere. This review took 11 years in the making.

    Better than Longs. Nothing more for me to say about it…read more Be sure to check out the store brand vitamins and OTC meds!

    After multiple negative experiences with this particular pharmacy, I decided I needed to let others…read moreknow so they can avoid a similar experience. Pharmacy associates are not helpful or knowledgeable about the process of filling prescriptions which I believe is the primary reason for going there in the first place. It just seems like no one really cares about their job. Here's why you should avoid this pharmacy at all costs... -Cannot refill an in-stock prescription during a shopping visit. Understandable if they're busy, but I was the only customer waiting for a refill and was told they would not be able to get 30 pills counted and put in a bottle within an hour...Wow! 3 of the other Safeway locations in the valley I've been to previously usually offer to do this within 15-20 minutes. I know this is a smaller Safeway compared to their other locations and the overall pace of things is a bit slower up here in Pollock Pines, but I don't think that means they cannot offer decent customer service. -I've called in to have specific prescriptions filled for my wife and they fill the wrong one or forget which one we've asked and provide a refill on the wrong medication. I catch this before paying for the items, but I always have to double check that what they provide me with is what I actually asked for. -Provided specific prescription information, including all physician info and was told by the pharmacy tech that they would contact the physician and I should hear back from the pharmacy within a couple of days. A week later I called in and was told by a different pharmacy tech that I was misinformed by the person I spoke with the prior week and that since it was a new prescription it was my responsibility to contact the physician and have the information sent over. I have no problem contacting the physician and asking them to send over the info, but since I was specifically told they would take care of this, I was a little disappointed that I had to wait a week to find out that nothing was done. I would hate to see what would happen if someone needed a life-saving medication...hope you have a few weeks to wait! At this point, we've given up on this pharmacy. We still love the grocery store, but avoid doing any prescriptions or asking for any sort of advice on any over-the-counter medications as they clearly don't want to be helpful. Great grocery store, horrible pharmacy!
