Looking past the corporate changes and pharmacy hours, I look to the heart of the store. The 24 hour store/pharmacy was convenient. However I can understand why the changes were made. Especially to the pharmacy. It became a safety thing, especially with the rise in the abuse of prescription pain medication. Unfortunately it's the case of a law abiding citizen getting "punished" for those who break the law. However, I will give the store a 5 star rating everyday because of the employees that work there. To be fully honest in my review there's one pharmacist I'm not a huge fan of but he knows his stuff and he does his job well. He just comes across at times as not being a people person. It could be because hes introverted, or just doesn't have social skills. Or maybe I just caught him on a bad day. It is not my place to judge. I do not know him. It's not enough to make me complain about him or the store. The other employees, from management to the cashiers are wonderful. I go to Walgreens often and even though I pay more money when I go there for some things I could get cheaper at let's say Walmart, I like the atmosphere better. They take the time to get to know you. If you're OK with having conversations with them. If your one that really doesn't wanna talk, they do their job, are polite and then you go about your day, and they go about theirs. However, if you are one that doesn't mind small conversations they enjoy that to. You feel like a guest, not a customer. No, to be honest, more like a friend than a customer. They know my kids and they ask about them. If I send photo books in to be printed or pictures to be printed when I come in and they see me they have them out and ready for me. It's a place that feels like home. I cannot speak for all Walgreens stores. However, this one is awesome, because of the people.
