“I use Walgreens pharmacy primarily for my prescriptions and while I'm there sometimes but other non prescription products, novelties or candy, so I can only say what I notice when I am there. It's usually not a very crowded place and there is plenty of parking. You just need to be aware of the extremely high curbs if you drive a car that sits lower to the ground. I have ruined my front spoiler guard by hitting it once or twice trying to park as close as I could so that my rear wasn't obstructing thru traffic. There is handicap parking and they do have a drive thru which I suggest using if you have a called in prescription as it seems they are served before walk-ins and you will be waiting for another pharmacist to help you so it may take a bit longer to check out. There is one female pharmacist that I think is bitter about her job or working in general because she doesn't smile much. But for the most part, it's not a bad place to visit.”
“All of the staffs at this CVS are very kind, professional, helpful and caring towards me. I used to have my prescription filled at the CVS in collegeville, pa. The collegeville is like the zoo. They treated me mean and the lady pharmacist/ supervisor inhumane! Kudos to the CVS inside of the Target on Ridge Pike, Limerick, pa.”
“I only come to this CVS Pharmacy for my prescriptions/refills. I have always been treated respectfully and the communication has always been timely and professional. I appreciate the team at Kugler Road!! Keep up the great job!!”
