Safeway Pharmacy

So, I had to switch pharmacies due to Walgreen’s not carrying Express Scripts anymore. I decided to give Safeway a chance because they were offering a $ 50 gift certificate to all transfers, which is awesome, right? BIG mistake. I’ve been going here about 8 months now, and tonight was the final straw. I’ve tried to be patient with them, I’ve tried to reason with them, and I’ve tried talking to the actual pharmacist about the issues. However, despite my nice and patient demeanor, they’ve completely destroyed all faith I had in them. For example, they are always out of my prescription, even though I get it refilled like clockwork every single month. The pharmacist was supposed to order it for me, and even put me on the autofill so they would always have it. It’s been 3 months since that happened and every month is still the same problem. They even had to transfer the prescription to Puyallup because they didn’t have it yet! Two months ago, they had to call my doctor to get a refill order on another drug that I take everyday, every month. THEY CALLED THE WRONG DOCTOR! THREE times!!! I ended up standing in line and while they were trying to call my doctor for the 4^th time, I called the doctor and fixed the whole mess. They were trying to pass on the order to an emergency room doctor that had NOTHING to do with the prescription in question. Are they just not paying attention? Did they just totally ignore me when I gave them the direct phone number after they said they called the second time? Who knows? They had no answers. Last month, they gave me the wrong dosage on a medication. Here’s the crazy part: on the bottle, it says it’s the correct dosage. After a few days of taking the med and noticing a big difference in how I should be feeling, I did some research myself and found that the pill they gave me was half as strong as my prescription. And you know what they said? They said that couldn’t be true, that the label has to be correct. I can keep going, but you get the picture I think. Do yourself and your loved ones a favor: don’t fill your prescriptions here. You may not be getting what you’re supposed to, and they won’t fix it.
