If I could give zero stars for the pharmacy staff, I would. The person I spoke with at this time…read more(who I found out name is Christina) was incredibly rude and spoke to me in a condescending and degrading manner. Rather than helping, she responded with remarks like "Do you even know what pharmacy you're calling?" and "I don't know what you're talking about." This is unacceptable behavior for someone working in healthcare, where clear communication and professionalism should be the standard. Patients deserve respect when calling about their medications. Management seriously needs to evaluate their staff's communication and customer service. The worst communication

Central pharmacy just caused me a major inconvenience im handicapped and live in Richmond ca. rite…read moredown the street from the pharmacy but my doctor is in Oakland. once a month I get on Bart and go to my appointment in Oakland from Richmond wich also cost me money so since I wouldn't have to go back and forth to Oakland to pick up my medication my doctor had it sent to central but all of a sudden I get a pharmacist that think she knows better than my doctor and tells me I don't need my medication mind you she doesn't know me from a can of paint doesn't know my medical history or anything about me but decides she wants to go on a power trip and has my meds sent all the way back to highland if this isn't illegal it should be a pharmacist over riding a doctor's prescription for nothing more than a power grab. what gives central pharmacy the rite to play with people's medication and people's lives this is unbelievable that they have these type of people working for them if you want to be a doctor go back to school but as long as your just working in the pharmacy then do the job your hired to do and that job is not to power trip on patients that need there meds now I have to figure out how im going to get all the way back to Oakland to grab my meds they could have just gave me up the street

FINAL UPDATE: 4/18/2026…read more I HAVE TRANSFERRED ALL MY PRESCRIPTIONS TO AMAZON PHARMACY. Last week, the pharmacy drive-up window was closed, no one in the pharmacy would answer the phone, a medication refill I ordered was canceled without explanation (happened before). I had my doctor send my scripts to Amazon Pharmacy, and they were delivered to my door in TWO DAYS. This is not an ad for Amazon Pharmacy. I mention this because of the comparative efficiency. Imagine not being able to get life-saving medication because your pharmacy is ignoring calls and canceling medication orders with no explanation. I'm done with this place.

There are only two employees running the entire front area, and apparently, that's not enough to get the case opened in a reasonable time. It's disappointing because this store is just a mile from my house, but it's changed so much. The shelves are often bare, and the overall experience has gone downhill. If theft or "shrinkage" is such a big issue, why not have a security guard or another solution in place? Something really needs to be done to get this CVS back on track.
