I must restate - stay far away! After transferring from this pharmacy a few months ago, prescriptions were unexpectedly delivered. I refused one and visited to store to make sure it would not happen again. Last week, I arrived home to find a delivery from Express at my door. I physically took the prescription to them, asked again to be removed from their system once more (that would be 3 requests), and was then called by my current pharmacy today because they were unable to fill a prescription because Express had not reversed and cleared the delivery. Save yourself the headaches. read more

Everyone here are absolutely AMAZING! I love this pharmacy. Great service, delivery, helpful, and very appreciative of your business.

Everything! Some ppl there are nasty and don't know how to talk to you as a person . They lie about having your medicines ready when they aren't and when you get there you still have to wait ! And now that I switched my pharmacy all of a sudden all my medicines didn't get transferred over and the ones that did the refills somehow Expired ! God will deal with these ppl for what they done , it's just bad service all around. Please stay away from this pharmacy !!! Very unprofessional !! read more

They are quick to fill prescriptions. All the staff are extremely helpful and will fill a prescription on the spot. Highly recommended

Extremely helpful and great staff. They are super quick as well! Overall great experience

Don't go here. I moved all my prescriptions over because rite aid is closing. They sent me a text I had prescriptions ready. When I came in, they didn't have the correct last name (I told them several times on the phone), they didn't have my insurance information and never bothered to call me, and told me that my controlled substances had to be sent by the doctor. Never told me this when I called a week ago. Now I'm scrambling to get medications. Don't waste your time. read more

I would give Zero stars for the unethical behavior of this pharmacy. I had a regular RX I needed filled and was denied because the pharmacy was losing money to fill it. Denied my health care for my schedule dose hours before closing when I had never been informed of the issue months of regular filling of my RX until the day was scheduled to pick up I was denied. read more

Absolutely the best! Such good and quick service. Great customer service. Definitely recommend!

So far they are the best pharmacy I've dealt with in recent years. They have no problem getting me a specific manufacturer for any brand of medicine/medication I'm taking. Prices have been good and I haven't had any issues or complaints to date. I've had to call and ask if my prescription was ready but it's a smaller pharmacy so that's to be expected so besides all the tech of larger pharmacy's have they seems to care and take care of their customers needs. I definitely recommend! read more

We saw that Express Pharmacy was giving covid shots so we called and the employee said try around 3pm. We saw that the line wrapped around the block but my husband wanted to try to get the shot so we stayed. It took two hours in line but we left having had our first covid shot. We have to go back in three weeks to get the second shot. Now for the employees. They are all friendly and polite which was amazing trying to wait on that many people. They didn't seem stressed out and kept a smile on their faces. Whoever did the hiring is to be congratulated. They are the best employees. I will definitely go here for my pharmacy needs. read more

Express Pharmacy - Waiting in line for Covid shot - Medical Centers Near Me - Bakersfield, California

See all

I've been getting the run around by the pharmacy and the drs office. I received a call from the pharmacy that the driver who delivers was waiting outside the gate where I live, unable to get in. I told her to tell the driver I was on my way to let him in. I am disabled so it took me a minute to get there. When I got there the driver was nowhere to be found. He just left. So here I am day 2, waiting. I decide to call the pharmacy, they tell me they need a prior authorization for my insurance. Nobody called to tell me, they just left me hanging. Well the driver is already out doing deliveries so that means another day, day 3 , that I am sitting here waiting for my meds. Do I have a choice? No I don't. I am disabled and unable to drive right now. Long wait times on the phone when you call and sometimes you just get disconnected. They need to communicate with their customers..... I may have to find another pharmacy that delivers. I may not have much of a life but sitting here waiting for my meds is no life at all. read more

Express pharmacy is the best pharmacy ever I seen, they deliver your medications automatically if you sign up for auto-delivery, and they're very helpful & friendly. I wish they open more stores everywhere. Wish you luck. read more

Penni S. I ordered a much needed medication (30 day supply) a month ago. They gave me 3 of the 30. It usually costs less than $40. They gave me 3 pills and charged $18.00 I've really been struggling and we've been going in circles for a month. I need a new prescription. Now they want $115 for the rest of them. This is so wrong. They originally quoted me $40.41. They told me many times they had my prescription ready, but when we got there they said they were out. This happened 3 times. I will never set foot in that pharmacy again. read more

This pharmacy is located in the Riverwalk Professional complex at the corner of Callaway and Meacham. There is a nice little beverage station along with comfortable seating and a nice size television just in case you have to wait a bit. The staff is so accommodating. I've only been here a couple of times and they recognize me and call me by name. The pharmacy technician John is like a breath of fresh air. He offered delivery service and bubble wrap for people who take a daily regimen of medication. He went above and beyond to get all of my brothers medication on track and bubbled to make things easy for us. This is the service that is hard to find. I look forward to picking up the medications as I am greeted with a smile and wonderful service. If you live in the area and in need of a pharmacy that treats you eith courtesy you should definitely come here. Remember they have free delivery. read more

This place is a joke, I went on line to make an appointment for my 1st Covid shot, when I get 10 minutes early for my 4:15 appointment there is a line of people, when I get to the front of the line I tell the lady I'm here for my appointment and I asked her if these people who were walk-ups with no appointment would go after me and she said no they been waiting, I told her what's the point of making an appointment if you don't honor it and I have to wait in line? All she said is they been waiting? WTF right? I just left and said I'll reschedule with a real pharmacy that knows how to honor an appointment. They're just money hungry and slamming in as many people as they can! They should've had two lines. One for appointments another for walk ins.. read more

I had made a appointment on line for Monday February 15th at 12:15. I kept waiting with people who got their shots way ahead of me. They said they misplaced my paper. Finally received the COVID shot at 2:00. Bad unorganized customer service. I had gone up twice and asked had they forgotten about the appointment I had made. read more

Great friendly staff. Always letea me know in advance when it's time to refill . Would highly recommend it

Everyone is very nice and they have all my medication in stock! Even a hard to find one.

To whom it may concern: Is it necessary to have 40 vaccinate yard signs? It just looks tacky and desperate. I'm not gonna get vaccinated based off of a yard sign.. thanks read more

So my mom needed a prescription that other pharmacies were out of. Express was able to fill her prescription within a couple hours. They were really nice and helpful. They also have free delivery and encouraged us to use it whenever we want. read more

Nice people, great huddle in getting your meds in a quick amount of time and easy to work with. They even have a curtesy delivery.

we finally found a pharmacy that knows what they are doing ,they don`t keep you n hold for 20 minutes or longer.they are very helpful.We used to g to Savemart Pharmacy and they were great as well.they had to transfer our prescriptions when they closed and the new pharmacy would keep me n hold for 20 minutes or longer.What a waste of my time.that pharmacy would say they didn`t have the meds ready and that it would be an hour.that happened so many times we switched t express it was like night and day the service at express great and they deliver read more

Went in for a vaccine shot, and the pharmacist asked me if I want him to wear gloves while administering the shot! That shocked me and made me wonder if he knew standard health care procedures! I do not plan to go back. Also, there was no one there before me, and I waited about 20 minutes to get the shot. Then they didn't even ask me if I wanted the at-home Covid tests that is covered through my insurance and handed it to me after I checked in. That was also shady they did that without telling me first. read more

I just transferred all of my Rx from one of the "Big Box" retail pharmacies after getting a COVID Booster here as my PCP suggested. They have the nicest, most professional, and efficient staff. read more

I'm sorry to say John moved to a different Express Pharmacy but I'm sure his new customers love him just as much. However, Dante, Candy, and my new delivery friends are just as great to me, I love them all! Dante, you always work OVERTIME just to help me and we know how much that entails lolol, you're the best! read more

It's a shame really. This used to be a great neighborhood pharmacy. Now your prescriptions get phoned in or even emailed for a quick response, but this pharmacy has gotten lazy. Very, very lazy. You have to wait a full 24 hours after your doctor's office has called it in, and even then they still haven't filled it, and you have to stand there and wait another 15 to 20 minutes while they put it together. How they can afford to care so little about their customers is surprising. Unfortunately A.J. no longer works at this location. read more

Amazing pharmacist really good with customer always remembers my name even though I've only been there twice

This is the best pharmacy around. AJ always finds ways to save you money. My mail order 90 day rx is $180. He found a coupon so that my copay is $0. In addition, he remembers your name. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable too. STOP GOING TO THE CHAIN PHARMACIES!! read more

Express Pharmacy is outstanding. The people who work there are professional and welcoming. They seem to truly care about their customers. A.J. the pharmacist has helped me many times personally and knows me by my first name. He is a great guy, and treats his customers wonderfully. Most prescriptions are filled quickly and wait time is minimal compared to the big chain stores. If you are fed up with the B.S. the big stores put you through, transfer your prescriptions here, you will be pleased with the result. read more

Express Pharmacy was the only location offering to walk up COVID vaccines, I had to stand in line most of the day but I was able to receive my vaccination the same day, the employees of Express Pharmacy were very professional and caring, they did a great job ! Might have to transfer my medication to Express Pharmacy. read more

I've been a hospice nurse for over 10 years and as you can imagine we must get multiple medications to our patients quickly and all of our patients have specific, individualized needs. Express Pharmacy is the best there is. Knowledgeable pharmacists and staff who are always willing to assist in any way. You'll be very happy with this pharmacy. They have compounding services and they deliver! read more

We have been going here for the last three years. Still extremely happy with this place (see my original review). I even brag to my friends about the customized help we get. For years, I went to Walmart/CVS cause prescription meds are the same, right? Well, we lost insurance when husband lost his job. AJ helped guide us on what medication to ask our doctor for that didn't cost $400 a month. Not going to get that help at the big name pharmacies. Also, this pharmacy has looked up coupons for me before to bring down some costs. Who does that? Most recently, I had Lasik eye surgery done. I told the specialist that I really prefer to use this pharmacy and she looked perplexed on why I would want to go here. So she calls in the prescription and as soon as she gets off the phone, she tells me that she is referring all her Rosedale clients to this pharmacy. read more

Unfortunately, this pharmacy received my prescription twice from my physician, I called the pharmacy to see what the delay, the pharmacist said he would call me to pick up when ready. It's been 6 months STILL haven't receive my medication.(I have great insurance) I'm staying with CVS. read more

Just got my second vaccine dose today. Thank you to all the staff that work so hard to make this happen.

What a great Pharmacy. Friendly staff who make sure you're not waiting to long for your prescriptions medication.

This pharmacy is so ridiculous and I definitely feel something fishy going on here like they are making copies and filling my mom's prescription cause there's two guys that always take care of my mom and always look out for her and that's who she always calls to check if they'll be ready and they say always say yes but when they aren't there something happens to them or they just went out for delivery when we never do delivery or they just ran out or something is up with our insurance which I believe is total nonsense and honestly feel they are stalling for time to cover up someone's doing if not their own. This is not how you treat your customers especially with the kind of business this is. This isn't like a Footlocker where if they don't have my size I can just wait a few days or go somewhere else if not just order them! This is a prescription my mother needs every day just to get through her day!! And I feel that there is more that should be done for her and yet there isn't. I am a man of very much patience and it takes a lot for me to get riled up especially to make such accusations but when I know in my heart something is wrong it most certainly always is!! Think twice before coming through thier doors. read more

I'm not sure there is any other pharmacy out there where you can walk in 20 minutes after closing and the pharmacist greets you, discusses your specific need/allergy and fills your prescription on the spot. I knew he was closing and said, "I can pick it up tomorrow, can I just drop it off tonight?" He insisted that he filled it right then and said, "You're sick. This is important. We will do this now." It's extremely difficult for me to find medicines due to my allergies but AJ, John and the other staff members always go above and beyond for me. Express Pharmacy, thank you for really caring of your customers. We appreciate you! read more

I am 69 years old and I remember the small mom and pop pharmacies that actually knew my name and familiar with my particular needs. Then came big box pharmacies like CVS, Walmart etc where it's always someone different to help you and while treated properly I always feel like a number with a wallet. Express Pharmacy on Calloway goes back to the old fashioned way of treating customers. They know my name, exchange pleasantries and most important show they care about your needs. if you are looking for personal service this is the place to go. The added benefit is their free delivery. I know a lot of people love the drive thru pick up window offered at the big box pharmacies but I prefer the personal involvement and feel better actually knowing my pharmacist by name. read more

I tried to like this pharmacy for several years, but the staff at this place is unprofessional and incompetent. Several times that I have been here the store is not open at or around 8:15. Last time I was filling prescriptions here I had called two days before with simple but detailed directions. Fill two of my meds, and save two more for later. I showed up at 8:11 on what was going to be a very busy day. The door that has the hour on it is locked. The sign says they are open at 8:00. Not knowing if they will be 12 minutes late or an hour late, I left and went on about my day. At lunchtime I came again. It started taking a long time, and my two medications are on the counter. I asked them to get me my meds and left me get out of here. A nice young lady comes over to me with the excuse that she is re-counting my medications. Which medication? my meds are on the counter in front of me. Well in all their ineptness and incompetent unprofessionalism, she is counting the meds not to be filled. Ok so IF she was supposed to fill those two prescriptions- how long does it take to count to thirty? even twice? three times? say four times? A grown person should be able to do it in less than five minutes. I have now been here between 15 and 20 minutes and am pissed now. I raised hell with her and the guy at the counter. Finally I left at about 22 minute into the second trip. Al told I wasted more than 40 minutes and 16 miles of driving to get my medications. I AM DONE!! I called another pharmacy and transferred my meds over. Express will not miss me, I was always outspoken when they were stupid, and that was several times a year. They are nice people who can't even come to work on time, let alone do things right when they eventually drag their asses to work. read more

This is by far the best pharmacy I have ever dealt with. They make the life of someone on meds much less complicated. Drivers are professional and timely. The manager AJ is top notch when it comes to managing prescriptions and he provides AAA customer service. Thank god for pharmacies like this. read more
