Walgreens

How can you be at the corner of happy and healthy, yet candy and soda are always on sale? So guess that it is both happy from the sugar high and then health from pushing the drugs.
What did I learn today? Sick care is alive and well at the corner of happy and healthy.

got a friendly greeting from the cashier (unusual for a walgreens). many items on sale, also unlike other walgreens.
buys: amazon teas (2/​$ 1), various flavors.
drips:
–short checkout, friendly staff, deals, so 3.5 stars.

This review is for their pharmacy. For some reason they can’t figure their job out lately at all. I was told four separate times my prescription was ready, had a call from their recording three times saying it was ready & it WASN’T. Then once I finally picked it up I got a call the next day saying it was ready.
A couple days later I went to pick up another one for my son that the Dr faxed over while we were at the office. I waited an hour before going over. It still wasn’t ready, I was told they just received it & it’d be 15 mins. I waited 45 mins & went back. They then told me again they just got the fax & it’d be another 15 mins. I said I was going to sit in the drive thru & wait & low & behold there the medication was 5 mins later!

I have to update because of the pharmacy. I came here because of the flu my son caught. This Walgreens has a drive thru. I felt coming here was the best decision when you have a highly contagious child with you.
No matter how bad Id love to spread it around Walmart. I was really trying to to be conscious of others.
Since we were new here we had to submitt our info which took longer. I had to submitt everything to the pharmacist then come back a few hours later. We came right before lunch. They close down for lunch which added to our wait time.
Once our medical info was inputted our prescription went through fine. There were no issues at all. I did it all from the comfort of my own vehicle. No one had to be near my infected kid, so that’s a plus.

This is bar none the worst Walgreens I’ve ever experienced. They’ve made numerous mistakes on me (i.e. sending authorization forms to a doctor I no longer see, waiting a week after sending an authorization form to contact the doctor again, not contacting me when my prescriptions are availableetc.) but today takes the cake. I find out that, due to my mother making complaints against them (all being legitimate), they’ll no longer provide service to me. Mind you, the woman who made this decision (their manager… Corinne?) is one I’ve never spoken to in my life and perhaps this manager would be better equipped if she was more receptive towards those complaints since disavowing them will likely result in additional grievances (from other customers).
Debbie’s the only saving grace to this pharmacy.

I just moved back to the area, and I went into this Walgreens to try to have my prescription transferred over and filled in this pharmacy. This is after I went into another Walgreens and they were out and wouldn’t get it in for at least 4 days. I’m a procrastinator, I waited until my bottle was empty and then some, but I needed my prescription filled sooner rather than later. My 5 star rating comes from the excellent customer service provided by the woman working the pharmacy. This pharmacy was out too (apparently it’s a rare drug) but she got on the computer and checked at all of the surrounding Walgreens, she called the Walgreens that had it in stock just to make sure it was really there. She called it over so I wouldn’t have to wait when I got there. She also did this without seeming annoyed and seemed like she genuinely wanted to help me. This is rare to find in most stores these days.

If it is possible to give this pharmacy a «minus» rating, I would! Service totally SUCKS. They NEVER call when your prescription is ready, they don’t fill prescriptions promptly… they use outdated info all the time. I cannot believe they are still in business! They are AWFUL and, one of these days, they are going to screw up ROYALLY and really hurt someone. Can’t say enough bad about this pharmacy… all I can say is «good luck» getting the correct prescription in a timely fashion. So very unprofessional!

This Walgreens is literally across the street from where I live and that makes up for a quick stop to get something that I need up to make up, household items, baby items or to pick up my medications. The drive thru pharmacy is always great, for those late nights pick ups, raining days, cold days or when you are just lazy to park your car and get out and pick them up yourself lol. Their items are always well stocked and organized. Every time I go in there for something, I see employees organizing or repricing inventory, which is perfect if you ever have question or need something out of a locked self.
The only thing I wish they had more of was clearance items. Walgreens tends to be a bit more expensive than Walmart or Target but I only go here if I need what I need asap and/​or don’t have time to run to another store. Staff is pretty nice, the store is clean, well stocked, they even stay open until midnight during the month of December which was pretty cool and different for a tiny little town of Martinez, where everything closes early and only a few places stay open late during December.

Pharmacy had a fast check in and out process. They had my prescription ready within 10 minutes. Friendly staff with good tips and advice.

I happen to think the people working in the pharmacy are very rude. Third time I have done a prescription here in the last four months and I am not pleased every time. They seem to be very short with me and act like I don’t matter. I think any other pharmacy around here is much better. The worst I have delt with is Debbie or something like that, someone as short and rude as her should not have a job working with customer service. Although I live right next door and it is convenient for me, I would much rather travel a distance then deal with them again.

A convenient stop for those who attend Martinez Adult Ed or for those who work in the surrounding area. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Quick and professional, pharmacy that is.

Drive-​thru pharmacy. We arrived 3^rd in line 15 minutes before they were to close. Fast, friendly service.

One of the best Walgreens ever.

Great drugstore. Seemingly always open when I need it. Always have what I need in stock and I can find it. Shelves are neat and organized most of the time. Pharmacy is above average.
