“I switched from this pharmacy for a bit. I quickly learned my lesson and returned. I’ve also had good interactions here. The staff is always friendly and happy to help.”
“This is how medical care should work in this country. I walked in (without an appointment) asked for a shingles vaccine, and got it within minutes. I only had to fill out one piece of paper, and didn't even have to pay for it.I don't want to know the details of what they had to do with my insurance. It's just handled!Brilliant!Highly recommend!”
“Glad to have something open 24 hours near me. Just wish police would sometimes park there to do their paper work to ward off u desires n shoplifters. Would hate for them to start closing because of money lose. Can’t get prescriptions like you used to but at least u can get otc Medici e if needed.”
“I'm dubious about all the 'rude staff' reviews for this location. I've been going to this CVS for 10+ years. These recent reviews from others do NOT reflect my experience. I did have some of these complaints a year or so ago - before they obviously made some staffing and process changes. I think service has improved since then. Yes, the monitor logins seem more impersonal, but staff have frequently been helpful and friendly with me. Helped me figure out things when I had questions. And I observe that the frequent long lines at the walk in pharmacy are a thing of the past. Maybe because of the changes they've implemented? I think health care is confusing for all of us. Some have better coverage than others. Insurance companies are difficult to work with. I think the pharmacy often gets the blame when insurance policies become unreasonable. But I watch as the staff here frequently call in to the insurance providers to act on customers' behalf. I just don't personally experience all the negatives I'm reading. Also possible some of the reviewers are writing about the wrong location. CVS is everywhere. To be clear - this review is for 72nd and N. Oak. P.S. Forgot to mention. My wife still uses a different pharmacy with a different company. Won't say who, but a big W. Her experience is far worse than even the most scathing of reviews I've read for CVS. Stubbornly, she just refuses to move all her scripts.”
