I find the pharmacy here to be attentive and quick. The constant text messages reminding me if I…read morewant to renew a prescription are very annoying, and you can't turn them off to say only status for prescriptions you've put in for. But the place itself in the help themselves is very good.

I had an extremely frustrating experience with the Walgreens pharmacy in ELmwood Park, NJ. I am…read moredealing with severe pain from a tooth infection, and my prescription was sent by a physician who also practices pain management. Instead of simply addressing whether the prescription could be filled, I received a phone call with what I felt were excessive and unreasonable questions about my prescriptions and medical treatment. Unfortunately, this isn't my first experience like this with Walgreens. I previously had a similar problem at the Walgreens on Main ave CLifton, NJ. It felt as though every possible obstacle was being created to avoid filling a legitimate prescription rather than trying to help a patient who was in significant pain. The entire experience left me extremely uncomfortable and frustrated with how these pharmacies handle certain medications., TO TOP THIS OFF, THEY DID NOT GIVE ME MY MEDICATIONS. I also have serious concerns about why patients are being put through this process and believe Walgreens management should review these practices closely. I am not accusing any particular employee of wrongdoing without evidence, but the experience was concerning enough that I believe the handling and accountability surrounding these medications deserves scrutiny. Based on my experiences, I would strongly recommend considering another pharmacy.

You people are rude, entitled, ignorant,and impatient. Its a busy pharmacy. Dont complain about the…read moreemployees giving you "long wait times" because everyone from you, your mom, dog, and baby got there first and are ahead of you in line and come first in the filling process. When they have to make doctor calls, they are at liberty of the doctor. If they dont answer, if they have to call back, if theyre not in the office, or purely if the DOCTOR isnt doing their job and giving refills or prior auths. Drive thru always gets told 30 minutes to an hour because the people in the store, waiting, watching the employees work take priority. Ordering medicine and how long it takes to arrive is on the shipping company, NOT the pharmacy. And getting angry at the employees because you received an automated phone call that is telling you something is ready but its actually not, is a dick move. Employees dont make AUTOMATED calls.Complain to corporate for that issue. Get over yourselves. Walgreens is a great pharmacy and most people are down right insulting to employees when they dont get their way exactly when and how they want it.

PROS - open till 11pm…read more CONS I bought medicine that did not give me any relief. I thought that at least being it was a big corporation they had a decent return policy or exchange. Once something is opened you can't return it. Should have bought the same thing at Wholefoods where store credit can buy you groceries.

I wish I could say this Walgreens in Passaic just had a bad day, but after multiple experiences it…read morefeels more like a business model built around doing the absolute minimum possible. Recently I needed a prescription filled before traveling overseas. The insurance approval only required three simple things: the date I leave, when I return, and confirmation that the travel is international. Instead of calling the insurance company like a pharmacy normally would, they canceled the order and told me to call the insurance myself. So apparently customers are now expected to do the pharmacy's administrative work. That is some next-level laziness. This is not the first issue either. In the past they claimed they gave me a 90-day supply of 800mg ibuprofen. Anyone who has ever seen those horse tablets knows a 30-day supply barely fits in the skinny bottle they gave me. I brought the bottle back and asked them to explain the math. Suddenly they kept the bottle and quietly gave me the correct medication. Interesting how that works. Another past problem is electronic prescriptions. My doctor sends them directly, but Walgreens still refuses to fill them until I confirm first. Why? Because corporate apparently tracks how many prescriptions get filled but never picked up, and the employees get dinged for it. That might be Walgreens' internal problem, but it should not be dumped on the customer. Maybe I am old school, but when I get a job to do I just do the job. I do it right so nobody has to come back and question it later. Somewhere along the way that basic pride in doing the work seems to have disappeared. If Walgreens wants customers to do half the job for them, maybe they should start handing out employee badges with the prescriptions.
