The staff informed me that my medication was not ready and wouldn't be ready until 2:30 or 2:45. After the pharmacist break. Cool. I'll come back in an hour I guess no problem. That was on me for coming right over after the e.r. Went home came back at 2:45 gave them until 2:50 just incase. walked in to my surprise the gates of the pharmacy were closed. Gave them until 3 am just incase. Come 3 am still nothing. Asked staff if the pharmacy was closed. She informed me they would open back up at 4 am. Now why wasn't I informed of this when I was told medication wouldn't be ready until 2:45, after the pharmacist break. Common curtesy to let someone know "hey we're actually closed from X to X" But neither the staff that was helping or pharmacist bothered to mention "we're closed at x time" Update: returned at 9:45 am. Only to be told it was still not ready and would take another 15 min. Good luck if you are coming from the hospital past 2 am. And if you're not from the area. I get that they are overwhelmed with orders but also let people know if you'll be closed.

The store is very cleaned and organized inside. There wasn't that many guest inside and their pharmacy area was very quiet. They have a lot of different items in here so you'll likely find what you're looking for but the price will vary, it's usually on the higher end which is why I don't come to any CVS much.

Can't get a hold of anyone, get sent to voicemail to play a game of phone tag from hell for the entire day. Then once you get used to the VM hell when you call it will be broken and instead of sending you to VM they put you on hold for over an hour until you realize that no one is monitoring this line or picking it up and it must be bugged. Myself and my husband have called repeatedly and it keeps sending me to a line no one is monitoring. I will get incredibly sick and basically be debilitated or a month if I can't get my medicine but who cares, CVS is printing more money to their shareholders! Who cares if people die! I feel terrible for pharmacy employees who also have to deal with this evil and corrupt company. I can't wait until I move next mo and will be switching to a mom and pop pharmacy. There is ZERO point in continuing to use CVS if they have no customer service and can't even promise my very normal meds that aren't having a shortage are out constantly. I don't know any other business that continuously fails at its job and we keep letting it be a monopoly. CEO of CVS should genuinely be in prison for criminal racketeering.

I needed to pick a few things from CVS, but the pharmacy didn't have the prescriptions I needed. It felt like a nightmare when I first started. The wait time at CVS took almost 20 minutes then I couldn't get what I wanted. After what felt like months, I was told it couldn't be completed. I walked to the other side of the street and found Tarzana Plaza Pharmacy. I was greeted by Michael at the door. He was friendly, warm, and welcoming. The first thing he asked was what do you need? Truly I wasn't sure, I got this prescription and didn't know much about it. He took a look and started explaining how the medicine works. Within a few minutes, I felt better just knowing that someone was there to help me and not just give me what I needed. The pricing was modest, but the service I received was above and beyond anything I could ask for. Michael truly cares about his employees and customers. To the other reviews, give him another chance and try Tarzana Plaza Pharmacy read more

The owner of this pharmacy, Michael, is horrible. I had a prescription for 120 pills. He did not have them all but he had 55 of them. I said fine, I'll take them. But he charged my insurance for 65 pills! Not 55! This is insurance fraud and when I called him on the phone, he was extremely rude and threatened to call the cops if I showed up there. i now have my insurance company investigating the situation. This guy is a LIAR and THIEF and likes to commit insurance fraud. DON'T GIVE HIM YOUR BUSINESS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!! read more
