If you've ever thought to yourself "this drugstore could use a second floor" then you're in luck,…read morebecause this one has it! On the first floor you'll find the huge cosmetics section (my personal fave), cleaning supplies, cashiers and the grocery section. If you're looking for cosmetics this is the best place to come for huge selection - they have a huge beauty boutique (Chanel! Urban Decay! Clinique!) and a good amount of affordable cosmetics too. Their NYX section is pretty great, though I still find myself popping between here and Lawton's as their stock varies quite a bit between the two. Upstairs you will find the pharmacy, seasonal goodies (mmm chocolates), hair care, cold and flu medications - the rest of the things you'd expect to find in a drugstore. This pharmacy is the best one I've ever been to - the staff are very helpful and caring, they explain anything you may need to know and I never feel rushed if I have questions.

Absolutely ridiculous service would recommend going quite literally anywhere else for pharmacy…read moreservices. Pharmacists working July 23 evening lied to me multiple times and would not fill a prescription as promised, flip flopping between what seemed like made up reasons for a simple prescription not being filled. Pharmacists said at 2 times the order was ready for pickup, to which I went for pick up and simply had my time wasted, not to mention was treated as if we hadn't spoken multiple times and with a very bad attitude. Hard to believe how bad the service is here.

I often find myself wandering around the store not sure where the thing I'm looking for is. I will say this: for a small store, there's a fairly good selection. Though that size issue does present some challenges. I've often seen boxes piled up in the aisles. There are often specials near the counter which leads to some dangerous impulse purchases. The hours during the week are great but I'd love if they were open a bit later on the weekend.

The team seemed somewhat perturbed to have people shopping in the store in what is a major tourist area. However, the pharmacy folks were incredibly impatient and rude today. Don't ask them basic questions or prepare to wait before receiving a rude, insulting response. We were asking basic questions about medications trying to avoid HBP impacting drugs. These can be important questions when taking a medication, and we were talked down to and dismissed. I'd be impressed by the amount of contempt thrown our way in a 30 second interaction if it wasn't so incredibly frustrating. Honestly, there are several other pharmacies nearly. I'd choose any of them over this one. Work on the customer service skills at the pharmacy; it might be health impacting!

Having dealt with several other pharmacy teams, this one is by far my favourite. I'd go out of my way to have them help me in the future. The staff at this Shoppers location has seen me in various states of disarray -- whether I: had a bloody facecloth wrapped around my hand after nearly cutting off my finger, was extremely ill, or super hungover and on a serious Easter chocolate binge-- the staff has always treated me with care and kindness. This location isn't large enough to have a health food section, but it manages to carry most of the essentials and still remain orderly and clean despite the popular and busy location as a central feature of Quinpool Centre. There aren't a whole lot of awesome vegan snacks at this location, but their chocolate selection is sufficient to get me through a typical snack attack.

First she showed me but she was doing her work she came to me when done with her work.

I went to her for checking she kept me waiting . for that i understand she was on phone. but her colleague asked her and she said "that why i said to take advil ". I was very much confused because every drug has pretty much same line in use for "--". i appreciate her for assisting some one over phone for half and hour but in my case i believe she only thought i had covid and i am behaving irresponsible and spreading it. Please think and look beyond covid.

The WalMart Pharmacy has something you wouldn't expect in a big box store: heart, and caring, and…read morecompassion. This is due entirely to the staff employed there (and not necessarily with corporate policies). Chris, Angela, Novalea, Nadine and the rest of the crew work together to efficiently fill prescriptions and counsel clients on new drugs and possible side-effects. They'll evaluate your current medications to see if there might be any possible interactions and they'll place notes on your file if you've had bad results in the past, to ensure that you'll never go home with that medication again (even if your doctor forgets!). Getting your prescriptions filled at WalMart might seem as though you're subsidizing the evil empire. However, for many of us, it all comes down to dollars and cents and for the money, WalMart is the least expensive game in town. I routinely save $25 and up per month by getting my prescriptions filled here. It's easy to move your prescriptions from your current pharmacy - go in and speak with Nadine about what's involved in the process. The staff are easy to work with and have often worked with me to fill or refill prescriptions that are outside the norm. I know that for a certain generic drug, I need to obtain it from one specific manufacturer to avoid nasty side effects. They have never once forgotten to special order it for me, which is pretty amazing. But that's just all in a day's work for the WalMart pharmacy staff. You won't be sorry you started using their service.

Then after I complained 6 suddenly appeared a week or so later. Now I notice that there are only two now?? TWO for your customers?! The call center employees are obviously taking most of the parking all day long. Ninety five percent of the time I actually have to park at the Superstore and walk to Lawtons. I don't mind doing this now and again, but daily?? Especially frustrating when it is raining(Have to bag my mail items up in grocery bags on these days so they don't get wet during the walk to the store from my car which is parked at Superstore. LOL) or when temps are sub zero. It isn't just me, it's everyone I speak to about this issue. I'm the one spending hundreds of dollars there, the call center employees are getting free parking and likely not spending a dime in the store. FREE UP SOME SPACE!
