Today I had a very trying experience getting my wife's prescription refilled at CVS. The issue was…read morethat the doctor sent the prescription to Tucson where my wife was last week and because of flight schedules and other things she didn't get it there. So we had it transferred to our CVS here in Carlsbad and that's where the drama started. CVS has a new system or you can't call and just talk to someone you have to leave a message and they will call you back brand new system. so thanks to two superstar employees Nadia and Hassan who took an incredible amount of time and dedication of what they do to make this work today. I cannot say enough good things about this Pharmacy today and how they took care of a problem that wasn't theirs. All I can say from my wife and I is thank you you went above and beyond.

I pretty much never leave negative reviews, but be warned, this place is awful. Save yourself the headache (and some money) and send your prescriptions to express scripts.

She really takes the time to explain why Tru Leaf Lab does a better CBD oil. I just purchased the sleep support CBD oil because I have heard really good things about it. Aria, who answers the phone and sits at the front is the sweetest soul. She took her time explaining the benefits to me and reviewed how to best administer it. Well done Price Rite Pharmacy- you really know how to treat your customers. P.S. make sure you review how best to administer CBD oil. You've gotta let it sit u see your tongue. Do not just swallow it!

I joked with her that it was a part of my early Easter basket of goodies. I've already tried some of the travel sized samples. :-) I came in particularly for nail supplies ie clippers and cuticle products. Low n behold the super nice attendant unlocked the product for me and then she informed me of the BOGO deal happening for anything in that section. Lo and behold I had already had another item that I was getting from there! The section was neat and tidy too. Always a bonus. So I got the BOGO deal, used my CVS rewards cash and left spending less than 4 dollars on probably $30 worth of product if regular priced. All three staffers that we encountered this day were super nice and they each went above and beyond to be helpful.

I have moved to a different county and I had been out of town for 3 weeks so I finally got down here today, the 2nd. I get here and they tell me they've put my medication back on the shelf and the pharmacist continues to tell me "there's no way someone told you this." Essentially calling me a liar. I had to pay out of pocket for the meds because my insurance is now expired, I'm on Kaiser which goes thru their own pharmacy. The pharmacist is rude, condescending, impatient and lack empathy. People aren't usually picking up Meds because they are healthy people. The meds o take can seriously impact someone's life if they aren't taken and should be treated as such.

Honestly, this CVS pharmacy is disgustingly dirty, but what really prompted me to leave this review…read morewas the unprofessionalism and lack of communication. I received a phone call stating that my prescription was ready for pickup. When I arrived at the pharmacy, I was told they couldn't find me in their system. So why was I contacted and told my prescription was ready? This was extremely frustrating and a complete waste of my time. The entire experience was very unprofessional and poorly handled.

It honestly seems counterintuitive to leave a review being that their rating is so low and the…read morestandards there are just awful. And I don't necessarily mean from a service standpoint because I feel great empathy for the employees. It's the company's lack of care for the customer experience overall. From pharmacy to convenience store, they are terrible. Overpriced, out of stock, under trained, unreliable, inconsistent, and do not care. Selling bad gift cards, damaged goods, expired convenience grabs like milk (if they have it in stock) and expired health care and wellness vitamins and supplements. It's deplorable! You never know if your item was merchandised correctly so always have to triple check the size and brand against the signage, can't trust that it is going to ring up at the correct price. They're the only drive thru pharmacy left since Walgreens and Rite-Aid both closed but it is hit or miss whether it's open or not. The phone system is terrible, literally impossible to speak directly with a human and they have the worst inventory control ever. Can't keep 4x6 photo paper in stock for their very busy 1 hour photo business... More importantly, they're out of prescription medication all the time too. How irresponsible to be out of stock on life-saving prescriptions, especially for patients who have regularly monthly refills that are easily tracked by a POS system. They should never be out of stock unless all manufacturers are out of stock but it happens all of the time. Planning systems easily predict buying needs to near perfection, evading loss and keeping stores stocked even in the event of an influx of use. Why aren't patients needs top priority? And why is the restock time unpredictable and unreliable and often requiring the patient to follow up via a phone system that doesn't work?! As one of the largest Distributors of drugs, having bought up so much market share why aren't they being held accountable to responsible health care? Gelsons was amazing... closed. Vons was great.... Closed I really don't like anything CVS because of how much joy & time I know they're going to suck from me every time. They even make shopping for greeting cards miserable. (Horrible selection and disorganized) Hard Pass!

You cannot beat North Coast Medical Pharmacy for all your prescription needs…read more I was in a very serious car accident 11 years ago and Justin caught medications that were prescribed to me that would have interacted with a current medication I was on.

Always took me back when I walked in and he remembered my full name. On top of that, the technicians and other pharmacists are always so nice and helpful. Its a perfect example of a locally owned, "moms and pops" business I continue to use over the connivence of the "big box stores". Any problems, they will call you. Wait times are far less than CVS or the pharmacies in the grocery stores. Moira is also awesome and answered all my questions. I prioritize efficiency in my life and they are a rare example of being all aspects - efficient, knowledgeable, friendly, and so welcoming.

I hate to say this but I trust her advice and guidance more than I do many doctors I've had over the years. Her honesty and integrity are unmatched.

Thank you Anu!
