As the only 24 hour Walgreens in the county we have worked with this pharmacy for 13 years.
As a mother with loved ones with disabilities we survive on the $1,000's of dollars of prescriptions we get monthly. It's imperative to know your medications and work closely with your providers to manage them. There are a couple pharmacists (Chuck and Patty) that have been phenomenal to my family for over a decade. With most pharmacies being huge chains it's hard to find that kind of personable relationship with your pharmacist.
Walgreens has been hit with huge federal fines and puts a lot of pressure on their pharmacy staff. The choice to care about each customer shows the quality and kindness of the staff. I'm so thankful to have them as part of our health care team. Day or night they are there to explain side effects etc. There have been times I've been so busy with family I suddenly need a script filled late at night or after a hospital visit. They always rush to minimize our wait and stress.
We had one mishap and the pharmacist was so embarrassed and honorable, sincerely apologizing. Honestly, the only frustrations we've had are that one of the techs acts very unenthused to help us, I honestly don't think she's aware of how she carries herself. No harm no foul. And for some reason there will be times a doctor calls in a script and rather than fill it the script disappears into some void where you have to call and request it be filled. I'm not sure if others notice, but at times instead of getting the actual store Walgreens will forward your calls to a national call line, but they are always helpful and kind.
As far as the store itself, the lines can pile up fast, but the staff tries and is always hard at work. Even if the costs are a bit higher we do prefer to shop here for our beauty products. Their holiday products are often unique and fun for the kids.
There is a CVS across the corner, but their lot is always empty. We've used them for scripts but I always come back to Walgreens because it's worth it to me to know my pharmacist knows our script list and will protect us from potential combination issues.
