Every single time I go in to buy insulin syringes (so that others are safe), I get treated with a very stereotypical attitude to the point its embarrassing! They give me a dirty look and tell me they have none. I am not a drug addict, I work in the recovery field, and it shouldn't matter if I was! What makes them mad...the fact that someone either needs them for insulin, that they are trying to be safe and use clean needles, that someone may be helping someone else with harm reduction, or do they just not want to make a sale? Walgreens treats me with the upmost respect, even from the pharmacists themselves, and that is a shame. Its not every CVS, just this one.

Read moreBe extremely careful when filling a script at this pharmacy. I am currently pregnant and was given a mixture of two scripts in one bottle. One of which I was not prescribed and does not have a pregnancy rating. I had consumed both my prescription and non prescribed pills because they were identical.

When I called to find out what I had been taken the pharmacist on duty apologized and told me a manager would contact me the following day. I never received a call.

I will never do business...

I asked to speak with the pharmacy supervisor who refused to EVEN DOCUMENT my issue and told me just pick up my meds a couple days early and I should be all set. I told her I don’t want to be flagged by my insurance for trying to fill meds early and was basically shrugged off. The supervisor does not care if someone in the pharmacy is stealing patients’ medication? Can’t even document the call? Completely unprofessional and if I go there I will have to count all my meds in front of them at the counter moving forward. This is so unacceptable, as soon as I visit my provider I’m switching pharmacies. Apparently narcotic theft isn’t worthy of making...
