Cvs Pharmacy

This review is just for the pharmacy:
I came here at 4:30 & waited over 1.5 hours for 1 prescription. They are so slow it’s ridiculous. Not to mention. That the majority of the pharmacy techs were rude & snarky to the customers. I wish smaller pharmacies were still in existence. This was a huge sh*t show. Highly disorganized.

Upon my entrance to this CVS location I took a second and thought, «Why do people go to CVS?» And I realized, no one likes to necessarily go to CVS but its one of those shi**y places you just have no choice but to go. As i went to the register I kindly asked the cashier if they accept Apple Pay. He responded, «no.» So i said jokingly that CVS was slacking. Turns out the dude working has a burning passion for the company and will put you in your place if you talk shit about the big 3 (C-​V-​S). He misheard me and thought i said «CVS sucks» damn did this guy snap for a second until i corrected him. Lets just say i looked it up and walgreens accepts apple pay, but ill stick with CVS because there is nothing better than a good argument at the check out counter.

Bad, bad, bad. These jerks should be out of business. I needed to fill a prescription early because I will be out of the country for 3 weeks. It took four visits to the store and three phone calls from my PCP to get this done. They don’t seen to care one way or the other wether or not your needs are being met. Save yourself some grief and don’t go there.

This CVS caters to the low lives who live in the general vicinity. Although the dropping of tobacco sales by CVS as a whole seems to have lessened the amount at times. The pharmacy is jammed full with Masshealth recipients, so don’t plan on any quick medicine pick ups. The staff, while nice, looks burned out from being over worked and fatigued from dealing with the less than desirable clientele.

Went in here tonight and the staff was all so friendly. The guy working the front checkout had a great personality and talked to me while helping me without making me feel like i was putting him out. Plus they were the only cvs around that actually had what I was looking for.

This review is for the pharmacy. I usually use North Bev, but was in a rush and this was on the way. Joselyn, the pharmacist I spoke with was absolutely incredible. She was super knowledge, prompt and friendly. She got my prescription right away for me (it had been expired but I really needed it). I wish she was always my pharmacist, I love smart, friendly people!

Staff turnover is high. Rude customers here all the time. I always try to run in and out, which can be difficult because they always have only one person at a register, who is usually new.

Been here a couple times in the past few weeks.
I was pleasantly surprised at how clean and well stocked the store was… often the big box stores are not.
I got pictures printed here as well which turned out great also.
The staff that I have been helped by always seemed very nice and willing to help me find what I was looking for too.

I live directly across the street from this location. I was very pleased when they opened. I mean, what could be more convenient, then having a well stocked, CVS Pharmacy right over the way! Sadly, I do smoke. I smoke a pipe. I am a man aged 61 years. Every time I enter this CVS to purchase my bi-​daily tobacco fix, I am asked to provide a photo ID! This is true if I see the same clerk time and time again.
Note that the law requires tobacco retailers to ask for identification before selling tobacco products, if the clerk believes the person who is buying the product is under the age of 27. I am very obviously a little older than 27!
One of the nice things about a neighborhood store is that you get to be known by the store employees. It can become a welcome social event and it gives a sense of belonging. When these nincompoops keep asking for an ID, from their repeat customers, you get the feeling that they could really care less about developing any neighborhood feeling or developing a relationship with their neighborhood customers!
Just BIG business, out to grab every cent that they can.
I will be loyal to a store, which makes me feel welcome. I will purchase any number of other products while I am in the store, adding to the stores bottom line. But when a store treats me as a «new» arrival every time I walk through the door, I am out of there.
Please note that there are other CVS Pharmacies on the Northshore, which offer a much more pleasant shopping experience than one gets at this CVS Pharmacy on Rantoul St. in Beverly.
