Walgreens

This place sucks. I can’t make it simpler than that. They not only suck but they falsify their documentation. I’m a disabled middle-​aged male with chronic pain due to 3 blown disks in the lumbar region of my back. The disks blew out in early ’07. I’ve done PT. My PT was so aggressive it blew out my ACL. The ACL has since healed but it froze the PT. Surgery isn’t an option due to vertebral alignment. That leaves pain killers.
I’ve been on pain killers since the fall of ’07 after I exhausted my PT option. In Oregon, my state of residence, the pharmacist doesn’t treat me like a junkie. That might be because I’ve never tried to fill early. I never told my MD that the pills fell in the toilet, etc.
I’ve been in CA since the summer of ’15 and since my pharmacy in OR is the big W, I had my narcotic and 7 non-​narcotic prescriptions transferred.
Huge mistake. I have very little trouble with getting my cardiac meds, diuretics, and diabetes meds filled. I also have very little difficulty with getting Alprazolam; a Schedule IV anxiolytic used off label to control tachycardia, a heart condition. My pain medication, Oxycodone, well, that’s another matter.
In December they held up dispensing the medication for 10 days while they were «ordering» it. The following month, January of this year, they held the medication for 19 days due to «ordering» issues.
I talked to an assistant pharmacist who let slip that this isn’t usually a problem but their warehouse has decided that their store has exceeded their quota for 15mg Oxycodone tablets. This was a Friday, 14 days after I’d dropped off my Rx. He asked me to give him until Monday to resolve it. On Wednesday I picked up my prescription.
On every prescription bottle there are three (3) dates in fairly small print usually in the bottom right-​hand corner. They are the origination date, the pharmacy fill date and the expiration date. On my bottle, even though it took them 19 days to fill it, the origination date and the fill date are the same. They labeled my meds as if they were filled on the same day that the Rx was dropped off. If they’ll violate state and DEA regulations would it be impossible for them to put the wrong drugs in your bottle and then alter their records?

Took 7 hours to get a prescription filled for a very sick infant and even once filled they had not bothered within all that time to determine the insurance contribution. Horrible and slow service. Next time will definitely find a more competent pharmacy.

The new Pharmacists are amazing. What I used to consider one of the not as greatest in Hemet, has really turned out to be the other way around. Great consideration. The general store and staff are actually pretty cool and capable! Thank you!

They freakin sick here. Don’t even use the drive thru. There’s no reason to even have a drive thru if you’ve got to wait this long… Pick up or drop.

First of all I only come here because it’s 24hr pharmacy and I have a hectic work schedule so it’s convenient. The area is absolutely horrible but it’s getting worse everywhere in Hemet but just be careful going in and out of here no matter what time of day it is. I really appreciate that the pharmacy is quick but the staff is horrible, if they smiled their face would crack, always seem to be miserable and have an attitude. They don’t realize the expression on their face seems really harsh. Another thing is one time I went to the drive up window and I seen inside no customers were there and I was the only car and I see two girls just talking and not doing anything so I waited and waited for almost 5 mins then I realized I never pushed the call button then I finally got help. I shouldn’t have to push the button, they saw me right there waiting. I just wish to be acknowledged and be served in a friendly manner, I’m sure if they are not happy working here there are plenty of unemployed hardworking joyful people who would be happy to be working.

The staff is ok, but the service has been better, for one thing, the rewards card i have apparently someone else has one under the same number, and i could tell the checker repeatedly that the account is under melissa. But they always put my points under someone elses, and it is bs

We deal with this Walgreens for prescriptions because it’s open 24 hours a day very on the ball friendly staff

The lines here are outrageous. Customer service barely exists and the attitudes are horrible. TAMMY, the shift lead on Saturday, was RUDE. She tried to cover up that we waited for her for 20 minutes by discounting some items. I guess they think they can treat customers like crap since alot of the people I saw in here were tweakers.

Was on hold for 18 minutes the first time and 21 minutes the second time for pharmacy. Very poor organization by pharmacy manager and pharmacy staff looked frantic. Too scary for me to get my meds filled there.

Okay those who know me know I don’t normally give 5 stars but I have to give credit when credit is due. I called ahead with an issue and I was transferred to Mr. Johnson who said he would check and call me back. To my surprise he did call me back in less then 30 mins with a resolution. When I got to store later that day, Mr. Johnson had Ruben help me. Most awesome cashier ever. He is by far their best cashier and believe me I know cashiers. He helped me at the register and totally multitasked (I know crazy for a guy right) by greeting customers and still helping me. great job ty

It is true that this Walgreens has some shady people lingering around after dark, it’s like that all the way down Florida really, prostitutes, tweekers, and other miscellaneous undesirable types.
The past 3 times I’ve gone there they had only one cashier and at least 6 – 7 people waiting, in the middle of the day mind you. I only visit this store late night if I absolutely have to.

Store is nice, but speed walk to your car when you leave before shirtless tweekers ask for money.

worst walgreens ever!!!
