Walgreens Pharmacy at Debarr and Muldoon in Anchorage Alaska

Hello,

The wait times are so long, the drive thru is never open anymore. I had to go to this location 5 times before there was a pharmacist working so I could pick up my prescription.

Now I am having ankle surgery and when I called to see if they have the prescribed pain medicine in stock. They said I had to come and check in person. I am not allowed to drive my car and should not have to waste a trip to the Walgreens in a taxi just to see if they have the medication in stock. I know this store is short staffed, but they should at least let the customers know if they can get the medication.

Thank you,

Desired outcome: Please have the Drive-Thru open in the Pharmacy and hire more staff.

Walgreens The pharmacy

I'm writing because I have a complaint with you 1355 2ND street henderson ky 42420 location. They are a bunch of people who have no clue as to how to operate a pharmacy they have people working there that are not quailfied to do the job. The lst time I was there they had people who normally work in the store as stock and cashiers and they are messing up peoples medications. My daughter went a local clinic and was given an inhaker and some antibioctics and they constantly said they didnt have it even thought the Docotor called it in by escript and they tried to tell me that an escript took 2 days to arrive and I know for a fact that it doesn't. They lie and treat people with disrespect. You need to fire all of them and get some people in there that actually care about people and who are quailfied to do the job correctly and expeditally. Instead of trying to buy out all the little mom and pop pharmacy to try be the monoply on pharmacys.

Desired outcome: do better and hire peopl who are quailfied to do the job

Walgreens Nice! Crunchy Oats & Honey Granola Bars

Had difficulty chewing and swallowing... when I swallowed what I could I took the piece I couldn't swallow out and it is a piece of wood... sharp and unchewable large sliver of wood. Now my anxiety is going through the roof because I definitely ate some. I saved the other half of the bar along with the packaging and piece I spit out. Not thrilled at all.

I'd prefer to be contacted by phone if possible, regarding this. My number is [protected].

Claimed loss: Potential health hazard/threat. Emotional, mental, and physical distress. Loss of sleep. Terrible anxiety and panic attack resulting from this.

Desired outcome: I'd appreciate a response. I don't know what kind of physical damage this can cause, but I know mentally this is not enjoyable. I'm having difficulty calming myself to sleep and I have work and an interview tomorrow morning!

On Monday November 6th, 2023 I went to my local Walgreens to pick up my husbands prescriptions. I went up to the counter and told the clerk my information and told him I have 2 coupons for these medications on my phone, I handed him my phone and he tried to put in the information into the computer. I could tell he wasn't really sure how to do it. After a...

Walgreens pharmacy staff

I am complaining about the pharmacy at 696 main st. Weymouth, ma. I dealt with corporate a couple of months ago because they did not even have the decency to answer the phone and say hold please. Just picked up phone and hung it back up. Half the time, it seemed you were being disconnected. How rude is that. It takes no more time to be courteous than it does to be rude. They also closed on a Sunday with no advance notice whatsoever. Inexusable. What if the hospital did that? Talked to Moreilla today, or more like it, she talked over me. Interrupted me every time i tried to speak . Said she had patients to get to. well, hey, guess what, I'm a patient and have been for over 40 years, but that is coming to an end. They have obviously chosen not to improve themselves, so if you keep going there, you've been warned.

Desired outcome: apology and upgraded service. Sensitivity training for staff

Walgreens Pharmacy/vaccination employee

Me and my mother in law went into Walgreens pharmacy for our pre scheduled appointments for flu vaccination. We were met with a young woman that was beyond rude and could have cared less about helping us, she was so rude and dismissive that I tried 2times to engage her through compliments saying encouraging things abut Walmart and her job Hoping to help her relax and have a pleasant day. I was treated worse and completely dismissed rudely. she never brought out paperwork and walked off completely not wanting to follow through with her job. After a half hour past our appointment we asked and pharmacist himself came and gave us paperwork. He was polite and kind and thorough unlike the lady we first delt with.

Desired outcome: I would like woman to yearn about customer service as we and many others she’s dealing with are older and many don’t feel good. It takes very little to be polite to a customer

Walgreens Walgreens Pharmacy in Tucson Store #11183

The store in Tucson was supposed to fill a prescription for a Zpack for my daughter. We called and were told that it was being filled and that delivery would be set up for her since she lives on a college campus. They even sent her a message that the delivery was coming the next morning. The meds never came and when I called I was put on hold for over 20 minutes and I was hung up on four separate times. Once I finally spoke to someone they said they could not guarantee that my daughter would get the meds and they didn't know when they could fill it? What is going on with this store? Terrible pharmacy. We will never use Walgreens again.

We had 5:00 appointments today, Oct 10, to get our flu vaccinations. We arrived at 4:45 and waited in line to be taken. We were told to have a seat & wait until we were called (questionnaire filled out online prior to appointment). When it got to 5:30, I asked how much longer we'd have to wait & was told there were still 3 people ahead of us. Why bother to...

Walgreens pharmacy service

I am an 82-year old customer of walgreens and have been calling the pharmacy for three days consistently trying to refill a prescription and each time I've called I have been put on hold with no return answer for hours. During the hold time, someone would pick up and return you to hold without respecting me as a customer needing service, I take in consideration that they are busy but there are customers on the phone needing assistance as well. I called and asked to speak with the pharmacy manager and he did not help me. He hung up the phone and the phone just kept on ringing. The pharmacy staff at this location are very disrespectful and are not concerned about the patient's welfare. It would be so kind of you to check on the pharmacy staff at this location.
