Same employees, but now everything royally sucks all the time. Always leaving costumers with out medication. That way I never show up with my meds not ready to pick up. I've been on this shit since I was 17 - look in your records assholes! I just want you to know that you're not alone in how you feel regarding our pharmacy, however, if you would like to forward your feelings onto the company heads, send email to walgreens.com or ask the store manager for the number to the district office of your state. Consultants working on a corporate report were told to drop safety complaints. Its definitely illegal to deny people breaks. The app is useless! I went to college and realized relatively quickly Walgreens wasnt going to be my career so I insisted on the break. Yes, pharmacists know what the job entails. By I always had to wait in line 10-15 minutes to get my prescription because some guy was yelling at the pharmacist or they were just really slammed.

You could have stolen the pad and be writing your own scripts. Walgreens has crossed that line for me several times. I stood in line for 1/2 an hour only to be told I should take a seat as it was going to be about a 90 min wait! This comment was posted by a verified customer. But I am also furious because I paid for this medicine (all 10 doses) 10 days ago, and now I see I was cheated out of my money. EVERY month my prescription is delayed. They have never made a mistake in filling any of my meds. Florida's nine-member board, for instance, includes a lawyer for CVS and a director of pharmacy affairs at Walgreens. The pharmacy techs can never find anyones prescription. Is it me or do other people have the same problem? This is the first time Ive ever spoken publicly. Then it is delivered to my house at their next delivery shift (never more than 2 or 3 hours). Walgreens is corporate sleeze 100%. I called about system messages about a delay on a fill on their app. But thats not always the case. Do it on the last hr of your shift. Your go-to for Pharmacy, Health & Wellness and Photo products. In the past Walgreen's has: given the prescription for someone else, handed me paperwork for another customer, given me the wrong dosage by two and insisted all I had to do was cut it in half and could not understand that half of 50mg does not equal half of 15mg. Use to go to Walgreens for Prescriptions but Since the fools decided to dump Tri Care They gave me a wrong prescription that I didn't order, and three days later they called me for the one I ordered. I also got tired of the mile long lines. I've been working for the company since June. But I think increasingly, physicians are pushing off all cross-checking of drug interactions on the pharmacists, rather than doing the work themselves, as they should. I see that my Walgreens is the exception though. I learned photo through the books, internet and help line. With that being said, Walgreens is just a terrible place to get your meds. Thats 3 visits for one prescription. Today, I was at a big box and saw it was otc. I hate filling them. Today I called and waited over 10 minutes before giving up and driving to the store. I always see customers shaking their heads with disbelief, and I ask myself why do we go through walgreens for prescription refills? MD's themselves should be very well-versed on what their patients are taking, and understand thoroughly what each new prescription means to the patient. Walgreens confirmed to USA TODAY it launched the pilot with Cooler Screens in 2019, and the technology is currently available in less than 700 stores. Being polite and even a little sunshiny goes a long way when you need special favors. Bitch. Instead of losing out on having two people work photo for 1-2 weeks, they lose thousands more when the new person breaks something, has photo business non-existent for 2-3 days and the cost of having a technician come out PLUS the new parts. Id find another job. Empty shelves, fewer selections, iffy prescrips. Create an account to follow your favorite communities and start taking part in conversations. Pharmacy Hours: M-F 9am-1:30pm, 2pm-9pm, Sa 9am-1:30pm, 2pm-6pm, Su 10am-1:30pm, 2pm-6pm Photos Hours Mon: 8am - 10pm I am very much done with Walgreens and will not give them another chance after so many tries. Much cheaper. They want their customers to be happy, so they know they need to keep lots of employees. If the doctor prescribes antibiotics for 10 days, then that's what I assume we need to do. Hmmmmmmm. Stood forever in a line that didn't move, trying not to pass out, all the while listening to a true-blue BITCH of a pharmacy clerk YELLING at elderly ppl for waiting till last minute to call in for their refills. She ran the photo lab better than anyone I have ever seen. All the pharmacy staff provide good service and are friendly. I just moved to the area and changed my prescriptions to go to Walgreens Pharmacy Store #6898, 3701 N KINGS HWY, Myrtle Beach, S.C. 29577. Not worth it. I always had nothing bad to say about Walgreen's, but familiarity does breed contempt. I hope you are feeling better. my wife died of esophageal cancer last year and i had similar experiences with Walgreens. Belinda,Thankfully, I have my other nose spray that I use in conjunction with the Flonase. Good luck. They must have minium wage pharmacist as none of them ever stays! People's lives are in jeopardy. I did get a rain check. They tell him he needs doctor authorization first. I am calling my doctor to see if there is another service I could use, but I doubt there is. She hadnt read anything. When you make a phone call it's worse, you will hold until you decide to hang up. I haven't been to the medicine clinic in awhile and last month they wouldn't refill my Paxil and Zyprexa without making an appt first so I did. All of my medications but one (a schedule 3 pain pill) are free. If someone was having you do something that could be illegal and make you lose your job would you do it? Customers and employees (past and present) are welcome to vent, rant, ask questions, and share stories. If you don't like where you receive services, I'm sure there are private psychiatrists you could use. Ha! I will never spend a dime in that store. (I've been on the other side of the phone/window). My Walgreens is really good too. They just told 3 people in line that they don't run your prescription thru the insurance. And of course when I drive all the way there in the pouring rain, they tell me it's not ready and I have to wait longer. You are either in the business of filling prescriptions or you are not. I'm not really sure exactly what that judgment was, but I got the feeling he thought I was some crack head trailer trash bimbo who was trying to scam him (I was really very sick and needed a refill of antibiotics for my daughter who takes antibiotics every day for the asplenia that accompanies her complex congenital heart disease. My daughter uses the Flonase too, it works great for her. I am currently applying to other jobs because I don't see me making it to the 6 months mark. I was also told they don't know when they will open their pharmacy and the problem with that is if they already filled my scripts my doctor can not send them through again. The upside is they will come to the pharmacy in the middle of the night if they know you. Yes Walgreens always sucks! You will miss holidays with your family no matter how good of a worker you are. They are so overwhelmed with signs and stickers that they don't even notice them. Nothing is worse than going thru brain zaps and head shifts. I went there at noon, and the male pharmacist working said they did not have Fentanyl. Walgreens loses money by not training their people correctly and taking the time to do it. Good for you for standing up for what is right. What a steal! Walgreens filled my mothers BP prescription at 5 mg. I was recently exposed to covid and had to take the mandatory 5 days quarantine until I got the results for my covid test as negative and my then broke my tooth off because it's old and messed up. I like a drive thru, so that is how I decide where to get meds.. And thanks, non-existent anti-trust law. Flonase. Not only did Walgreens refuse to fill my prescription, they actually through my veterans voucher away. Took a few days to get Lamictal XR from them, they had to order.However, I bet few take this formulation. And the poor techs dont get paid enough which leads to low quality techs being hired. I went to another Walgreens and i got my meds without calling my doctor (it took 3 other pharmacies to find all of medications). They also filled the wrong dose of the klonopin, so I had to go back 3 times. But the worst thing was she said I could pick up the perscription that night. Lazy as in they get a list for themselves and pawn off a bunch of their work onto you. The ham will not fitlol. His medicines are on auto refill, but they are never ready. I am so so so so so so so sick of this company using and abusing us. They offered me to contact the doctor and get additional prescription after 15 days of messing around. Anyway, I get a letter in the mail saying they have to cancel the appointment. Our regular pharmacy doesnt carry Fentanyl. Meanwhile I run out of Paxil. That's terrible service. Now the liar is fired and living at home with mom. If you are in the number one photo store in the district, most managers let you just take care of photo but you always have the crazy ones who still expect you to wait on photo customers every five minutes, take care of their photo orders AND stock the cooler AND stock the shelves AND whatever list that is neverending. Good show CEO ur running Walgreens right into the Ground! 3, Tell your SM to "ligma-balls" and give em the middle finger. I finally said one day "I work 20 hours a week. The pharm told me, "we're allowed to use the medication again if the consumer doesn't pick it up." I really hope by "medicine clinic" you don't mean emergency room. Oh, and the manager is a jerk. Why it matters: The future of pharmacy services is murky, with Walgreens, CVS and Amazon all pursuing disparate strategies. Janet,No, I would not sit for 90 minutes, either! All I know is that I will NOT patronize their shit pharmacy that I spend thousands of dollars a year at. Almost 4 hours after my Doc called in a prescription Its still NOT READY. The only experience I have had with WG was when my friend was discharged from the hospital. The co-workers vary but, out of all the management, a few or several will have bad attitudes. I hate that you have to ask each CVS customer if they have a stupid extra care card. ComplaintsBoard.com is a leading complaint resolution website on the Internet. We have lost many long time patients due to poor service and it's beginning to make the front end store look shabby. None of the other employees read the employee handbook so they had no idea. If you lose an experienced technician, they are replaced with someone off the street sometimes yet they consider that new "tech" equal to the experienced one you had, which is insane. they screw them all up!!!!!!! Pharmacy's fault. I said I have the best health insurance money can buy! I had no other income and already was raising my 8 year old son on my own and I didn't even have health insurance for my son or myself not to mention that I didn't qualify for help from the state, Walgreens also decides to dispute my case when I tried to apply for unemployment.
