    I've been here a couple times lately. There are so many derelicts in the parking lot it cannot be…read moresafe. I watched one guy repeatedly go into a Mercedes SUV and take stuff out. I reported to the "manager" in the store (I reported first to the cashier who told me to talk to the manager) and he couldn't care less. It was like I was bugging him. I think most people go here for meds, it doesn't appear to be stocked well. The website said they had my shampoo but they didn't. They also have half the store under glass. That's a "I won't be back" thing for me. No one likes having to wait ten minutes to get the glass opened. If people are stealing stuff then get security. I'm honestly a well built man but I hate coming here because of the riff raff surrounding the place. There are other options.

    This review is for the pharmacy only. Now let's talk about the HIPAA violation that I have yet to…read morereport and numerous times that this pharmacy had delayed my child's prescription in the past 3-6 months. They claim it's an insurance issue, but my child's insurance hasn't changed in years. Then they lie and say they're out of stock. Which is mostly untrue. There was an incident when I requested to refill a prescription a week in advance. They sent me a text claiming it was out of stock. I had a feeling that it was bs so I drove to the pharmacy and spoke with their staff in-person. Guess what? The prescription that they claimed that was "out of stock" was in fact in stock. The tech told me that I just needed to wait 10 minutes. I had to explain to the tech the importance of my child's medication being filled on time, given that a missed dose can cause a life-threatening issue. About a month ago, I was in line inquiring on my child's prescription. There was another customer standing super close behind me while I was giving the tech very personal information. The staff did not say anything to the customer standing very close to me. There I was disclosing personal medical information not realizing that the customer was near me the whole time. (They should check the cameras; I can't make this up!) I only became aware that the man was standing extremely close to me because another customer in line pointed it out and told him to step back. There is no way that pharmacy tech helping me did not notice him. HIPAA VIOLATION! Anyway, if I could give this pharmacy zero stars I would.

    This is a really down in it's luck CVS…read more There are a ton of vagrants out front and the front door doesn't work and is propped open. A lot of the shelves were empty, almost everything is locked up, and it feels a bit grimy. It was a wasted trip for us since it turns out our vaccination isn't covered by our insurance (the pharmacy tech also had an issue checking us in and reviewing our accounts) and the check stand (no self check out) had a line of five people deep that wasn't going anywhere so I put back the candies I'd picked up and left. To be honest I never see us ever coming back to this location, we don't see these issues at our local Walnut Creek CVS and we're always able to use their self check out to be in and out quickly, so overall I think two stars is right on the nose.

    Update: 02/10/2025 Some rude lady called saying you need…read moreauthorization or I could pay out of pocket for my stuff. Then said you have medical so you NEED authorization. My dr sent a two month supply in January with your pre authorization! When I told her I would call my dr she said you do that and hung up. I just got off the phone with my dr who said the people there were RUDE to her too and that they told her she does not get prescriptions here she gets it on treat blvd. I HAVE NEVER ONCE picked up a prescription on TREAT blvd! The dr told them we sent it there. My dr proceeded to read from CCHP (medical) that I DO NOT NEED pre authorization because I am pre diabetic!! I think you guys just bsing because I posted this yelp review! Pretty sure if I contact CCHP they will say the same thing! So over this pharmacy. EVERYTIME I try to refill my prescriptions THEY don't have it.. or they didn't get my drs request, they need to contact my dr. It's always something. I've put refill for 2 of my prescription 4 X online because it shows it's not being refilled! I checked this morning because I am supposed to take one of them every 7 days and there's nothing! I did this last week, so did my dr. Checked again today for the refills and shows there are none put ins so AGAIN I had to put to REFILL! When you call you can not even talk to someone you have to leave a message. EVERYTIME I go in to pick up there's always a customer upset about something. Please get it together! I'm going to switch pharmacies. I come to this one because it's closer to me but I'm so tired of not having my stuff refilled when asked etc! It's always something and I'll post it here the message from them!

From the moment we first stepped inside, we knew we had found something truly special. The team here is made up of some of the most wonderful, caring, and genuinely kind people we have ever met. They took the time to help us quickly, answer all of our questions, explain our medications thoroughly, and make sure we understood everything we needed to about our care. They never made us feel rushed or like just another number--every interaction felt personal, thoughtful, and sincere. It's rare these days to find a pharmacy where you can truly feel how much the staff cares about your health and well-being. At CareLink, you can feel it the moment you walk through the door. They listen, they offer support, and they go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of, both medically and personally. Knowing that we have such a compassionate team looking after our health needs brings so much peace of mind, and honestly, it just warms our hearts. If you are looking for a pharmacy that treats you like family, genuinely cares, and provides outstanding service, we highly recommend checking out CareLink Pharmacy. Trust us--you will not regret it. They are truly a rare find. We're so grateful to have found them!

We were surprised how fully stocked this place was especially on Christmas Day! Their holiday aisle was still fully loaded! They had plethora of awesome gifts available and even alcohol gifts. The dude and I were so tempted to get their Kahlúa gift set as it was literally only $20 which is a steal in my opinion! Wish we snagged it. It was pretty busy inside and they were totally enforcing their MASK policy. So wear one or they can't ring you up. I heard staff say that to a few customers which I think they just forgot to put it on. The store was clean, organized and staff was friendly. I always sign up for any awards program as you get deals! I had so many coupons here for CVS but left them at the hotel :( ugh but that's okay. The lines were long but it moved fast. We did but Trulys here which they were decently priced no complaints. Overall, love CVS in my opinion they have better selections of items than their competitors Walgreens. Would definitely be back. Oh yah! Staff was friendly and warm. Impressed with this location!

And the current CVS pharmacy staff sweating their asses off to fur-fill orders. I see their gates being protected like Mama Bears before their shut down between 1:30-2:00 p.m. Let's also mention their cash registers. They're constantly locking up at the pharmacy and if you haven't happen to you at least once in the last one month, well you're not part of the club.

    After getting disconnected multiple times, I called back and asked to speak with the Pharmacy…read moreManager. I was told the Pharmacy Manager wasn't available, so I asked to speak with any manager. The manager told me he thinks the Pharmacy Manager's name was "Lau" (he spelled it) and that the pharmacist answering the phones might be "Shemma." I told him that I had already been disconnected multiple times and was just trying to get my prescription. The manager wasn't rude, but it didn't really feel like I was talking to someone who was concerned about fixing the issue. I expected a little more urgency since why are the pharmacy staff acting like they answering calls and disconnecting them on "accident". Instead, the only solution offered was to transfer me back to the pharmacy and let them know I was waiting on the phone. When someone answered, I asked if her name was Shemma. She immediately responded, "Nope," and transferred me. I was connected to Shemma. I realized she wasn't the same person that had disconnected my earlier calls because her voice sounded different from the employee who had answered before. Since Shemma stayed on the line, I decided to ask about my medication and a possible prescription transfer between Walgreens locations. I explained that my regular Walgreens told me that if this location had the medication in stock, they could request the prescription transfer. Shemma told me, "No, I can't do that. Call that Walgreens to transfer it." This completely conflicted with what I had already been told, and I felt like I was being talked over. My biggest concern is still the employee who initially answered the phone. After one of the disconnections, I called back and asked for her name first because I wanted to know who was disconnecting the calls. I figured if the call got disconnected again, at least I would know who I had spoken with. When I asked for her name, she responded, "Sure," and the call was disconnected. This is another reason I strongly recommend asking for the employee's name at the beginning of the call. I feel like people are less tough when they know you know who they are. If you need to follow up, file a complaint, or reference a specific interaction, having the employee's name can make that process a lot easier. With that being said, I don't need my prescription to be filled here anymore. Goodluck to ya if you have to call this pharmacy.
