Pharmacist named as jasper;store no 8393
Very bad customer service, might as well close this location. The pharmacist calls himself a DR G bad manners never answers the phone, the whole team is a disaster many team members come and go. It makes me feel they are a bunch of crooks, except the female pharmacist DIN, she is the best. The poor think is sick, the whole family had covid including her little kids. How come she can make a huge difference. and the others cannt.
Desired outcome: write the pharmacist Dr G up , never give him a job any cvs outlet he is a liability .

Read full review of CVS and 1 commentIt has taken two weeks to get my wife's prescription filled
My wife takes adderall, and has been using this pharmacy to fill the prescriptions. They are extremely rude, don't answer the phone when you call, and are largely incompetent in general. Every time we have to refill her Adderall, they say they don't have it in stock and have to order it. That means we have to wait at least a few days to get it, and in the...
Read full review of CVSUnethical managerial practices
I was an employee of CVS located at 7408 Annapolis Rd. Landover Hills MD 20784, working as an overnight stock person. I was recently terminated by the manager as he claimed the cashiers till was short and if he couldn’t determine what happened to the finds I would be terminated. I begged him to review the camera as I didn’t steal anything nor did I make any mistakes with the cashiers till. He refused to do so and went on to say, this is the third time this has happened and this was the last time. The manager never stated to me the cashiers till was ever short. We've always ended the till with the cashiers till being accurate, this is the first time i'm hearing the cashiers till being short. I later found that other staff members were using the same cashiers till I was using, which should never happen. That's why the manager could not determine where the shortage stemmed from. I was then blamed for the shortage and subsequently terminated. I feel that I was unjustly terminated and I am asking that someone look into this matter. This manger has defamed my name and my character. Ima not a thief and I did not make any mistakes leading to the shortage. Lastly, I would not want this to happen to another hard working, honest empolyee.
Desired outcome: I'd like to have my job reinstated, maybe at another store in my area. I do not trust this specific manger at this point.
Lack of customer concern
My eye doctor put in a prescription to my local CVS on January 31. They said that the eye drops were not covered under my insurance and that they faxed this info to my doctor. I waited two days before I called CVS and they said they had not heard from the doctor. I called my doctor and they said they would send another script. I waited two more days and then called CVS. They said the eye drops were on back order and that they sent a fax to the doctor.
Why do they fax instead of CALLING the doc? I have two week follow up with the doc this Thursday and I still have not received the medication he prescribed on Jan 31.
Desired outcome: I wish the pharmacist cared enough about their customer to make a PHONE CALL! I don't believe this would have happened if the former Pharmacist, Dawn was still there! Please respond!

CVS Pharmacy is currently blocking Americans from viewing and purchasing from their website while outside of the US. Many Americans travel abroad on a regular basis for vacation, work or to live in other countries. Many of them need to be able to make purchases at CVS and ship those purchases to their US addresses. I personally know people who would order products such as medication, personal care items and other things and have them shipped to their elderly parents back in the US while traveling abroad.
I reached out to CVS for comment on this but their customer service was very unhelpful and now has stop responding altogether.
Desired outcome: I would like it if CVS would allow Americans to shop on their website even if they are traveling outside of the US.
Pharmacy tech treatment of me
Yesterday (2/3/22) at approximately 3:00 pm I stopped at your store (#1593) located on Greenridge St., Scranton, PA. I opted to go into the store as I wanted to purchase 2 items in addition to prescriptions for my wife. The wait in line to the pickup window was short but it still took 15 minutes to make my way to the window. The wait was not an issue to me as everyone behind the counter was obviously busy and doing their best to manage a hectic time. The gentleman directly in front of me further slowed things because he decided to split his purchase after it had been totaled as one (everything had to be deleted and re-entered then re-rung as 2 purchases). Things happen and I was unfazed by the additional delay. To this point all was well, I had my two items (mouthwash and dog training pads) and requested my wife's prescriptions-again no problem or aggravation to this point. The pharmacy clerk retrieved the rx order and rang it up, I asked her not to forget the two items I had placed on the counter to which she responded, "You can take those to the front of the store if you want them!". I said, "Pardon me?", to which she replied if you want to purchase them you need to go to the front of the store, I am too busy.
I have been a customer of CVS for over 30 years and have never has such a request ever made of me. The aforementioned man in front of me purchased several items, and both of the waiting customers behind me also had a few items (a woman behind me witnessed the exchange dumped her other items on a shelf and left when she heard this exchange).
If this is a new policy, there should be a sign stating this.
I did go to the front of the store, waited a few more minutes and finally made my purchase at the self-checkout lane (REG#17, TRN#1688 CSHR0000097).
I do understand delays during unusually busy times, they are an unavoidable event, I do not, however, understand such disrespectful, rude and uncaring treatment.
This local CVS has previously managed to balance being a part of a large organization with small town treatment of their customers. This transaction went beyond cold and uncaring and ventured into rude contemptful behavior.
I have been treated with dignity and respect by your staff (Mark and some new faces included). I sincerely hope this is an isolated incident by an overwhelmed undertrained member of your team.
Sincerely:
David Rodgers

Prescription Not Filled Correctly
Date: 2/1/22
Location: Rockaway, NJ
Description: I collected my Vascepa 90 day prescription from pharmacy (360 capsules). The prescription actually filled was only 345 capsules (15 capsules short).
i went back to the pharmacy twice and complained but was turned back saying the prescription was filled correctly.
I counted the capsules 4 times. My wife also counted it to double check and came up with the same total 345 capsules.
Desired outcome: Rectify the complaint.
Customer service
As I approached the counter the pharmacist said just a minute, I said okay. Another customer less than a minute later stepped up and she waited on him immediately and never attempted to fill my prescription. Five minutes later another person stepped up to take my prescription using my Good Rx coupon and would not honor it! My complaint is that the original...

First problem. I got a text stating they were working on my prescription which was one of my heart meds. I went in 3 days later to pick it up and was told there running about a week behind. I told them I could not wait any longer because I would be out. I was able to make another trip the next day and get it.
Second problem. Went on line to see when they would be filling another one of my heart meds. It showed it had already been filled about a week ago. After spending 30+ mins on the phone on hold I was able to talk to someone about it and the said they did not know why it was showing it already filled. Again I told them I would be out of my med by the next day. So they put a rush on it and I was able to make another trip the next day to get it. While there I asked about my sons prescription for his needles that he needs for his diabetes. She said they were still working on that but would notify me when it was ready to pick up and it should be ready in an hour. I again asked if they would notify me before i make a trip. She said you. Well they never notified me so I had to spend 30+ mins. on the phone waiting for someone to pickup to see why it was not ready. We I spoke with someone they looked it up and said I don't know why you were not notified. So he was needing his needles so I ran over to get then and I was on foot not in a vehicle. I got to the door at 4:04 and it was locked because they have changed hours and are closing earlier than before. The lady working seen me standing at the door looking in and came to the door and asked what I needed. I explained I was told his needles were ready to pick up and I needed them really bad. She said we close at 4 you need to go through the drive up window. I said I walked and it would only take me a few minutes and my son needed the needles really bad. She could care less. If they would have called me like they promised I would not be having a problem. I asked the lady what her name was and she told me but I won't mention it unless I'm asked.
Desired outcome: I want better costumer service. I know people make mistakes sometimes because nobody is perfect. It does not cost anything to be kind to people. I don't want to spend 30+ mins on the phone waiting for someone to pick up.
Delay processing rx to charge copays
I called to order my Rx and system said it was too early (@ 12/23 or 12/24). Then I called on 12/27/21 & spoke to CSR who assured me my order would get processed and sent out as all was available.
I then receive my order @ 1/7/21 (mail has been delayed in our area so it wasn't unexpected). However, I find that they held my processing until 1/1/2022 and I had met my deductible in 2021. The prescriptions would have been no charge if processed on 12/31/21 but held them until 1/1/22 so I would have to pay the copays.
I am most disappointed at this since it takes $5000 deductible each year and I've finally met it only to be delayed to 1/1/22.
I would like to have these charges reconsidered as I feel copays shouldn't have had to been charged or at least let us order a few days earlier due to holiday delays and such to get our medications; rather than charge copays on 1/1/2022. So much for the holiday spirit and I've been with Caremark for over 10 years!
Could call in order on 12/25/21 of course, but they can bill me on 1/1/22.
Desired outcome: Reprocess and give me credit for copays charged 1/1/2022 or later.
Pharmacy employee
I've been going to CVS Pharmacy 1150 Saratoga St East Boston MA. for 15 years for my prescriptions. For the last few months I've been paying $385 per month for my daughter's Vyvanse medication. To save some money someone told me I could get a coupon from the manufacturer which I did. I went to the drop off area inside CVS because I knew they had to put the coupon in for a discount. The employee had an attitude from the beginning. I had explained to her that before I used the coupon I wanted to see how much I would save to decide if I had enough money to pay. She said go to pick up and wait there. She made me wait 10 minutes and noone else was in the store and 7 employees back there. She reluctantly came over and asked them name and came back with 3 prescriptions. I told her I only wanted to check about the Vyvanse so she said "What do you want me to do with the other ones". Then she sent me back to drop off and told me to write down on a piece of paper all the details of the coupon because she didnt want to look at the coupon in my iwallet. I did and then she said let me see your phone and then got someone to help her. After she told me to go back to pick up and wait there. 20 minutes later after she helped the drive thru she saw me waiting and said go home and come back when the discount is in. I am so upset. I called and spoke to a manager there. I could not understand his name on the phone it sounded like Johann. I told him my story and he said "sorry about that" and I will have a talk with her. I asked him how do you know who I'm talking about and he said he doesn't. I told him I was never going to that store again and he didn't say anything.
Desired outcome: Have someone call me.
Customer service
I called the pharmacy around 9:55 this morning in request of a prescription refill. Unfortunately I did not get the reps name. Unclear of the pharmacist question when she asked me: what is the name? I asked, I’m sorry, my name or the name of the prescription. The pharmacist yelled back: YOUR NAME! My response to her was, MY NAME IS MANUEL! and I added...
Read full review of CVSNot given an appointment for covid-19 booster
My mother, who is 77 years old, went to CVS (540 Amsterdam Ave.) to get an appointment for the COVID-19 booster. She was told that appointments were not given at the store, so she was provided with a tel.# to call and set up an appointment.
My mother called the number on 1/31/22 at around 10:30 am and was placed with a Spanish speaking rep as she cannot explain herself well in English. After spending almost an hour on the phone answering questions, she was told that she would be getting the booster for COVID-19 as well as the Flu shot. My mother expressed that she did not call for a flu shot and that she only wanted the booster for the COVID-19 vaccine. The rep told her that she was not giving her an appointment unless she agreed to get a flu shot or provide a certificate from her doctor that she got the flu shot somewhere else and that she was over her time.
My question is this: why is CVS forcing customers to get a flu shot and denying the booster for COVID-19 on that basis? As far as I'm aware this is not mandatory. People have the ability to choose what they want, and CVS does not have the authority to mandate a flu shot in order to get a COVID-19 booster.

Covid shot / pharmacy
I made a 2:15 appointment for a COVID booster shot at the Livingston, CA location. I arrived on time and checked in online as asked. At the counter I was told, rudely, that the pharmacist had just walked out for her lunch break and I would need to wait 30 minutes for her to return. I informed the counter server that I had a 2:15 appointment and she, very...
