After waiting more than a month, I went to Walgreens to pick it up, only to be told by a pharmacist that my insurance did not cover that specific type of medication and that they did not have it available. I was asked to wait while she looked into the situation. I waited for more than 30 minutes and then politely asked if she could contact a nearby CVS to see whether they had the medication in stock. After another 30+ minutes, I went back to ask about the status. Instead of receiving assistance, the pharmacist became extremely rude and started yelling at me, saying that no one at CVS was answering the phone and that she had already been helping me. The situation escalated, and I raised my voice as well. She then accused me of yelling at her and told me, "Go away!" I found this behavior completely unacceptable and unprofessional, especially from a healthcare professional dealing with a customer who had already been waiting more than a month for necessary medication. Fortunately, another pharmacist at the same Walgreens was extremely helpful. He was able to find an alternative medication for me right away and treated me with professionalism and respect. I later contacted the Walgreens manager and filed a complaint. I also suggested that management review the store's security footage to understand what happened. The manager apologized, which I appreciated. Walgreens in Needham: I hope you will take this complaint seriously and provide appropriate professional and customer-service training to this pharmacist. No customer should be treated this way, particularly when they are already dealing with the stress and frustration of obtaining their medication. I sincerely hope this experience is addressed so that other customers do not have to go through the same kind of toxic and disrespectful customer service.

    More than disappointed with this CVS store…read more For the actual store, I had no HUGE issues. The store was extremely organized and they had everything I needed in stock, yet it was a bit small than preferred. Yet, so far 4 star CVS. Then I come to checkout. With only a 12-pack of Nestle small Water bottles, and a few other small items. My cashier was "John", and his nametag read, Assistant Manager. He was friendly at first, yet when the 12 pack of water came up at the register at $2.67, and the sign read $2.19, he basically said it couldn't be. I brought him over to the sign which read "2.19, Nestle PL WTR 12PK" (PL is for Pure Life). He said he would match that price, and would fix the error. Since that item is a grocery item, and CVS sells more than 100 grocery items, by state law, I am supposed to get one unit of the water for free. Specifically, this happened at the Dedham CVS Pharmacy at 947 Providence Highway, a few months ago, when manager Melissa handled it personally, and took an interest in trying to get the law posted at that store, and to figure out why they didn't have them posted. She also gave me my item for free. Here, this guy "John" turned sarcastic and rude and ended up still being friendly, yet not giving me one unit of the water for free, he put in a $1 off coupon. I guess, CVS corporate will have to get a call about this. He said "You're going to go the law about $2, it's going to cost $10,000 to go to court over $2", it's a law they are supposed to go by it. Plus, the other CVS down the street, on Route 9 is remodeled, hassle-free and consumer-friendly, without John. He was friendly, and astonished at some points, so I'll give him credit for not being miserable, yet really, you couldn't have just given me one for free. Hopefully, CVS corporate can send me a gift card for $2.19, so I don't have to contact the Division Of Standards. After all that, my receipt (which I posted a picture of), reads "1195 Boylston Street, Brookline MA 02146". INCORRECT! Should be "1195 Boylston Street, Chestnut Hill MA 02467". Annoying and in need of fix. Overall, fine store, just don't go looking for customer service. There is barely any good service at this location. UPDATE : 9/17/15 : Called corporate and got call back from store manager saying that the city line is in the parking lot so Star Market is in Chestnut Hill and CVS is in fact, in Brookline, therefore, CVS.com is incorrect, saying it is in Chestnut Hill.

To get answer to a question is like pulling teeth . They messed up my RX as well . It was difficult to get it correct without my doctor being on stand by . This is the low bar of pharmacies , unfortunately. I live close so it really is unfortunate.
