My son went into the Walgreens to purchase items by UBER and needed to Uber back home while he was standing outside for his Uber an employee named Dewey came outside and ask him why was he standing outside as if he was littering he was literally waiting for his Uber to come. He told him he was waiting for us Uber and he told him that he can't stand outside because he gets off the impression that others can stand outside. My son who is a 23 year old African-American very well dressed and respectful gentleman politely told him he had every right to be outside because he was waiting for his ride to pick up and he wasn't loitering. He wasn't homeless, and there was no reason for him to come outside and harass him. I proceeded to call the manager and tell him of the experience my son had the manager name Lance basically told me no my son was in the wrong and he cannot hang out. He said that he will talk to Dewey however people cannot stand outside of the store, no matter what the reason is, so I'm writing this yelp to let you know I don't know if it was racially motivated or if they're just rude and stupid, but I don't like the experience my son had and I wanted to share it.

I don't need my prescriptions filled with a side of the pharmacist's moral judgment. I've been a Walgreens customer for 20+ years, but the corporate decisions over dispensing certain medications, and this location's pharmacist casting her moral judgment on decisions between my physician and myself is enough. I'm done, taking my business elsewhere.

Pharmacy experience was confusing and frustrating . I just moved to lakeside and also switched health insurances and told the pharmacist I'm waiting for my new doctor to see me in person (2weeks) so he can then send a prescription request to the pharmacy for my medication that Ive been on for years (high blood pressure meds and antidepressants). Well i called this very same Walgreens and the girl on the phone told me go ahead come on in and we will get you these medications a 3 day emergency refill . Just be sure to bring your bottles . Ok perfect . Well I went in to get an emergency 3 day supply the next day and the female pharmacist doctor , (I think she was maybe Asian) that was there today March19th at 3:30pm, told me she can only give me a 2 day supply and only on the blood pressure meds. I asked why and she said because you haven't been refilling your prescriptions with Walgreens.I explained like a little over a year ago I moved to jamul and there was no Walgreens near by, but before that I was with Walgreens refilling prescriptions for yearsss, and that now I moved to lakeside and that I'll be refilling with them now and that It be convenient and make more sense if she cut me a break and gave me the three on both specially since I'm running late for work . And she said no that I need to drive to the old pharmacy I got the prescriptions at (I was holding my prescription bottles from cvs in jamul) and that I was to ask them for a 3 day supply if I wanted both meds or wait until my original doctor calls back. . I explained again that I'm not seeing the same doctor that i have to wait until I see a new one but that it be more convenient if i get it from here since I'm here already, I stopped myself and Instead of arguing with her I then said fine just give me the two pills then . she gave me the 2 pills & proceeded to tell me that she experiences similar issues and is on the same high blood pressure medication as me and understands. so I then suggested that since she knows what it's to have high blood pressure why not cut me a break? I get I can go to another pharmacy but I'm already here and I'm running late for work. She just kept saying go to urgent care . I just walked away cuz I'm not trynna argue or upset myself or anyone else . I guess what im having a hard time accepting is that it was something so so simple that she could have really helped me with but instead she decided to make it complicated for me for no real reason. I've never had a problem having a 3 day supply refill, that and i called and checked with them over the phone if it be a problem so I could avoid this and they said "there's no problem, come on in we will refill those for you, just bring your bottles" I was with Walgreens for 10+ years before this past year. does that count for nothing ? It doesn't take much to be nice . This is just Another reason why I stopped coming to Walgreens .

This Walgreens is ghetto. Only stopped in for an emergency passing thru lakeside. Don't recommend coming here. Completely run down.

There is a young man in the Pharmacy named Josh who goes above and beyond his job title. With all of the craziness of covid he still stops and makes you a priority. He is helpful and kind and always willing to go the extra mile

Kevin and the pharmacist with brown/black hair are the best! Lots of customers come in this store and they are all trying to do their best. Please try to be patient and they will take care of you as quickly as possible. I've also experienced waits but nothing crazy as they are just trying to verify info and make sure they don't give you the wrong medicine.

The pharmacy drive through is so absolutely painfully slow. We sat there today for 20 minutes in line and it didn't move one car. It's consistently super slow. They've gotta figure out a more efficient way. I'll never go here again.

I called five times. All five times I get hung up on. The second call of the five someone said hello, and gave their intro then immediately hung up, so I know someone is there.

Love this location!!! Every time I do curbside pick up, Jazmin has it ready within 10 minutes of me ordering it... No other location has it ready that quickly. Everyone is super nice here and gives amazing service.

Came for my first dose of the covid shot and everyone was so helpful and kind! Kevan at the pharmacy was very vibrant and went above and beyond to help, and Mina made my vaccine as painless and easy as possible! She was extremely personable and it was the best experience for a shot (lol)

Very slow in the COVID vaccine process. Gave all details on the phone and had to redo everything when checking in. Wasn't told to bring insurance info. When the checkin was finally done it took 30 extra minutes before they started the vaccines. I had my vaccine at Children's but made all 4 of my kids appointments here.

It shocks me that the employees are so rude in this store. I asked for night lights & the heavy set clerk blatantly lied. Instead informed me she closes in 10 minutes. Come to find out she'd already asked my husband if he was buying anything and if not he needed to leave the store ( because she was closing in 10 minutes). Pretty insulting to say the least!! I had no idea cooperate would allow this. I refuse to ever spend my money in this store anymore. I'll gladly give it to CVS in the future.
