When having difficulty using my OTC App he made me feel good about my technical limitations. He deals with so many personalities and always remains calm and helpful. Although I would be sad if he left the store, I highly recommend him to move way up in management. Thank you CVS and Chris!

I had a very disappointing experience at this CVS Pharmacy location due to the pharmacist, Michelle…read moreT (like "Tango," as she identified herself). Her demeanor was blunt and unnecessarily rude, which made the interaction uncomfortable from the start. I came in requesting a simple flu shot. She refused, stating that there was a line. At the time, two people were being helped and only one person was waiting. When I asked for clarification, she stated word for word that she was "very overwhelmed with work right now" and that because there was a line and she was overwhelmed, she could refuse to provide the service. While I understand that pharmacies can get busy and staff can feel stretched thin, the way this was communicated -- and the outright refusal despite minimal wait -- felt dismissive and unprofessional. A flu shot is a standard service that CVS promotes as readily available, and I expected a more customer-focused response. If you're looking for better service, I recommend visiting the CVS on El Camino. They are open later, tend to be less busy, and provide a much more positive pharmacy experience.

Always took me back when I walked in and he remembered my full name. On top of that, the technicians and other pharmacists are always so nice and helpful. Its a perfect example of a locally owned, "moms and pops" business I continue to use over the connivence of the "big box stores". Any problems, they will call you. Wait times are far less than CVS or the pharmacies in the grocery stores. Moira is also awesome and answered all my questions. I prioritize efficiency in my life and they are a rare example of being all aspects - efficient, knowledgeable, friendly, and so welcoming.

The big pharmacies are pathetic now...operating by AI robotic phone attendants that can't get information right, zero customer service, out of meds, dirty facility, unfriendly service, very very difficult to reach a HUMAN, and prices way higher! I desperately needed special yet very standard Tobradex antibiotic eyedrops...CVS didn't have them in stock, Von's didn't have them in stock (at least you can reach a human at Von's however!) but North Coast had the drops and at $85 vs CVS @ $260..what?!? Crazy. North Coast has great people who actually care and really hustled to get my prescription transferred from the out-of-stock CVS's to their pharmacy in record time and on a Saturday! Shout out to the best pharmacy in all of San Diego!

It honestly seems counterintuitive to leave a review being that their rating is so low and the…read morestandards there are just awful. And I don't necessarily mean from a service standpoint because I feel great empathy for the employees. It's the company's lack of care for the customer experience overall. From pharmacy to convenience store, they are terrible. Overpriced, out of stock, under trained, unreliable, inconsistent, and do not care. Selling bad gift cards, damaged goods, expired convenience grabs like milk (if they have it in stock) and expired health care and wellness vitamins and supplements. It's deplorable! You never know if your item was merchandised correctly so always have to triple check the size and brand against the signage, can't trust that it is going to ring up at the correct price. They're the only drive thru pharmacy left since Walgreens and Rite-Aid both closed but it is hit or miss whether it's open or not. The phone system is terrible, literally impossible to speak directly with a human and they have the worst inventory control ever. Can't keep 4x6 photo paper in stock for their very busy 1 hour photo business... More importantly, they're out of prescription medication all the time too. How irresponsible to be out of stock on life-saving prescriptions, especially for patients who have regularly monthly refills that are easily tracked by a POS system. They should never be out of stock unless all manufacturers are out of stock but it happens all of the time. Planning systems easily predict buying needs to near perfection, evading loss and keeping stores stocked even in the event of an influx of use. Why aren't patients needs top priority? And why is the restock time unpredictable and unreliable and often requiring the patient to follow up via a phone system that doesn't work?! As one of the largest Distributors of drugs, having bought up so much market share why aren't they being held accountable to responsible health care? Gelsons was amazing... closed. Vons was great.... Closed I really don't like anything CVS because of how much joy & time I know they're going to suck from me every time. They even make shopping for greeting cards miserable. (Horrible selection and disorganized) Hard Pass!

Prescriptions marked as due to be picked up that we're already picked up, more pills in bottle than perscribed, no notification when they do not have you prescription (for pain!), the inability to merge prescriptions so the picked up day is the same.

Situated in its own dedicated parking lot along the main road within Solana Beach, CVS gets quite a bit of foot traffic from pedestrians out on their daily walk, run, and swim. The lot is typically vacant for shoppers so it's a convenient stop to get things quick. I came in specifically to stock up on sunscreen during my visit to San Diego county as I had forgotten to pack it in my luggage. When you're in sunny San Diego, you better lather up before you burn! As I walked in the store, the staff greeted me and as I was browsing the aisles, they inquired and directed me to where I needed to go for the sunblock options. I appreciated them taking time out of their morning restocking and inventory runs to help me out. The sunblock section was organized and had nearly every brand you could have wanted including the Blue Lizard one we typically use. Sprays and lotions were available with varying SPF ratings. To top things off, many of them had deals to earn you additional CVS cash that can be used at the store for future purchases. When I went to go pay, they primarily had self checkout kiosks. It was quick and easy but should you need any assistance, the staff are at the ready to get you sorted. Overall, CVS shines in its convenience and this one is well stocked for all of your everyday needs. What truly makes the difference for me was the level of customer service offered from the first step in the store to the checkout process. I was satisfied with my experience with the store because of its friendly staff and the abundance of options for each type of item. When the need arises, CVS has what you need when you need it!
