New to Ridgefield, and Walgreens seems the best to go to w their easy parking lot (forget CVS, so busy and one parking lot shared between many stores so it's hard to park there). The pharmacists at Walgreens are nice but they are so slow. I attempted going three times before I finally got through (first three times had lines w at least 20 people). When I did get through the order wasn't ready. It had been three days since the doctor sent it. And it still wasn't ready. So they told me they'd get it ready in 5 mins. See, right there they should have just told me the truth. Manage my expectations. Right? It took an hour before they got it ready. Apparently the pharmacist had to give three people a vaccine before approving and putting together my stuff. OH!! And they didn't even get it right. Was picking up for my husband and he said it wasn't even complete. They only gave me one part of my order. I asked them what I could do to make it easier the next time I come over. They admitted that it was a shortage of staff on their part. Not sure why Walgreens doesn't do anything about it. But then again wasn't it Walgreens that fired employees dying the lock down? Parking makes this place seem convenient. But need to rethink relying on this place. read more

Pharmacy closes before 6 pm. Outside window closes even earlier. It is sooo disappointing. Management does not even try to fix their problems. read more

All medical services, pharmacies included, have had a rough time during Covid. They worked through a pandemic, dealt with frustrated customers, and seemed to have huge staff turnovers. So many difficult things to deal with. So I have compassion for what's been happening with Walgreens. I was frustrated when I needed an urgent prescription for a child sick with an earache and they weren't open to fill it on a Saturday. They had always been open before. But, on my last few visits, the person handling the drive through, (I really hate to say her name-) has been just so utterly unhelpful I don't see how I can continue there. It's more then being unfriendly, it's like she hates the job and customers so much-and you can tell. read more

My kids had their 2nd COVID vaccines scheduled at the same time as their first ones here. First one occurred smoothly, but after receiving reminders and confirmation for the second one we arrived to find out that the pharmacy was closed at 4pm. New store hours that were implemented just 2 days before? It would have been nice to receive a phone call or email today so we didn't have to show up to a completely closed off shop. No one to talk to. No instructions on how to reschedule. read more

Have just began using this pharmacy due to change in insurance. Comparing to my other pharmacy, the people here aren't rude but they're not friendly. It's so slow and one woman has a very hard time finding prescriptions on the computer. It took her more than five minutes and she kept telling me it wasn't there and I told her many times that my texts said it's ready. Someone else had to show her that it was there. I'm hoping to see an improvement or I will need to switch read more

Employee couldn't even look up from or stop using his phone to check me out. Line of people behind me... purchase took 5 times longer than it should have... Customer service is dead. read more

Incredibly inefficient vaccination process, waited 85 minutes and watched later arriving patients taken ahead of us....no communications. Pressing the issue finally getting resolved. Undermanned, long lines, no system...stay away, get it someplace else! read more

Awful. My doctor called in an urgent prescription yesterday. Went to pick up medicine today, Tuesday, at 2 p m, and the pharmacy department was closed for the day. Other customers were there to pick up their prescriptions too. And got what I got. Nothing. They were angry and disappointed too. Asked for help. Walgreens employees said it was against the law to go into the pharmacy so couldn't or wouldn't help. Hopefully the pharmacy will be open tomorrow. I called ahead yesterday to confirm prescription would be ready today and after 23+ minutes of being ON HOLD hung up. This drugstore whimsically closing the pharmacy for the day is a disservice to the Ridgefield community's health and well being. It happened several times before to my wife. My family will not shop again at Walgreens -- there are nearby alternatives -- and I am going to share this experience with friends and neighbors. Walgreens built their business based on their pharmacies high pricing which patients under the stress of illness pay. Their pharmacies lose business now due to online pharmacies' lower prices. They will lose much much more. read more

This is the worse pharmacy in the area! They are unethical and can leave without notification- closing at 3pm with posted hours until 7pm. Nothing is filled on time. No notification on the phone when trying to call. Leaves you waiting for over an hour. Horrible business practice. read more

The pharmacy is a disaster. Understaffed, disorganized, unreasonably long wait times, and unreliable in filling prescriptions within the time frame promised. Most disturbing is the the lack of respect for patient confidentiality. read more

terrible service, pharmacy run poorly, impossible to get a vaccine or shot, always out of stock, prescriptions rarely ready in timely manner. read more

Bad pharmacy ! Understaffed and clueless most of the time, can't ever get it right! What a shame !

I switched to Walgreens from CVS in Ridgefield because the service was so bad at CVS! What a mistake I made, the Walgreens in Ridgefield is disgraceful! The hours are terrible 10:00-6:00 Monday- Friday so make sure you don't have a job if you need to use this pharmacy. The lines are insanely long and slow. The staff are all under qualified, (although pleasant) They never once have gotten my prescription correct! It is outrageous that there is not a reliable pharmacy in Ridgefield! But by far Walgreens is the worst. read more

Pharmacy is habitually understaffed, and then the Rxs aren't filled days after they are prescribed. Long lines. And now they close at 4pm and on weekends. read more

The Ridgefield Walgreens Pharmacy is the worst!!! You can hardly understand what they are saying and they don't care!! I called the Danbury store on Main after being so frustrated with Ridgefield and they were so helpful!! He was apologizing for my bad experience and had my prescriptions ready in 10 min. read more

Word to the wise, do NOT get your disposables developed here. They've lost not one but two rolls of my film. They're extremely negligent, disorganized and USELESS. read more

I have noticed a big positive change over the last 4 months at this store! The people are friendly and genuine and seem to work as a team. They are better stocked on most items than the CVS nearby, especially lately! Hoping they don't get discovered by too many people (this review won't help that!) my go to drug store! read more

Went into the store last night to grab a couple of things before running home for the night, when I start to hear some arguing between two employees. One guy is obnoxiously raising his voice at the other about something, and going on about the fact that he has been there since early in the morning and hates that he has to work twice as hard as him. He got louder and louder and started banging things and ramming carts into walls. The other employee never fought back to his belittling of him. Eventually I heard some young girl yell at him to stop it, and he went into the back room. I could still hear him yelling in the back even though the other guy was still up front. SO unprofessional and uncomfortable in front of customers! read more
