Pharmacy dept. in Sussex N.J. route 23 north
I am 76 years old, I live less than 3 miles from Walgreens. I scheduled an appointment for a shingles shot for myself and my husband. I did it two weeks prior to my appointment. I got confirmation for both appointments. Unfortunately unknowingly I scheduled one for the Franklin pharmacy, 9 miles away. Your very rude pharmacist in Sussex would give me the vaccine but not my husband. Stating he doesn’t have any appointment. That was my mistake, but as I said making an appointment on the computer at this age isn’t easy.
There were not any people waiting in a long line at the pharmacy or dropping off prescriptions. We were the only ones there. Your very rude pharmacist said they were too busy to give us both shots. We left.
We left there very upset went to the Acme which is 1 mile closer, ask them if we could get a shingles vaccine? Do we need an appointment, no. Within 15 minutes my husband and i did our paperwork, got the vaccine and were very happy.
Never again will I go to Walgreens in Sussex.
Because They Are Too Bus!!!!!!!!!!

I’m at this location:
WALGREENS (1)
PICKUP ONLY
1280 HIGHWAY 95 A NORTH
FERNLEY, NV 89408
I deliver prescription medications to patients in assisted living facilities that cannot pick them up themselves. I work with several different Walgreens locations with no issues with the exception of this store. The pharmacist at this store is rude, confrontational, and very disrespectful. It’s my hope that someone reads this and is concerned enough to contact me to discuss this issue. Again I work with several different walgreens stores and will continue however I will not work with this location again.

I am very very disappointed with the phone service at the Forestdale Walgreens in Birmingham, AL. For more than 45 plus minutes I waited. One caller was ahead of me. They picked up the phone at least 10 or more times but hung it up. What is going on at this store. Finally I got a tech named Tyler who had just arrived at 7:20 pm on 6/12/23. I am very grateful to him. Please address this problem or I will be moving on. Is something wrong with the phone system or with the tech reason I had this problem. Please let me know what the problem was. Thank you very much.

Respectfully yours,
Chauncey Gardner / Consumer

I have recently stopped using the Walgreens at 834 West Market St., Akron, Ohio. The final straw was the failed (twice-once by me and once by a Walgreens pharmacy ((on line)) employee to enter two prescriptions to be filled. Not new. The prescriptions disappeared into the ether. This followed months of frustration with the pharmacy. Surly plodding pharmacy clerks. Long lines to pick up or drop off. Pharmacy being closed with no notice online. First made aware that the Pharmacy is closed by the sign in the drive through window. I have switched to a local non-corporate pharmacy. The price is the same. The attitude and performance are superior to that of Walgreens 834 W. Market. I will also no longer make the occasional purchase that was convenient since I was picking up a prescription. If my experience is typical of Walgreens across the country you should be closing some of the thousands of stores you have in order to properly and continually staff the remaining stores.

I just went into my local Wal-Greens.
I noticed the PRIDE section is is the seasonal section. The items being sold are targeting children. (Stuffed animals- Disney- Mickey and Minnie mouse, Goofy, Donald and Daisy duck. ) rainbow tutus- that are very small for like 2-5 year olds -beads for children, face stickers, etc. very few adult items a few caps and small mugs which were actually put on the very bottom shelf. Why is Walgreens allowing these children pride toys to be sold? Why are you going along with grooming children ? By the way this Together with pride collection is right next to the crayons and Play-Doh in swim toys.
Walgreens should correct this. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

My Memorial Town and Country Houston Walgreens now process RX’s thru a central fulfillment center. I don’t know who’s bright idea this was but what a nightmare. The last two refills have been either the wrong medicine in the bag or the telephone reorder was not processed. If Walgreens doesn’t get this sorted out there’s a CVS down the street.

Visiting Grand Junction CO for 10 days and had to refill my Effexor XR from my home Walgreens in AL. First called in 6/26 and was told it would be filled . Then told delay due in Insurance issue. Called 2x was told pharmacist had to review. Spoke with pharmacist on 6/27 said she was putting it through and I could pick up on 6/28. Didn’t tell me pharmacy was closed on Sunday 6/27 and Monday Memorial Day 6/28. Therefore I was off my Effexor for 4 days which a cold turkey detox is dangerous. This is beyond unacceptable and unprofessional for a pharmacy to treat a patient in this manner. Had I known this would happen I would have had my home Walgreens to call my rx in to Kroger. I’m going to try to pick up my Effexor tomorrow 6/30. Hopefully it’s ready if not I’ll tx to Kroger and take my business elsewhere when I return to AL

I am writing to complain about the Walgreens at 450 N. Ridge Ave. in Richmond, Virginia. I came to pick up a prescription on Friday before memorial day. The pharmacy was closed with no explanation except no pharmacist was available. I was told I could pick it up on Monday as they’re closed Saturday and Sunday, I am here Monday, Memorial Day 2023 and they are closed again. The medicine I need is a controlled substance that cannot be transferred to another store. Also, since the holiday I cannot locate my doctor. This is the second time that this is happened to me in 2 months. I have been met in the parking lot with elderly people crying. I left a formal complaint on Friday and was told that someone would call me. Of course no one did. Please respond to my email or call me. I intend to take this up with my state legislator, news media etc. You have put people in harms way. The staff, the 17-year-old clerk and the 60 something stocker could not provide me any information. I have 100 solutions to the problem either you don’t care about clients or have no creative thinkers in your corporate level. Do you understand the harm this causes there are people who need controlled substances for cancer, diabetes, COPD, asthma, etc. what is their alternative clog the emergency rooms? This is totally unacceptable.

The Walgreens in Mahoning County have refused to fill prescriptions. My Dr. sends online order for me to pick up each order the Pharmacist say your never been here. Not true every month during my office bust which Dr. Paolone I am all way told you have never been here while they are looking for the online order
