CVS pharmacy

My daughter who is 13 was in an accident. After leaving the hospital we decided to have her medicines filled by our hometown pharmacy or cvs. We looked online made sure they were open and it stayed on the website that they are open till 9:30pm, we got there at 9:15 and were refused service because they were closing. So now my child has to be in pain all night because none of the 3 people in the pharmacy wanted to do their job.

My son, who has ADHD, has been taking this medication for years. Recently, it's become more and more difficult to obtain this medication at CVS. The dosage and quantity hasn't changed in some time, but for some reason, CVS can't seem to order it in time and fill the prescription before he runs out.in the past few months, I've been misinformed by the...

This is to make a statement of dissatisfaction of service and helpfulness of your pharmacy staff. I have been trying to fill a prescription for Alprazolam, this medication has been used for myself for years, and is very helpful. Originally the prescription was denied by OptumRX, I appealed it and was approved receiving a call from OptumRX that is was ready...

CVS pharmacy

Every month I get my prescription filled it is a different generics ! There is one or two different generics I can't take. Every time I ask Pharmacist is they can order one that doesn't make me sick they say No we only get what we get and that's it. I am older and have multiple diseases so my meds are important to me. I try to be very nice yet this 1 Pharmacist and only this one is never ever helpful or nice. It's like she doesn't want to be helpful just short and curt. Every other Pharmacist in this store is great. Bottom line why can't CVS just help getting the patients their generic that doesn't make them ill? Every month a different one which everyone knows different fillets which make us with autoimmune problems sick ? Thank you

I have started using a newer medication called vyvanse and the first time my doctor gave me a 3 month prescription. When I went to fill the 3rd month, I was told it had expired. The script only runs for 60 days and if you aren't aware of this, that 3rd month becomes unavailable. I was not told of this, yet have been a loyal and regular customer of cvs for...

I just got out of the hospital and had an antibiotic called in yesterday morning. My husband came at 6:45 that night and they said that it wasn't ready and that it would be ready by 6:00 at the latest tomorrow. So I called them at 6:00 PM today to see if it was ready and they said it would be 30 minutes until it was ready. I then got there at 7:30 and they...

I dropped my daughter's script off and they told me it would be ready in 30 minutes so I ran some other errands. When I came back 45 minutes later it wasn't ready because the medication required a prior authorization (which no one bothered to call me and let me know). I looked up the med. on goodrx and asked them to use this coupon and I would pay for it...

CVS calling in a prescription

CVS in Kingman Arizona takes over 20 minutes to answer the telephone and then places the prescriber on indefinite hold. Using the voice mail means that the patient never receives the prescription because no employee acknowledges the voice mail prescription. The pharmacy staff are rude with lame excuses. I generally recommend that patients use a pharmacy that cares and CVS is not a pharmacy that cares.

Ana was the most rude employee I've dealt with in a long time. To ask a question and have an employee roll their eyes and huff, puff & sigh... I won't be going back to that store. Apparently "customer service" at CVS just isn't the same as other stores. I was given attitude from this woman twice, twice to often. I brought this to the attention of another...

CVS adynovate

Have been a customer for over 20 years and having a chronic disease (hemophilia) I have ordered product frequently. For approx. 7 of those years I dealt with a Rep that through her personalized and thorough customer service improved my life and made me believe CVS was a great company. After some kind of reorganization she was gone and things changed drastically, and unfortunately we have found it extremely difficult to get the product and your staff is unwilling to do their jobs and follow through on what they say they will do. Unfortunately the stereotype of the big uncaring Drug Co. unwilling to go out of their way to help anyone but themselves has been closer to my experience in recent years .As one using a medically essential product, physical discomfort, mental anguish, even perhaps some permanent damage has occurred as a result of your lazy, self serving policies. This is the voice of the free enterprise consumer talking . GET back to legitimate Customer Service! My name is Rick Friesen BD 09/17/53

Someone should throw a tent over this circus. If there is one person in that pharmacy that knows what they are doing I could not find one. !. It takes an average of about 45 mins to pick up a prescription. 2. Yesterday I went there about 4:00 I person with no ID tried to charge me full price for an RX and I told her she did not apply my ins. discount. She left me and went and looked on her pc but did not come back to me. About 10 mins later, I tried to get her attention but couldn't I had to yell out "What are you doing" ( she was filling prescription orders) She replied by (shaking her head from side to side) sarcastically. I am checking your insurance! I was shocked. 3. Every time I go to pick up an Rx they do not apply the insurance payment that leads me to believe they are always trying to get me to pay full price. 4. They are not attentive to customers. Instead of waiting on them, they just roam around. They spend time just doing busywork. 5. I have noticed they do not answer the phone calls timely. Someone with authority should pay a visit to this store.

CVS ice canyon spring water

To whom it may concern

My family and I were on vacation in Boston and Cambridge from 3 July to 16 July 2019, and we bought and consume Ice Canyon Spring Water (15 bottle pack) on 3 separate occasions (ie 45 bottles in total). We subsequently read in the press that the Massachusetts Department of Public Health had issued warning to the public that Ice Canyon Spring Water contains a chemical known as PFAS that poses health risks to human.

My family and I were upset and disappointed that CVS was selling a contaminated product on its shelf.

Could you please comment (i) when did CVS become aware of the warning from the Massachusetts health authorities on Ice Canyon Spring Water? (ii) when did CVS pull Ice Canyon Spring Water off its shelf? and (iii) any further update on the contamination of Ice Canyon Spring Water since the publication of the product warning?

We look forward to hearing back from you. If you need further details, please do not hesitate to contact me on [protected]@yahoo.com or +852 [protected].

CVS a broken fax machine so physicians office’s prescription fax can’t go through

My doctor ordered 2 prescriptions for me. The nurse faxed to CVS in Valdosta GA . After not getting a text, I started trying to call CVS at 4:00pm. I was on hold for 25, the first time, and 35 the second time. A tech finally answered and said there were no prescription for me. After I told her the nurse assured me that she faxed and it went through, the tech advised me their fax machine was "still" broken. It was after 6:00pm by this time, so I have to wait another 24 hours before I can begin medication I need now! This is pure negligence!
