We stopped here for bottled water after a doc appointment. Nice staff but this location is in a busy crossing and has lots of homelessness outside of the store, as well as, in the area. The homeless weren't bothering anyone but, it's just sad to see, especially in this heat. Don't be afraid to offer to get them water or to give them money for water, whichever you're comfy with. They were really nice and grateful! It's free to be nice and a bottle of water is under$2.00. Js ‍ The staff were all really nice humans. Plenty of parking on location! read more

Never go to this Walgreens, customer service HORRIBLE, Can't even answer the phone while people are literally sitting there doing nothing in the pharmacy, and I can't even begin to explain how horribly rude these employees are acting so entitled like they're better then everybody. read more

Terrible place to visit. Customer Service is horrible. They sold me stale tobacco products and refuse to refund. All the tobacco products in the store are no good so it could not be exchanged. The receipt did not state the items could not be returned. Nor did the cashier Della state it was a final sale for the product. ASK THE MANAGER FOR ASSISTANCE BY SHOWING PRINTED PROOF TOBACCO PRODUCTS ARE FINALE SALE! Management could not return my money for an item that was stale and not as expected-she stated the register will not allow. This is not fair to the consumer and I need the corporate office to get involved. read more

I see Walgreens has 2.5 stars now. That's too many. I just visited Walgreens in Fountain hills for a simple task: Get passport photos taken. A young man, about 17 didn't want to take photos, because my business asked for photos in two shirts. He started asking me why I needed this and questioned the legality. Really? He asked me why I needed them. A Sheriff was there getting donuts or some anxiety meds, and he began to eavesdrop. The young man kept going up the the cop. This is a simple task - take the photos. The "shift lead", an incompetent, rude man named "Dan", came up to question me. He asked why THE SHERRIFF WAS PRESENT. How the hell do I know why the cop was at the register, eavesdropping. The manager suggested the cop was there to follow me, and he was making sure I was not a problem. The cop was not associated with me. The manager continued on his abusive rant, and suggested he would call the sheriff. I asked what for? Bad customer service and rude treatment? Dan said "I have four witnesses who will say whatever we want". He did suggest I go to CVS. I did just that. I told my story to the pleasant woman there, and she took my photos. It was VERY BUSY at CVS. Walgreens was empty except for the numerous idle employees, and the transient cop looking for drugs. CVS reminded me that Walgreens stock was under 12. I looked. They collapsed and were taken private. The PE firm should eliminate the Fountain Hills store and let CVS and Safeway take the few remaining customers they have. I see why the company collapsed. Horrible employees, horrible management, threatening, lazy and disorganized. They are demoralized and rude. Thankfully, I found CVS. read more

Della is incredible. I was having a really rough morning upon checkout and Della not only helped me get what I needed, but she was remarkably kind about it. read more

Very respectful and helpful pharmacy techs. My backpack got stolen while I was out of town which had my seizure meds in it & the staff got me hooked up really quick & got me another prescription read more

I visited this location to ship a return via Fedex. There were some issues along the way (due to the retailer) but the staff were exceedingly patient and helpful. 5/5 service. read more

This is a review is directly reflective towards the staff from 05/07/2023 at 9:45pm. I have no other opinions of this location. When a paying customer requests to use the bathroom you should consider how degrading it is to tell them the bathroom is closed. Reconsider when they repeat to you the urgency of this request. Humans should be allowed the decency of being able to use a toilet. At no time did I represent anything other than a paying customer that requested the use of a bathroom. When your manager discusses this with you I hope you understand it's not personal because you are being paid. I did not request to come into your home and use your fuzzy toilet seat. I asked to use a toilet in a corporate store, where I spent money, and you work for. I wouldn't have even wasted a single square. Not one square wasted. Have a good day. read more

It is no wonder pharmacies are going out of business. I placed an online order for a cough medicine, it was to be delivered at 5 and it is now 7:20. When I ordered it I told them they could make substitutions if needed (different flavor, size). Spending 20 minutes on the phone I learned they had cancelled it versus making a substitution AND had not told me it was cancelled. Going to drag my sick rear end down to another drug store. read more

If you need to have a prescription filled, go elsewhere unless you have all of the time in the world to waste. Dropped off a script. The lady left me hanging at the drive through for 15 minutes, then told me it would be ready in an hour. I went back two and a half hours later and it still wasn't filled. Seriously???? Unacceptable. read more

I went to the cashier to withdraw money from my lyft debit card as I usually do with s cashier and the cashier said they only do cash back and that I can use the ATM I said oh okay I went to other Walgreens and they did it. The employee goes well that's them not us and makes a face. I gave her no energy I won't be returning to this Walgreens, who has time for negative energy read more

Asked about a product in stock & didn't even bother to put me on hold to look or ask jst immediately said nope out of stock. Terrible customer service. read more

If I could give negative stars I would. The pharmacy is incompetent and gave my prescription to another person and left me with no solutions other than being forced to drive to another store to get the prescription they gave away. Basically, if you have serious medications that need to be filled go somewhere else because they could careless if you don't receive or take your medication on time and will give it to someone else! :) read more

Worst customer service ever. Pharmacy is so slow. Manager Christine is unbelievably rude and unhelpful.

My bf was trying to get tested at this place for COVID. The lady who was trying to help him was the most rude person. This lady called him stupid and retarded multiple times!!!! She shouldn't even be saying the R word. The fact that this lady was talking to him like this was completely uncalled for. She should be fired in my opinion. There are way better people who deserve a job than this lady. My bf had accidentally put a one letter typo on his last name and that's why this lady decided to be rude. Over one letter. Maybe she was having a bad day or maybe she had a stick up her ass but that doesn't mean you have the right to be calling CUSTOMERS stupid. read more

The staff is friendly and there are some good deals at times. The pharmacy is a little confusing, the staff in there doesn't seem to communicate well. I switched to a different birth control and they kept giving me the old perscription too until I pointed it out. Regular walgreens, has most everything you would want/need from a convenience store. read more

I go here to get my prescriptions filled and also to shop for cosmetics and stuff occasionally. I've never had a problem with the pharmacy. The drive thru line can take a while at times, so I try to go during the off-peak hours. When I don't have to wait for other people in line I can drive up, get my prescription, and be done in less than 5 minutes. and sometimes they have treats for my dog! read more

I bought a cell phone and calling card at 3:14 PM at 8469 E McDonald Dr. I got it home and tried to put the battery in it but could not figure out how. I went back to the store around 5:30 PM. I asked for help or a refund. I was passed around the store for around 10 minutes when I finally saw a manager at the prescription counter. He said, follow me and I did as he went up front, and started to give me a refund. I pointed out that there was a calling card and he said that Walgreens NEVER refunds any type of card. He said that I should of been informed at the time of purchase, but I was not. Things got heated and He threatened to call the police if I was not out of there is 5 minutes. He gave me the address of this web site , and here I am now, with NO refund and NO functional phone. P.S. I have some bad video of the last part of the encounter with the manager. read more

This was one of the best Walgreens I have been to! The staff and night crew was so helpful and willing to go the extra mile. All the shelves were stocked and the store looked clean. This Walgreens does a very good job at training their employees to be courteous or they just have really good manners. This should be a model store for examples to other Walgreens read more

I use this Walgreens solely for prescriptions, but I'm officially on the hunt for another pharmacy or switching to mail order. I don't find the staff particularly friendly at this location or particularly helpful. I had a problem with my insurance accepting my prescription once, and they didn't bother to tell me until I got there. By far the worst part is the wait time. The drive thru is consistently a ridiculous wait. Out of the 8 times I've gone, only once did I wait less than 10 minutes. If you can't staff enough people to cover the drive thru, then just don't have one! Last night, I was the only car in the drive thru. The pharmacist said he would be with me in a few minutes. 10 minutes later, I was still waiting with no further or update or acknowledgement. I finally gave up and left and now have to make a second trip tonight. Going inside doesn't really make it that much faster either. It's really a choice of do you want to wait in your car or stand in line in the store? read more

The evening shift pharmacy manager is a jerk. They only had a partial quantity of my prescription available so he gave that to me and told me to come back when I was ready for the rest. I came back a week and a half later and he told me that I had to pay my extremely high co-pay again because I waited too long to come back. I told him that there was no time frame given or I would've come back for the rest already. He argued with me and said that he had informed me of that (LIAR!!!!!). He refused to override the charge for a prescription that I'd already paid for. He told me if I had a problem I could call 1800-Walgreens. I did just that. I spoke with someone in customer service who said that someone would contact me within 48 hours. I received a call the next day saying that my prescription was ready and the fee was being waived. Jerk. read more

This pharmacy is a joke. The amount of times I schedule my prescription, wait an extra day just to make sure they get it done, only to drive over and be told it's not ready. No joke, I swear this has happened at least 8 times. I switched pharmacies, but had to switch back after a move. What a mistake! They always have an excuse, but they NEVER relay it to me via email or phone (like the delayed email they ALWAYS send right after I drive away without my prescription), they just pretend it's being processed and send an email letting me know the ETA, and let me drive up to then explain I can't have my medication that I kind of need. What's sad is it's obvious they don't care and that they kind of hope your experience will hinder you from returning, a really sad way to run a pharmacy as we are depending on our medications. -- Also, called today and had to correct them because they had my prescription the entire time. I swear this is the laziest and most unreliable pharmacy I've ever encountered, like it's REALLY not that hard. read more

CVS is so much better when it comes to filling prescriptions. This place takes longer. And they forget about you. CVS will call out your name, here its "Oh you are still waiting?" :-| Pros - the app is great, Walgreens photo is amazing and helps my scrap bookign needs! And it has all of my girly necessities, from make up to shampoo, to lotion. Awesome. read more

This pharmacy is ridiculous. They can't keep the app updated with the correct medication and you are not able to fill any scheduled medications any earlier then the exact day that they were filled before (ex 30 day supply can only be picked up on day 30 of the next month). I understand that abuse is a huge issue these days; however, people have lives and it's not always possible to pick that medication up that day. I think it would be reasonable to allow a patient to pick up their medications one or two days early. Even if the patient was regularly doing that, it would not allow enough excess medication to do much harm. I do not appreciate feeling like a criminal when I go to pick up my medication. These pharmacies have taken their policing role way too far. Also the pharmacy staff is very rude. read more

This Walgreens is by far the best one I have ever been too! It's is always so clean and fully stocked! I work for the hospital which is down the street and I stop by this Walgreens occasionally to pick up some water or snacks. They greet you as soon as you walk in never fails even if I've been there multiple times they make you feel welcomed each time. The sweet elderly lady is AMAZING! She is the reason as to why I keep going back! She gets to know you and is so very sweet while at check out. She is an example of a role model! No matter what kind of day I had/have she is there to put a smile on your face and that one encounter will make such a difference in your day! She is the face of Walgreens and the employee everyone from everywhere should aspire to be like. Thank you for always having a smile on your face and for being so kind!! read more

So, went and got a Covid test at Walgreens here in Tempe,AZ and they sent my samples to the lab with no name on the container. I lost two day and $400 at work because of that and Walgreens Corporate says because it's was a free test it's not their fault and will not reimburse needs for lost wages. Even blamed the lab, the lab verified Walgreens screwed up. Time to sue! What horrible customer service and irresponsibility on their part. read more

Honestly this pharmacy is the the worst I've ever dealt with. You will have a problem every time

Clean store in with stocked shelves. Great deals on Halloween items. Our cashier was friendly and kept the line moving fast. We were in and out. read more

Walgreens - the front of the store - Drugstores Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Though the area and people hanging around outside are a little shady, it's actually a pretty nice store. It's clean and has always had what I needed. I see a few complaints about the pharmacy but I've never had an issue with their staff. They are usually quite helpful for me. read more

Literally the worst Walgreens I've ever dealt with. Pharmacy staff is ever-changing and consistently lazy. I've seen some pretty ridiculous interactions between the pharmacists/techs and some shady people due to the area so I can somewhat understand them being a bit jaded, but that doesn't excuse their performance especially when it comes to us normal people who just happen to live close by and want to use a Walgreens for our prescriptions. I am looking into switching to CVS today. read more

Standard Walgreens minus the slowest drive-thru pharmacy ever and the amount of beggars you'll encounter.

Most helpful and friendly pharmacy staff that I've ever encountered. The drive thru can be slow, and watch out for Boxcar Willie out in the parking lot. read more

Patrick is a D bag. Couldn't have been more rude, and we come here all the time. Absolutely brutal customer service

Top #1 worst Walgreens in Arizona. Was told they never received prescription and said to call in 30 minutes to check when it goes through. Called the drs to let them know they never received a prescription. Was told by the doctor it was ready and it had been ready to go. So I leave as soon as I found out and when I pull up they tell me it's not ready and that they just received it. This has happened more than once. This will be the Last time I come. read more

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE HERE! I've used the pharmacy (drive through at night) and store during the day and both were excellent experiences. By accident I left an item behind in the store after a purchase and the employees, especially the manager and assistant managers, were all VERY helpful in keeping it safe for me until I was able to retrieve it. read more

They hired this new guy at the front register and good god I would drive 10 miles out of my way to not get this guy. He calls the manager over the speaker every 2 minutes, has no knowledge of anything can't count change to save his life and he's a rude douche bag I have no idea why anyone could ever hire this guy. He will hold up a line for a good 20 minutes to get through 3 people so save yourself time and go to another Walgreens! read more

Before I write my experience today, I must say that this is my store for my RXs, make-up, emergency needs, etc. Today, mmh, TODAY ! Was an exercise in keeping my words in check. Onto my experience, a cashier rung up my two items I bought after getting my RXs and proceeded to say "How far are you walking? Short or far? Do you need these items double bagged? You know what I'll just double bag them for you." Maybe he was trying to be nice but instead his Caucasian self came off as prejudiced. read more

I primarily use the pharmacy at this Walgreens. The pharmacy staff is always kind and extremely helpful. They go above and beyond to ensure accuracy and are very agile when filling prescriptions. read more

Run from this place. I have Walgreens for years. No more. The prescriptions are not filled when promised. They lost one that took me forever to get. Scary situation. How well are you prescriptions being properly filled if they can't the paper work right. Horrible place. read more

I have been going to this Walgreens for over 2 years now. I started to utilize them because I had a lot of medications to be filled through chemotherapy and radiation treatment. I have repeatedly been treated disrespectfully by the staff but I kept going here for convenience. I finally reached my limit and switched pharmacies to a competitor across the street. What a difference! I will NEVER go back here for prescription refills. I had staff roll their eyes at me, huff at me, lie to me, and pretty much just treat me horribly. I will say that I was filling controlled medication sometimes but ummm, hello...cancer. Not once did they look up my profile before treating me like total crap. Same circumstance on the phone too. I put in a formal complaint but nothing changed. If you are filling prescriptions and have any questions or want anything done proactively with your doctor about your prescription, go elsewhere. The customer service at the pharmacy is just horrible. read more
