This Lab Corp seemed popular as I saw a steady stream of patients arriving and/or waiting for their turn. I heard one of the phlebotomists tell someone that they were totally booked for today, so it's best to make an appointment online ahead of time. I'll be back near year.

The issue was that the men's was out of order, but absolutely no one was looking out for who was coming in and out of the woman's restroom. With plenty of staff around different aisles stocking, you would think one would be kept in the back portion of the store where this could have evolved into a disaster. What's more, the whole layout of this particular CVS speaks ancient times, and I'm not talking about any antiquity or something memorable. All in all it wasn't a bad trip, and most people will get the products that they're looking for if you know you found them here before. But good luck if you're ever in need of a restaurant, and let's face it, with the money they're charging nowadays for their product, the customer has every right to be able to expect to be able to use a restroom and not have to the speedy Gonzales if it's an emergency and they need to use the opposing genders facility.

This pharmacy just provided me with the most unprofessional, disrespectful and disgusting customer…read moreservice experience of my life. The pharmacist has a nasty attitude and absolutely zero people skills. I was told my medication would be filled today and called to confirm. She scolded me for not knowing there was a shortage (even though I confirmed two days prior that they were be able to fill it). She spoke to me like I was absolutely deranged and crazy for expecting my medication to be filled on time. When I asked if I could get a partial refill, so I don't have to go without my medication (it's now the weekend and my doctor isn't in office to write a new prescription), she made me feel like an idiot for wasting her time when she could be counting the inventory.

While I'm over here thinking about ten things at once, he's steady, patient, and cool as ever -- the kind of calm that makes you slow down and breathe a little. He doesn't rush you, doesn't make you feel like a bother, and he always makes sure whatever you're printing comes out right. In a world where good customer service feels like a disappearing art, Chris shows up with kindness, professionalism, and a whole lot of grace. Walgreens, hold on to that man.

(Shopped 10/31/23 TU @ 3:30pm): That's right... they aided in my parking dilemma, but I did buy…read moresomething! I happened across Rite Aid's El Segundo's Grand Ave. location because I couldn't find parking in the area to meet some friends next door at The Standard Station Sports Bar & Grill, and my Catholic guilt got the better of me. I always made it a habit whenever I parked at a business I initially had no intention of visiting, I would go inside and make a small purchase as a sort of "payment" for parking on their premises. Now that my conscience was cleared, I quickly reflected on the company's recent bankruptcy filing news. The company that took over Thrifty's decades ago was now on its seemingly last legs. I've had fond memories of both companies, so this visit was kind of bittersweet. Was I all right with this particular location before its demise!? PURCHASE Resse's Pretzels Miniature Cups 9.9oz Bag ($5.99): I was a fan of all the yummy sweets throughout the Reese's brand, so when I saw this in the nearly-empty Halloween candy section, I grabbed it because it sounded good and it was the last one so it looked sad there all by itself. Once I finally tore this bag open and shared it with my friends, each tiny cup was packed with crunchy pretzel pieces covered with smooth peanut butter and delectable chocolate. It was as good as expected - yummy! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=LVCD_bwXBXM5UDwLiU72KA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw SERVICE Because I had no idea what I was going to purchase before I entered, there was no need for any customer assistance. As I whizzed through the store, I came to the candy aisle and my decision was made. I quickly went to the self-checkout counter, paid, and I was out the door in minutes. I saw one employee serving Thrifty's Ice Cream, one cashier, and one other employee stocking the shelves. All was good! PARKING (FREE) Located within the Grand Park Plaza, they were on their own standalone corner and had their own private lot with a ton of spots - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A medium-sized building that was clean and organized inside with easy directions and labels for each section along with spacious aisles. The pharmacy was at the very back, the refrigerated and frozen coolers also along the back and side walls, the ice cream counter up front close to the registers, and a surprisingly assorted well-stocked liquor section. A decent amount of natural lighting came through the front glass windows and doors while plenty of soul-sucking fluorescent electric ceiling lights covered the rest. I didn't recall seeing any TVs but Top-40 music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=xxKABnVWyX0xms7iHFED6A&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL El Segundo's Grand Ave. Rite Aid location was perfectly fine for my needs although probably wholly not theirs. On my quick casing of the joint, everything was kept clean, organized, and what you'd expect from any other Rite Aid if you've ever been in one. And, they still had Thrifty's Ice Cream, so buy it now while you could! Honestly, I had no idea how long this location would be around since the bankruptcy, so I wished them the best. The prices may be a touch higher due to convenience and economies, and you may not find all the brands out on the market but possibly lesser-known ones. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $6.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

Every single staff member I've interacted with has been pleasant, professional, and genuinely helpful. What really stood out to me is their communication. Whenever I call, they actually answer and if they miss the call, they call back. I cannot even explain how rare that feels these days. At my previous CVS, I would be on hold forever and never receive a callback. Special shoutout to the pharmacist Ariel (I hope I'm spelling her name correctly). She went above and beyond to help me and took the time to make sure my needs were met. You can tell she truly cares about patients. People are usually quick to leave reviews only when something goes wrong, and I don't think that's fair. Hard work, kindness, and excellent service deserve to be recognized too, not just the bad experiences. This team absolutely deserves the praise.

The positive pros... the staff are always friendly. It's in a Target, so if you have to wait for a prescription to get filled, you can always kill time to window shop or actually shop here. You can multi-task errands.

LISTEN... I typically refrain from writing reviews, and these days, I approach reviews with EXTREME caution. However, when a company surpasses ALL others in their field, particularly in terms of OUTSTANDING customer service, I find myself compelled to share my experience. Emad and his exceptional team have been instrumental in assisting me in ways that go beyond description, involving sensitive and private information. Having visited major pharmacies like CVS, RiteAid, Walgreens, as well as private ones, I can attest that the personalized service and the sense of genuine welcome and recognition are unparalleled in private and boutique pharmacies. When I initially chose St. Antony's due to its proximity, I soon realized that their commitment to excellence sets them apart. The key distinction, in my opinion, lies in the exceptional relationship they build with their customers--offering understanding and assistance when others fall short, going the extra mile to provide care and comfort. This is why I wholeheartedly recommend St. Antony's pharmacy, and it prompted me to create a Yelp account solely for this review. They are truly remarkable. For any inquiries, feel free to contact me directly at (310) 308-6685. I'm Matt. read more

I would like to give Emad Michael ten++++++++ stars. I also LOVE this pharmacy because St. Antony Pharmacy provides personalized, excellent customer service that is impossible to find these days. After being quoted $380+ to fill an EpiPen prescription I was determined to find a generic (we have a policy that only covers generic meds). I tried all the usual suspects...Target, CVS, Walgreens, Rite-Aid and Costco. All told me there was NO generic and quoted me $380-675 for the prescription. Well, I did my research and found there IS a generic. I spoke with Lisa at Raindrop Pharmacy (who also gets a huge shout out) and she told me she did not carry the generic, but thought St. Antony might. I called Emad and he had the prescription filled before we hung up the phone!!! And, he used a $0 Co-pay card so my out-of-pocket was...$0!!!!!!! Read all the other 5 star reviews I agree with all of them. What a gem!!!! read more

I have had chronic pain for many, many years. I have used all the major chain's and more than a few independents and even then, NO ONE will ever come CLOSE to the SUPERIOR level of attention, generosity, caring, communication, trust, etc. that you will get from this pharmacy. They are the absolute BEST pharmacy for over 40 miles from either Redondo Beach or El Segundo. PERIOD. This pharmacy has almost literally saved my life by being able to get me my medications and making sure I can stay as healthy and pain-free as they can make me. The pharmacist there is PERFECT! He even wished me a happy birthday which is coming up 2 days. I have NEVER gotten even REMOTELY this level of service from a pharmacy. I don't care if you have to drive an hour to get there, this pharmacy and it's staff are WORTH IT!!! read more
