    Hi, I'm currently taking a medication which I’ve come to learn (over li'l time) is rarely in stock and some of the compounds used are different per manufacturer. I never knew this was a “thing” with different generics. So I found Walgreens in Scranton who carry it (per my Dr.). When I called, I had asked for a manager who was very helpful in explaining it briefly and was willing to honor my Rx monthly even though It's not where I go normally due to the distance from my home. So I’d like to thank him for doing this, I explained the terrible side effects I had before and almost stopped the medication as it was introduced to me late in life. Extremely different results per manuf. brand. Thank you again Walgreens (mgmt.) for helping me stabilize my life because it's crazy enough! Kudos to you and your team! Doing much better in Pa!

      The girl working the cash register at 10:20 pm on 9/30/26 at 5345 N Interstate Hwy 35, Austin, TX 78723 was extremely rude to me. As a paying customer, I entered the register area and rang the bell for help because they put locks on their bathrooms. I waited back there for 10 minutes while the associate ignored me. I finally came out and up to the front desk, and she raised her voice to yell to me that the restrooms were "closed" because I guess she didn't want to have to run back there to do her job. I

      told her I didn't know because there was no sign and she told me that the umbrella rack she rolled in front of the bathroom area should have been enough to tell me they were closed, implying I'm dumb in front of other customers and said I should have figured it out. It's currently night time, so I thought maybe shelves were being stocked and things were moved around. She was already clearly irritated with me when I walked up and was horribly unprofessional. I would have been completely fine using the restroom somewhere else, but her attitude was embarrassing and confrontational. I will never ever come back. and will make sure that nobody I know does either.

      HORRIBLE!!! EVERY TIME I go pick up my prescriptions in the drive-thru, it takes FOREVER-no exaggeration. Today I got behind 2 cars and waited FORTY MINUTES before I even got to the window. It got to the point that a bunch of us drivers in line were hanging out our windows and raging at each other about how ridiculous that place is. And it's not just the one I was at on Albermarle Road in Charlotte. It's ALL of them. They have ONE PERSON at the inside window AND the drive thru who also answers the phone if they feel like it. And those employees do NOT rush. Why should they at what they get paid? Yesterday, I called to ask why my script was delayed.

      After being on hold for 18 minutes, I submitted a feedback form telling them how horrible they are. Within the hour, I got a text saying it was ready to pick up. No call, email or text with an apology. I understand that good Customer Service is a thing of the past, and I hate it. But those people just DON'T CARE!!! They've lost my business, and I'm sure they don't care about that either. If they can't hire enough staff, they should close down.

      The Walgreens pharmacy is absolutely horrendous! I was very rudely told after having to wait in line forever inside and outside at the drive-through that they were going to lunch and I had to come back. I was like how on earth can you be so insanely rude to somebody that is giving you their money for a service?! I was so shocked that they just literally pulled the blind on me and told me to go away. I could not believe that and that is only one instance.

      They have also failed to give me the appropriate of amount of medication than what was actually prescribed by my doctor and their customer service is absolutely horrendous, especially on the phone. You try to call them anytime at all and the only thing you hear is you are the fifth person in line. Your wait time is 5000 hours. I'm thinking what in the... I don't know if they're just shortstaffed or if they're completely incompetent. I don't know but whatever the issue is they need to fix it or they're going to go under. I think they are literally the worst Pharmacy I have ever had to do business with, and I won't be anymore.

      If I could give this pharmacy 0 stars I would. Walgreens is the closest pharmacy to my house and I have tried over and over again to use them but every single time I leave angry and disappointed. They will not have the medicine in stock but say nothing about it then I go to pick it up and they tell me. They tell you a time its going to be ready then you wait in line for 45 minutes just for them to tell you it will be another hour. This last time did it for me though- my 5 year old was sick off and on for almost 3 weeks I took her to the ER she had strep throat and impetigo. I thought since both of her prescriptions were easy kids antibiotics it would be fine. I was wrong. They didn’t have either medicine when my husband went to get it and when I called them to ask them to send to a different pharmacy pharmacy, the lady was rude then hung up. Not only will I never use this pharmacy again, I will avoid Walgreens altogether for the rest of my life.

      This review is for Walgreens, Pharmacy, 3040 W. Michigan Ave. Jackson, MI, store manager, Michael and Pharmacy Mgr, Julie ** and Pharmacy Tech, Sarah. In May of this year, I contacted this pharmacy and spoke to Pharmacy Mgr, regarding transferring my medications from another pharmacy, due to recently moving to Jackson, MI. Because of the nature of medications that my doctor prescribes to me, I wanted clarification, from Walgreens, on their policies on filling schedule medications, she explained to me Walgreens policies. Not once did she or any other employee of Walgreens, bring up that your doctor has to be in a 50 mile radius of the pharmacy.

      My first RX was on 5/19/26, on 6/29/26, when my 2nd RX was filled, I had called and spoke to pharmacy to let them know that I no longer had insurance and inquired on using a discount card, Julie, the pharmacy manager, herself, was on the phone with me, when she mentioned, that she seen that my doctor, was outside the 50 mile radius and I told her that yes, and that I had never had anyone inquire about that, but explained to her my doctor used to be at another location and then relocated to Monroe, MI and I did not want to change primary physician, so I drive to Monroe, MI for my visits. She said that she understood and proceeded to fill my prescriptions, she never stated that it was only for one month, then she couldn't anymore. Then I filled my 8/3/26 rx's and not once did the subject come up and I used the discount card again.

      Yesterday, 9/3/26, my primary sent over to Walgreens, my refills, yet once again. The only thing that changed, is that I called the pharmacy, to be proactive, to let them know, that I have Michigan Health Plan (Straight Medicaid), spoke to Sarah and provided her my ID#, although she was not able to find me in the medicaid system, she told me just to bring the approval letter in.

      Therefore, today, 9/4/26, I called DHS, and got the correct ID#, then immediately called Walgreens, to give the pharmacy the number and to apologize for missing a call, from earlier. Only to be told by Pharmacy Tech who answered the phone, that one medicine was on order and the other could not be filled because my Doctor was outside the 50 mile radius. I told her that it was ok once before and she asked me to hold and Julie ** gets on the line, pharmacy mgr, and she said she wanted to know why my doctor was prescribing me a stimulant and a pain medicine and that she felt my doctor should not do this.

      I am so taken back by this, I get you have guidelines and policies and I am absolutely on board with Walgreens' rule about the 50 mile radius, however, I have been filling my medicines, the same medicines, since May of 2026, and now she feels my doctor is wrong, or is it I have Medicaid?? None of this came up on 8/3/26, nor did Walgreens ever ask me or tell me that I would either have to get another pharmacy or another doctor, because my Dr is outside of the 50 mile radius. Julie transfers me to Store Mgr, Michael and he proceeds to make excuses and says I should have known they were giving me a courtesy, and I should have known it would have to change. Hello, how am I going to know without Walgreens stating, we will fill this for you this month (6/29/26), but we will not be able to do it again, but to turn around and fill them on 8/3/26, with no questions.

      I understand the liabilities that the pharmacy/doctors have, especially filling rx's of opiates and other schedule medications, I have a niece who is a pharmacist, but to deliberately withhold medications, from me, is wrong, especially on a holiday weekend, when doctors' offices, sometimes close earlier and I am out of medication. I am not a junkie and I am not a pill seeker or a person who uses several pharmacies and I am very familiar with the MAPS system, I was in healthcare. I go to my scheduled doctor visits and I sign and abide by my pain contract with my physician, so tell me Walgreens, WHY is it because I am on Medicaid and you are not getting a kickback or making a certain %.? I can answer this, because you employ people that are not consistent in their duties to carry out these policies and when you discover that you made a mistake, you punish and stereotype me, because of a medicine I take.

      Since Julie thinks she knows my medical history and feels she can make decisions for my primary physician, then she clearly knows withholding my medication, because thinks my primary physician does not know what she is doing, then she knows it is ILLEGAL. I am sending this to the State of Michigan as well as the Michigan Board of Pharmacy, Michigan Bureau of Professional Licensing, Michigan Department of Insurance and the Michigan Attorney General.

      I waited for a week or so to get a prescription filled, which seemed to be a problem because it was not covered by my insurance, so they just did not fill it. When I went to the store to get it filled and wanted to pay cash, they only had 55 pills. When I showed them the discount coupon from the online website, calculated for 120 pills for $15.00 I still paid $18 for 55. When I contacted them today I was informed that it would be $27 for 120 pills, instead of the $15 coupon.

      The Nashboro Village pharmacy lets one patient park in its drive through while other patients wait over 35 minutes and then abuses the senior cancer patient refusing to give her the medication she’s been waiting on and tells her if she wants it she will have to come inside, exposing herself to many people who may have contagious illnesses, forcing her to walk when she’s already suffering, in addition to withholding needed medication prescribed by her oncologist. So if you support abuse, abuse of a 66-year old, abuse of a 66-year old cancer patient, and abuse by withholding medication to treat a condition caused by the cancer treatment, give Walgreens more business. If, on the other hand, you want to be served by non-abusive and actual providers, transfer to Publix at Mt View or and it may also save you money. My old cancer self saved $13.

      Staff generally appear disengaged and overly relaxed, as though they’ve forgotten that they’re handling medication—not cheeseburgers. More concerning, similarly situated patients receive very different levels of service. Spanish-speaking patients seem to receive better service, while non-Spanish speakers struggle to communicate and often receive the opposite experience.

      My parents are elderly and have multiple health conditions. They have been picking up their prescriptions from the Walgreens on 100 SE in Arlington, Texas, for the last 10 years. However, over the past year or so, we have experienced numerous problems. On multiple occasions, prescriptions appear as "ready" in the app, but when we arrive at the store to pick them up, they are not ready. I have been very patient, but this latest incident was the final straw.

      My mother suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and relies on specific medications for her memory and sleep. Last week, I ordered three of her necessary medications through the app as I always do, and they showed up as ready for pickup. When my father went to retrieve them, he was told the prescriptions had been sent to another location without our consent. At this point, my mother had only three pills left. My dad called me and put the person on duty on the phone, who could not explain what happened but promised to transfer all three medications back to this store and have them ready by Tuesday (three days later). When Tuesday arrived, only one medication was ready. Two days after that, the second prescription was ready, but the sleeping medication was still missing. By this time, my mother was completely out of her sleep medication, which is a critical issue for an Alzheimer’s patient.

      When I checked the app again on Saturday, it finally listed the sleeping medication as ready for pickup. My dad drove back to Walgreens, only to be told yet again that it was still at the other location. I spoke with the person on duty over the phone to find out what happened, but instead of taking responsibility, she tried to blame the doctor, my dad, me, and everyone else. She was extremely disrespectful, failed to apologize, and refused to take any accountability for their repeated mistakes. My parents have ALWAYS picked up their prescriptions at this specific location, and these were not new prescriptions. I am extremely disappointed with how business is handled at this store. They are playing with people’s health and showing complete disregard for their patients' well-being.

      I've refilled through the Walgreens app consistently, always about a week ahead. Multiple times, they've cancelled the prescription the same day it was due and restarted the process from scratch—no notice, no explanation. I've called ahead specifically to confirm a prescription would be ready, only to find out it was never actually ordered, or it wasn't there when I was told it would be.

      Customer service has been consistently rude, with an attitude that filling a prescription you've already paid for is some kind of favor rather than their job. Twice I was left nearly 4 days without my medication after being told they didn't have it—both times, my wife went in and walked out with the prescription within minutes of being told it wasn't available. I'm not someone who likes confrontation, so I generally just accept what I'm told at face value. That's exactly the problem: this pharmacy seems to bank on people not pushing back. If you're not prepared to argue for medication you already paid for, do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.

Now it's Saturday, the doctor's office is closed and I can't get my medication. Every time it's the same old b.s., my psychiatrist sends in 3 prescriptions, I get a text message do I want to fill this prescription right now, I say no, 30 minutes later I get a message from Walgreens "It's too soon to fill your prescription", 1 prescription just got tossed into the garbage bucket for no reason at all. I see 2 more prescriptions available and like a normal person that KNOWS I cannot fill my prescription early because it is a class II substance, I wait until the day I can fill it.

      The second month and third months are about the same, I have to call for a new perscription everytime. I call the Walgreens and get the same old b.s. "we don't have any prescriptions on file for you" and they try acting like I'm the stupid one, when every time the psychiatrist agrees with me and says she sent the prescriptions right and they should all be there and they shouldn't be disappearing. So either I'm stuck on the phone at work for 20-45 minutes because I have to call the pharmacy then the doctor's office back and forth, which sucks because I'm at WORK! Like I'm not suppose to be doing that and the managers don't like that and it's just a stupid situation to be in.

      On top of that when I try explaining to the pharmacy whether the local office or the corporate office the prescriptions go on auto refill for NO REASON AT ALL, and the first prescription gets chucked in the garbage "they don't know what I'm talking about". Either I'm stuck at work making real long phone calls during work hours, which the managers don't like, or it's a weekend and the doctor's office is closed and I can't get a prescription sent in which is dumb. No one is capable of properly explaining to me why my prescriptions keep disappearing and it's real annoying. Also real hard to get another prescription on time, every time I'm ready for a refill I already assume I'm going to have a stressful day.

I asked why it would take 3 days to fill and what did she mean it was scheduled to be filled at 11:30? At that point, she told me I could wait 15-20 minutes and they could have it. I had an appointment, couldn't wait and left.

      I came back after my appointment about 11 am. It was not filled yet. She told me that they were getting a shipment tomorrow. I said I was told when I came in earlier that it would be ready this morning. She said if I waited, they could get it. I asked why she told me they were getting a delivery the next day if they had a sufficient supply there. No answer. They close for lunch at 11 am and we're pulling out the gate that they use to close off the pharmacy counter.

      I waited for the medicine. They called me when they had it. She told me my insurance wasn't in their system. I said I have had a couple of other prescriptions earlier this year. It should be there. She said she could get the information. On my way out, I talked to the store manager. It shouldn't take 3 days to get meds. It shouldn't be such a hassle.

      I would Highly recommend shopping around before considering Walgreens. This company completely overcharges customers. I purchased a medication from them for my pet, and about fell in the floor when I went to check out and the pharmacist told me the price was $460.00. After I got home I went online and shopped around for that same medication at other legit online pharmacies like petmeds.com, chewy.com, etc, and everywhere I checked I could buy that exact same medication for around $70.00. I couldn't believe how much they overcharged me, especially since I have been out of work for a couple months and literally don't know how I am going to pay my bills next months. This company took advantage of me and I'm sure they do the same to others. Shame on this company!

      My doctor called in a prescription for me to Walgreens at 1:30 on Wednesday. It was for a "Z" pack (azithromycin). Here it is 9:30 on Thursday and I still haven't heard from them. If you don't know, a Z pack is prepackaged in a blister pack, so it simply has to be taken out of a box and put in a paper bag. I won't use Walgreens again.

      Walgreens Pharmacy has went downhill tremendously!! They leave you on hold forever! Temporarily close down whenever they feel like it, and don't care if you get your medication! I'm constantly fighting to get my son's seizure medications! It should not be this difficult!!

      This review is for Walgreens pharmacy in Shorewood WI. Staff are not friendly, and I don't understand why they are unhappy when other customers and I apply discount coupon to pay for drugs. Drugs are so expensive, and we need coupons to help saving some bucks. I believe the staff will do the same when they need to pay for drugs for themselves and relatives. Walgreens needs to screen people when recruiting people for a job. Please don't hire if they don't have a service mind. They should go work with non-humans instead.

      I dropped off a prescription at the Walgreens on hwy 42 in Prairieville on July 3rd. This is a compound liquid prescription for my cancer treatments. They told me they have all the ingredients but 1. They told me they would order it and call me the following week. I called today to check on it (July 12th) since I hadn't heard from them. They told me they have no record of ever receiving it. I told them what time I was there and exactly what the employee said about the delay. I sat on hold and when they came back on, they said to just have my Dr. call in another one tomorrow. She then told me that there would still be a delay because the statin and the lidocaine are both on back order. I asked her, if have no record of this prescription being dropped off, how do you know that these two drugs are in it? She told me it was just a guess. I warn anyone using that pharmacy to stop. It's like a runaway train in there. Incompetence from bottom to top.

      The pharmacy in Glenview Illinois is severely understaffed. Calls are left unanswered, or you are put on hold so long you just end up hanging up. The violation of HIPAA is egregious. The drive through speaker is often broken and you have to shout all your information to the person inside (name/date of birth/address, etc). The same is true when you use the pharmacy inside. Your personal details are asked for and repeated for everyone in the line to hear, and they call out the medication you are picking up.
