The pharmacist, Ryan was absolutely great. We we visiting in Charleston for our 32 wedding anniversary and my husband needed his asthma inhaler. As of lately that's been a hard script to fill anywhere. Well let's just say that Ryan never gave up with trying to make it happen. We need more pharmacist to be as diligent, and accommodating as Ryan. It was absolutely refreshing. Thanks, Ryan.

Took two days to get an essential prescription to get called in. Pharmacy closes at 7pm, store closes at 9pm. We arrive at 602pm. Do you think we were able to collect said prescription? No. Because we show up, along with about a dozen other people looking to get in, only to be told that the place closed at 6pm due to "staffing issues." Literally two people came to the door to tell us they had staffing issues when they literally were the staff!!! "I don't normally work at this location," the portly man told us. We are only passing through and we're supposed to leave at 6am. Now we have to wait until after 9 to get this script before we can safely leave town. Oh and I say after 9 because there is zero chance with the two staff it took to tell us they had no staff that it was actually filled when it was called in at 545pm. Garbage.

My first experience with this Walgreens was in the summer 0f 2020, Our previous drugstore in Charleston (a Walgreens) had closed. We were first sent to a King Street location, but the cashier there told me they were really for tourists, not locals and we would be better off at the Calhoun Street location. So not being able to get items we need I took the Cashiers advice and switched to the 261 Calhoun Street location. My first experience there was to pick up a prescription for my mother-in-law. I was a Friday evening. When I got to the counter and told the women we were new customers, she acted very cold and then asked what I needed, I told her I needed to pick up insulin for my mother-in-law. She said, It was available yesterday, but no one picked up so it was all sent back. I replied "but she needs this to stay healthy". She replied, "just sit there and wait, I'll refill it". So I that's what I did, I sat and waited until about 20 minutes later whenI saw the lights behind the pharmacy counter turn off. Finally another woman came out from behind the counter. She looked at me and said "sir, the pharmacy is closed". I replied. "But I was waiting on the other woman to to get an insulin prescription filled". She said, "that woman went out the back door ten minutes ago". Luckily my mother-in-law had enough left to get through until Monday. I'm not sure what's going on in this store. Since that experience, I've had other problems getting prescriptions filled. It has taken up to six visits to the store to get a prescription filled.
