Walgreens

Because the my regular Walgreens pharmacy was out of stock with my medication, I had my medication sent to this one. The pharmacist apparently did not approve of the medication that I have been taking for a long time. And the prescription was not sufficient "documentation" for them to fill it. The fact that other Walgreens had documentation and has been filling it for a while also was not sufficient. They insisted on talking to my doctor. Even after my doctor called them, they refused to fill the prescription. The pharmacist and technician and their manager all think they are better than your trained medical doctor. They certainly feel they are better than you, as the customer.

This review is only about the Walgreens Pharmacy on 4501 Market Street in Wilmington, NC- (I haven't been inside the store)

I recently ordered many products from this website because they were offering a free gift that I really wanted. After calling them before I placed the order, to make sure I would get it, I can a receipt that shows my free gift on it. I receive my order in two shipments, but never receive the gift. Then I call them to ask what happened, and they tell me they won't be able to give me anymore because it's no longer in stock. The only reason I purchased my products there was to get the free gift. I could've shopped anywhere else. So, to me, this was a total SCAM. Just to get people to buy from them. Well, they lost a customer, and I'm gonna make sure a lot of people know about this.

The worst wallgreens. The worst pharmacy very unpleasant pharmacists. One of the managers who is very rude and despotic. The cashiers don't even say hello good afternoon. That's why I'm already changing my prescription to another store. That when have 2.2 stars

Walgreens is a money hungry corporation. All that "welcome to Walgreens, All that "How may I help you be well" stuff is bull crap. They don't care about your well being. They could care less if you're in a wheel chair or on crutches waiting in a line of 10 people. 90% of the time there is just one cashier going as slow as she can, talking up a storm and doesn't care to page another employee for extra help. As for prices, they say they have such great sales - unfortunately, that's only if you want to sign up for a wellness card that accumulates "points" for only some purchases and may or may not give you a discount on items you buy. I have bought from walgreens.com as well (only once) and recieved damaged items. I will not shop at walgreens in the store or online again.

I don't know how drugstore.com delivers orders so quickly. I'm prompted to write this review today, Tuesday mid-afternoon, because I just opened my package of items I ordered on-line on Sunday, late afternoon. Drugstore.com does this so consistently that I even order items from them that I'm in a hurry to get. In addition, I have found that drugstore.com has items that I can't find anywhere else, e.g., Glad Handle Tie trashbags, and a particular nail polish remover I like. In general the prices at drugstore.com are on par with my local stores, although, when drugstore.com has items on sale, they are a good savings.
I rarely write reviews, but I'm so pleased with Drugstore.com's speedy delivery that I wanted to share my experience.

My ordering and receipt of contact lens experience with Vision Direct was fantastic. I was hesitant after reading some of the bad reviews that people gave online, but wasn't in a hurry to receive my order so I placed the order and thought "lets see how this goes". What a pleasant surprise to have my contacts shipped and received in less than 5 days! I'm a firm believer in giving praise where due and it is certainly due to Vision Direct.

I found a price of $6.94 on the GoodRx website in April. I printed out the card, had my doctor order the prescription at Walmart in Fishkill NY, but when I went to pick it up I was told that it would cost $37.00. They said "do you want it or not" so I had to take it because with the new law regarding electronic prescriptions I couldn't take it to another pharmacy. GoodRx is great when it works. Walmart (which is usually a good pharmacy) cannot be trusted to live up to the price quotes.

To make this short, they can't mail my 90 day refill to me correctly. I have only received it twice. Every other time I have to pick it up at the store myself. This time they said I had no refills left. There is always some problem. I only have enough pills for 3 more days.

Above and beyond in customer service from store associate Carmen Duarte at 3099 N State Road 7, Lauderdale Lakes. After being in the hospital for an hysterotomy I went inside the store to get assistance with my son school project. The project required a family tree and being that I cant draw we went inside the store to purchase a picture to put on a poster board. Carmen was able to assist me by not only advising what to purchase but took the time to draw a tree. I will forever be grateful as a single mom for her help.

Awful experience with online ordering of medications. Could not get it together for my meds. And they weren''t engaged in my efforts to get them to work on it. IMO, they could care less. Will NOT bother with them again. Also, always check your meds carefully when you get them at the brick and mortar... I've had a couple of mistakes with meds. At mine. Once I was given the wrong medication strength... the Pharmacist that I called was horrified and told me to come pick up the RIGHT dosage. They gave me the correct dosage, but never asked for the bottle of INCORRECT dosage. Scary.

BUYER BEWARE. This company has the most unprofessional employees ever. I called tonight because they had placed my order with a very unreliable deliver service Laser Ship -=- the person I spoke with Kimber she said her name was was rude, unprofessional and refused to cancel my order -- so she has this job why? She further told me there were no supervisors on (yeah right) and that there was nothing she would do. That is right, she refused to do anything. They have lost me as a customer and if you are smart, go elsewhere -- with all the people out of work and this lazy, unprofessional Kimber has a job -- the only thing I can see that she accomplished besides not doing her job is alienating a customer.

I have stage-4 cancer. I'm in severe pain. My pain management doctor prescribed pain medication on a Thursday, My insurance released the prescription to be filled on Friday, however Walgreens did not have enough pills. Since it is a narcotic, if I get a partial fill with only the pills that they have in stock, I won't be able to get the rest of the pills that will be owed. So, now it's Saturday and there is only one person authorized to order more pills. That person won't be in until Monday and it will take 2-3 additional days for them to get the order.
So here I am, suffering, all because these people don't have enough pills in stock. Thanks, Walgreens.
