I went here to get my Covid vaccine, thinking it would be a better experience than waiting around some casino all grouped together. To my surprise the experience wasn't much different.
They don't have a waiting room other than two chairs tucked into the corner normally used for people picking up their prescriptions. Oh, and yes there are still those customers also crammed into the same corner of the store. So it's a mad house of lines. With people trying to distance, while also staying close as they wait to hear their name. No, PA system in use in his cubicle island, just his tiny voice. So if you can't hear him... Too bad
Even though they have spaced out appointments it's doesn't matter because it's one guy giving the shot and he is batches them up, so I was waiting for an hour passed my appointment to get mine.
Back to the cubicle they have set up for administering the shot. They didn't think about wheelchair users with this design. No one said in the middle of their obvious "last minute Home Depot run" - we need this big enough to accommodate a person in a scooter. I have a slim manual chair and it was embarrassing as hell to have this stranger to twist and cram himself around me and my chair to shut the door. So if you have anything bigger than my wheels you can kiss this idea goodbye..
I don't expect the world to understand what it means to be excluded from the idea by size.. I am no way over weight and my disability was from birth. However, some day I dream of a world that considers the disabled when attempting to serve the community. Walgreens this year you...
Read moreThis is the last time I shop here. I just got out of a urgent care and when I asked the doctor what's the best pharmacy to go to, he said walmart. I should've gone there but this store was on my way home. When I got called up to the window, I asked how much these meds were going to be. This first Latina woman told me about $54. She then said it was going to take about an hour and a half to get it filled. I ate at mcd's then came back and shopped around. When I got up to the counter, a new cashier, a heavy set Latina woman said that my meds would be $73 or it could be $44 if I bought a walgreens savings card for $20, which would bring my total to $64. I've been in sales for years and I know that this type of sales pitch is highly frowned up, in some cases illegal. It goes along with bait and switch. I was tired and now didn't have time to shop anywhere else. I'll be filing a complaint with the BBB to see if I can get my money back. You guys just lost a...
Read moreI can understand delays when they're busy but I was ignored in the drive thru today for 10 mins and I could see they didnt have a line inside. It was 30 mins after they opened so doubt it was break time. First person I saw was a young black lady but didnt get her name. Phone line immediately hung up when I tried to press the button and I tried a few times. When I saw another lady enter, latina, I pressed the button again and miraculously their phone started working and they acknowledged me. Funny how behavior changes with witnesses around. Unnecessary delays.
Ive also had issue with them when calling for refills. They give you empty lip service over the phone amd give you a date when the meds should arrive but then they dont actually process the request. You go to pick up and find out it was never ordered as previously stated. Horribly...
