Since then I've been to more Duane Reade's than Rite Aids. Until on "Saturday night" I really wanted dental floss.* Here I was in Rite Aid, floss in hand behind two people going through it. When they got to the register to buy tobacco, the cashier asked for both if their id's and I'd never seen that. They didn't have an id between them so they stormed out in a huff. No straw purchases here. It was then my turn. I found the cashier to very pleasant, considering what must have been a stressful day. I bade her goodnight and thought that the minimum wage for Virginia should be raised and they we can truly dance and shout. *Little Red Corvette

My review is solely on the pharmacy, not the store as a whole itself…read more I came to pick up medication with my grandmother (80) and chose this location because it was close to VCU after her appointment. Thank God I did go with her because if I hadn't I'm sure we would've had a bigger problem. I put the three medication in two days prior to trying to pick it up. I was astonished that it still wasn't ready. When I asked why it wasn't ready the pharmacist laughed and said it was normal for this location. She also stated that they're always at least four days behind. I'm used to CVS calling me if they don't have my medication at a location or if they're backed up. They ask if I'm willing to drive to a different location ( which I am ) Well all that aside now that we were in store they were willing to move her medication up in line and told me it would be a 30 minute wait. I decided to take her home to rest durning this time. Prior to leaving we asked how much it would be and she stated / showed us that it would be $38.00 My grandmother being old fashion gave me two 20s and I dropped her off at home. Fast forward to returning 30 minutes later and somehow the medication has jumped up to over $60.00. She stated that she should not have guessed how much the medication was going to cost. My confusion was (and still is) that she showed it to us in the system and it said $38.00. What made the price almost double? When I asked she just looked at me like a deer in headlights. At this point I didn't feel like getting into it. It's my grandma I'm going to pay whatever I need to pay , and I needed ti get back to her. I didn't necessarily need directions as the doctor had taken the time ti explain what we would be getting. I just needed to know which medication was which. Her reply was "ummmm I'm not sure" and then she proceeded to make an "educational guess". This sent a chill up and down my spine, because my grandmother being the sweet old lady that she is, would've listen to this woman. The PHARMACIST who is guessing!! My grandmother would've taken her medication wrong! Hearing the uncertainty in her voice and blatantly realizing that she was guessing I asked to speak to someone else. She could however could not seem to understand why I wanted to speak to someone else. We just stood there looking at one another for a moment until we were interrupted by another pharmacist. Thankful who knew what she was doing. She took the time to show me which medication was what. Explained to me how it worked and just put me at ease. All in all though I will never trust this pharmacy again. Which really sucks since it's so close.

I came to pick it up and it was a different type and 1 month's worth. What the hell. I initially thought my doctor had called in the wrong thing so I called them to get clarification and was concerned when they found out the pharmacy didn't do as they called in. They said they called in the right prescription. I confronted the pharmacy and they pulled up my prescription and the look of realization dawned on them. They asked me to wait for 5 minutes and they would get the correct one for me. They ended up giving me 3 months worth of THE SAME INCORRECT BRAND. They assumed this one was okay and asked if I wanted that specific brand. I said yes and the doctor specified this brand only and no other brand. She then tried to make an excuse that there was a "manufacturer's error" for that brand so they didn't have it but they can order it now. What?? All in all, stay away from this pharmacy. I wouldnt be surprised if they disregarded a doctor's prescription for someone else and it ended up being detrimental to them. I will report them so they won't be able to potentially hurt someone else by disregarding the doctor's specific instructions. They have lost my business for good!

BRP has somehow found a way to incorporate some of the necessary modern-day conveniences while maintaining old world charm. The store itself is a mash-up of pharmacy, medical supply, gift shop, post office, floral shop (only silks), and Amazon drop off. I legit did Father's Day shopping, shipping and a pharmacy run in under 30 minutes. The greeting card selection is fantastic. The aisles are well maintained, well stocked, clean and bright. The staff is always available for questions and willing to help. One day I strolled in to pick up a heated water bottle because I really couldn't handle CVS, which is right across the street. One of the medical supply staff was more than happy to help me locate it and I was in and out promptly. Some prices on things are competitive with larger chains, while some things are higher (example Flonase Sensimist is $31 here, $27 at CVS) The pharmacy has an easy refill system online - nothing fancy. You may get a call from the pharmacy reminding you of your refill. Online refills are often delivered same day. You read that right... free delivery on prescriptions. You won't get annoying texts harassing you for refills like the place across the street. The delivery drivers are super polite. Great for run of the mill prescriptions. If you're in the neighborhood, definitely consider making this your home pharmacy.

He acts like he controls your life & you are going to do what he says & that is it. Who would want to change their prescriptions over to someone that is giving out pet medication to a minor child? I would own them if that was my child. He talks to people like a dog, screams, yells & threatens them. He refuses to fill controlled substances that you can't get anywhere else because he can. This could cause a person to die because you can't just stop those. They have to be lowered. I wish I had the space to write all he pulled on my family. DON'T GO TO THEM & PLEASE LET EVERYONE ELSE YOU KNOW NOT TO GO THERE TO THAT PHARMACY. They LIE, make excuses, turn everything around on you, because he does nothing wrong & I refuse to allow him to get by with this. That mother where he had given her a pet med for her child did it for me. It makes me sick because I have been going there since they opened in 1953. I didn't know it was sold about a year ago. Thank you and PLEASE look out for yourselves as most older people go here & for others so they will have the needed information. Thank you so much.

After being told to call at a specific timeframe for my prescription, calling as directed, and being told that the prescription would be there that day, I went in to pick it up two days later. Although I received no communication of any problems, there was no record of the prescription and the item had since gone on backorder. I won't belabor this review with all of the ins-and-outs of the experience but suffice it to say that I will not be using this pharmacy ever again due to the way a man behind the counter jumped in to talk down to me. I would have provided 1 star (vs 2) if it hadn't been for the look of compassion on a few other staff members' faces when I noted that I had not done anything that warranted him speaking to me that way. It was not the first time he has taken that kind of attitude. And some of my friends have had similar experiences. I strongly suggest you go elsewhere.
