    My Husband and I have used the Hoover Walgreens for six years with acceptable prescriptions filled in timely manner. Both written prescriptions and the electrically sent prescriptions. More recently however the situation is not good. My husband had shoulder surgery Monday April 13th. My son in law took the paper prescription mid afternoon to Walgreens and was told that it would be about 30 minutes to an hour to be filled. (oxycodone). In about two hours my family member went to pick up the pain prescription

    During this time (Later that afternoon) we received a phone call from a pharmacy Tech telling us that the Walgreens did not have the medication and they could order it and get it on Wednesday April 15. (My husband is using pain medication from his December hip surgery). I go to Walgreens today 11:15 and am told that the medication has been filled but I cannot get it because they do not have the "hard" copy, they will look for it and call me later today. NOW this will require a fourth trip to Walgreens. This in not right. This is not acceptable. This is not professional. I notice much change in the staff, much confusion and a general atmosphere that this Pharmacy is overwhelmed.

    Doc called in script. Clerk said they didn’t get it. Then said it was under a 10-year-old address in another state. They wouldn’t remove the old “account.” Then they claimed insurance wouldn’t cover, but when I returned with them on the phone, they said they didn’t have the brand. When the insurance company and I said any brand would do, the pharmacist claimed state law prevented her from filling the script that described the medication as x mg of x drug, instead of stating the brand. Exasperated, I asked them to delete my data from their database, and they refused, claiming that only “corporate” could do that. “Corporate” then on the phone read me the old address and then said they didn’t have any records of me in their database. Huh? These people are insane.

    I’ve been a loyal Walgreens customer my entire life—my parents filled my prescriptions here when I was a kid, and I’ve continued that loyalty as an adult. After my recent experiences, but specifically my experience tonight, at the Central Ave location, I’m honestly questioning why. I had a prescription that had been pending for an entire week. I was told it would be ready today, yet I received no updates or communication of any kind. Because I needed it urgently, I called the pharmacy multiple times throughout the day. Each time, my call was either picked up and immediately hung up, or I was left on hold for extremely long periods—over 30 minutes once, and more than 16 minutes another time and then was still hung up on.

    When I finally reached someone, the situation somehow got worse. The woman who answered was shockingly rude, dismissive, and completely unwilling to help. She told me she had been on vacation and had “no idea” what was going on with my prescription. When I asked if she could check with another employee, she refused—not because no one was available, but simply because she didn’t want to. She also said she couldn’t help because it was “late,” even though I had been calling all day and being hung up on.

    She showed zero concern when I explained how frustrating the repeated hang-ups were. She wouldn’t check other Walgreens locations in Hot Springs, wouldn’t look into the delay, and wouldn’t offer any solution at all. The call ended with her giving me a sarcastic, cheerful “no problem” after providing absolutely no assistance.

    This level of customer service is unacceptable. The lack of communication, the repeated hang-ups, and the outright refusal to help were beyond unprofessional. I’ve trusted Walgreens for decades, but this experience at the Central Ave location was genuinely shocking. Walgreens needs to address this immediately. No customer should be treated this way—especially when they’re relying on a time-sensitive prescription.

    My husband gets the same prescription every month and every month it's a nightmare getting the prescription filled. Either they are out of stock, they need to know why he's taking the medication, refuse to fill the script as written or it's "pending" with no time frame on when it will be ready. RIGHT NOW I'm sitting in a Walgreens pharmacy waiting OVER AN HOUR for my husband's prescription and the cashier's attitude was very flippant towards me when I said I needed to wait for it. The cashiers and pharmacists at this location leave a lot to be desired.

    I am writing to share my concerns regarding the pharmacy service at the Walgreens location on 33rd and Boulevard in Edmond, Oklahoma. Unfortunately, the level of customer service at this location has been consistently disappointing. It is extremely difficult to reach the pharmacy by phone, as calls often go unanswered. Additionally, many patients report ongoing issues with their prescriptions not being ready upon arrival, despite prior confirmation or reasonable processing time. This leads to unnecessary delays and frustration, especially for those in need of timely medication.

    Equally concerning is the manner in which patients are treated. Interactions are often perceived as unresponsive, discourteous, and at times even hostile. This is not the level of care and professionalism that patients expect or deserve from a healthcare service provider. As a physician who regularly prescribes medications, I have received repeated negative feedback from my patients regarding this location. Due to these ongoing issues, I have felt compelled to advise patients to consider alternative pharmacies to ensure better service and reliability. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and leads to meaningful improvements in both customer service and prescription management at this location.

    Walgreens Park Avenue, Grand Junction. There is little resolution in writing a review. Nothing changes. But I will write this for my own satisfaction. I started using the pharmacy from Walgreens on Park avenue when my daughter worked there. It was 7 years ago. I get one script filled there, all my other scripts are sent somewhere else. They are the worst. They have closed for days at a time with little warning in the middle of my script being filled because they did not have a pharmacist. They have changed their hours without warning, sometimes being closed on the weekends. The list goes on.

    My doctor writes my medication so that I have a large bottle that lasts 3 months and costs about 55 dollars. When I went to get my refill today the price was 133 dollars. I tried to haggle with them but they said that was the price. When they handed me my script there were 10 little bottles in the bag, that cost WAY more. They never informed me they were making a change. I don't know how they can do this. It is not what my doctor wrote as the script. I will have to jump through some hoops with my doc to get my scripts sent somewhere else. If I have my way I will NEVER use this horrible place again. My daughter said it was the most dysfunctional place she ever worked.

    Went to Walgreens to pick up RX and was told my insurance cancelled end of 2025. I ended up paying full price for an RX I needed. Medical rep called WG to find out why this happened, only to find out their employee(s) transposed some numbers in my insurance info. Also had requested RX refill 10 days ago. Kept getting a 'it should be in soon' robo message. 10 days late I asked what is going on. Pharmacist told me another WG 12+ miles away had this RX in stock and I could go get it there. Would not have it delivered either to me or to their store for pick up. WHAT KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THIS!! The least Walgreens could do is reimburse me for the RX I had to pay for out of my pocket because their employees entered my information incorrectly. Wish I could go elsewhere - insurance says I have to use WG. AAAARRRGGGHHH!!! Rio Rancho User/Northern store.

    Walgreens in Buda has the worst pharmacy customer service in the whole world! When you call in, you have to wait in line for over an hour, and then they usually hang up the phone so they put you back into the queue. I literally have been trying to get a prescription filled for the past 15 days and the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing, and it never gets filled when you go there in person. It appears that they’re short staffed. They’re always very busy and hectic and chaotic. This translates to rude customer service. I’ve never experienced anything like this, and I’ve lived in New York City! I’ll be following a report with the pharmacy board as well.

    Yesterday, I stopped by the drive up window as I always do to pick up my wife's monthly prescription. The pharmacy technician said it would be $13 and some change. I gave my Florida Drivers license, my credit card, and waited. The technician said that they could not release my wife's rx because my driver's license had expired. It is a valid state identification, issued by the free State of Florida. So, I went back today with my wife's driver license, her prescription card, and her medicare card in hand. They still would not let me pick up her rx. This company is stupid. Their employees are stupid. And, as I am a very old fellow, I have a very low tolerance for stupid. Have been a Walgreens customer for about 50 years now. Will be changing to one of the many competitors in the area today. They just lost my business, my wife's business, and my family's business and anyone else that I can come in contact with. Americans vote with their wallets.

    This is the worst pharmacy in America today. They constantly screw up prescriptions, never fill on time, they are driven by greed and overcharge customers they have a completely incompetent customer service and it's usually nonexistent or lazy and incompetent. Every store within a 30 mile radius of me has a 1 star rating out if 5. I'm stuck using the crooked, incompetent crooks this month, but next Rx fill I'm going elsewhere. I post on every site I can to warn others do not use Walgreens. Their stores overcharge on every single item they sell. Their pharmacy only employs incompetent crooks and their corporate office is the worst and does nothing to assist people because they simply do not care one bit about customer service!!!

    I recently left the hospital after 10 days stay at the ICU plus a few at the intermedia PICU. I was prescribed quite a few medications and I now depend on oxygen 24/7 situation that was explained to them in order to get my meds as soon as possible. I did get ZERO meds in time. When I called they blamed me for not calling, the kicker? I did call, was put on hold 3 times, all of them over an hour with no answer. I explained that to them and the employee proceeded to tell me how lucky I was because people have to wait two or more hours to talk to them.

    After that, I have been put on new meds, change meds increase/decrease doses, so I make a point to call to make sure to check on them. They are playing a game with my phone where they pick up my call, laugh on the phone, put me back on hold and do it again and again. Who does that? When I call from my husband's phone I finally got someone. Still they did nothing to get my new meds. My husband ended paying for it (I do have insurance). The joke? At your own pharmacy they charged us for medicine covered by my plan. I am so frustrated that I will make sure to change pharmacy as soon as I get what you already put in for, because my insurance would not pay because you already bill them for.

    I am writing to express my disappointment with the service I received at the Walgreens store on Covington Highway on Saturday, February 21, at approximately noon. Despite visiting this store over 10 times in the past decade, I have never had a more unpleasant experience. Upon entering, I noticed a lengthy queue, which I was willing to accommodate as I was there to use the Western Union service. However, I was disturbed by the interaction between a manager and an elderly customer at the register. The manager was dismissive and rude, directing the customer to check the pharmacy without offering assistance or resolving the issue. Notably, the manager repeatedly stated that she was the only one working on the floor, implying that the customers were somehow responsible for the lack of staffing.

    When it was my turn to use the Western Union service, I greeted the manager with a courteous 'good afternoon' and asked for assistance. Unfortunately, she did not respond, and I had to prompt her to acknowledge my greeting. Due to an issue with my identification, I offered to use my passport, which she initially accepted but then refused, claiming she couldn't proceed with the transaction. After contacting Western Union, I was informed that my passport was a valid form of identification, and the transaction could have been completed. Given the poor service I experienced, I believe Walgreens should review the incident and provide additional training to the manager in question, particularly in customer service and conflict resolution.

    Let me start by saying I am disabled now. I have never in my life been treated so poorly by a company like I do at Walgreens. On top of the fact I am sick and tired of a foreigner at the cash register who speaks no English. I'm sick of the foreigners at my local Walgreens treating me like crap. Walgreens is not a better pharmacy. My entire family hates it hates it. I hate the people because they're disgustingly rude. I hate being on the phone ordering my medicine and it never gets done and then I get excuses excuses excuses as to why they don't do their damn job. There's a ** kid that stands in the drives through and plays on his phone and tells you to wait until he gets a chance to deposit. I am leaving this crappy company for Costco. I can't stand it.

    I have to get a ride up to the pharmacy to get my medicine and they tell me like today I called it in yesterday and I was supposed to get my medicine today but do you think they got it done. No. Now their recording is telling me Monday when it was supposed to be today. Thank you for nothing Walgreens. You suck. You absolutely are the worst company I have ever dealt with and because of it I'm leaving. I am going to go to your competitor Costco pharmacy where I don't have to deal with foreigners at the cash register or idiots that don't speak English and think they can treat people like crap.

    Sorry but you suck and you will always suck. I won't spend another damn dime at your store. I would rather starve not take my medicine and die. I would rather die than go back to your pharmacy. Understand that. You suck. You are absolutely the worst damn company I've ever dealt with. So thank you Walgreens for being the worst company in Washington State.

    I have a life and death illness. I have been trying to get my insulin for about a week now. Every day I get a text saying that it's out of stock. Today I went to the local pharmacy to see if it was in. They said, "No, it's not." So I asked if there was a nearby pharmacy that had it in stock. They told me the town near me had it but I needed to talk to them. So I called the nearby pharmacy and spoke with someone. They said, "Yes we have it in stock", and it will be ready in a hour and a half. I went there after waiting for 2 hours. Got up to the counter and the pharmacy tech told me it was not in stock.
