This month they've lost my asthma medication. According to their website, it was filled on March 21. Now, March 29, there is still no sign of my medication. I've been to the pharmacy multiple times asking for it, and have spent hours on the phone with every CVS phone number I can find or get transferred to trying to find it. All anyone can tell me is that it's in process or has been shipped. Where it was shipped from, which date it was shipped, when it's expected to arrive, none of these can be answered. They keep bringing up CVS central fill. But no one has a phone number or address for central fill. I've been told it's my job to find it, the pharmacy's job, even that it's my job to search for the medication at other pharmacies. What I haven't been told is how to get the prescription.It's been nearly a week without my main asthma medication.

I am constantly surprised at how incompetent CVS pharmacy is. I have never experienced so many issues with a pharmacy as I have with CVS. The worst part is that I've never dealt with the same employee twice. Their turnover rate must be astronomical. Every time I call in, the employee helping me has only worked there a couple months. When I go in to pick up a prescription, all the employees look exhausted, overworked, and sad. I only used CVS for one year because I was forced to due to my insurance. I switched insurances as soon as I could and transferred my prescriptions ASAP. I wish my experience was unusual but all my coworkers say that CVS causes them more grief than it's worth. CVS obviously cares more about their bottom line than the people who work for them and the customers they supposedly "serve".

I was not shocked to see the a 1.8 Google review score. This place treats their customers so mean. The only reason I’ve tolerated the blatant disrespect is because of the app. But it’s not worth it any longer. Get some nicer employees.

This pharmacy is a disaster. Had to switch to them for insurance reasons. Had ups and downs from the beginning but tried really hard to give them the benefit of the doubt. I get it I have worked in customer service for years. I get that you are very busy and understaffed. But I have almost always been greeted like I’m an inconvenience. Almost every time I went inside I have overheard an argument between a customer and employee where an employee was yelling. You picked this occupation you should learn how to handle upset customers. And after today I understand why people are always upset with you. Customer service is very very rude, it’s a hassle to get prescriptions refilled, very incompetent, definitely some technical issues, terrible attitudes. Will most likely switch pharmacies.

The last few times I've gone, the store manager (who is usually the only employee working at the time) is standing right outside the front door vaping. And then he follows you inside, but then disappears in the aisle so you have to try and ring the customer service bell. It takes about 5 minutes of constant ringing for it to make an announcement.A few months ago I picked up a RX at the pharmacy, and the tech yelled up to the counter from the back "Is it the mood stabilizer and the heart medication?" while there were multiple people in line behind me.2 stars because it's a convenient place to drop off Amazon returns.

When this store first opened, I was very impressed and excited that I had a CVS pharmacy close to home. My employer prefers this pharmacy chain.I have recently made the decision to choose another pharmacy as I am continually frustrated with the service I receive from the employees of this store. I often receive notifications which are incorrect and tell me my Rx are ready for pickup only to find out they are not ready when I go to the store. Along with not receiving notifications when they ARE ready and having to go back to the store to check on them because the phone is NEVER answered.I have committed to NEVER go back to this store.

Waited in the drive through pharmacy line for twenty five minutes and when I pulled up it was eight, so they shut the window. I understand they close at that time, but maybe finish for the folks who had to wait and put up a barrier so you don't have new cars pulling up.

I don’t know if this store is severely understaffed but after having to come here due to insurance, about a year now, I have yet to have a positive experience. The phone is NEVER answered and I have been told to go to another CVS because they didn’t want to order my rx or even bother looking to see if they had it.

If I could give 0 stars to this Pharmacy I would! I called in for a prescription to be filled around 4pm when they closed at 5pm that day, I wasn’t sure if that was a quick enough turn around time so I asked if it would be done before closing and she yelled “I said I’m working on it right now!!!!!” When I arrived to pick up I went inside to put in a complaint on that employee. I was then told I was the rude one and asked too many times if it would be done before closing.. and that she could deny me service if she wanted to.. I definitely will be putting in a complaint with the company on her and the male leading pharmacist that told me I can go somewhere else next time without hearing my side

Store was dirty, no employee acknowledged me when I arrived and the customer service at the pharmacy was poor. My and a few other customers stood at the counter for several minutes before anyone even acknowledge us but then were still slow to provide help.Store does not have self checkout so you have to ring a bell and wait for assistance to check out.

When me moved to the area 7 years ago it was fantastic and I knew every pharmacist by name. Then they let everyone go and restaffed the entire pharmacy. Since then they can't keep employees and have a new staff every time I go in there. They will send me a notifications telling me my scipts are ready. When I get there that is not the case. They are always backed up and understaffed. I asked one of the pharmacists why things have gotten so bad and he told me the best way to get my scripts filled is to go somewhere else, which I did :(

I try not to be a negative person, but after having dozens of issues with this Pharmacy I felt like it was really worth taking the time to say something. Apathetic staff, even rude at times. Usually takes a minimum of 30 minutes to get what I need, even when it’s already filled and ready for pickup. I understand it can be a stressful job, but in contrast, I’ve never had an issue at the Smiths pharmacy. They are polite, on time, and pleasant. To be fair, I’ve had a couple good experiences at this pharmacy, but the overwhelming majority of them have been poor. It’s been this way for a while now, but I’m hopeful they can make some changes. In the meantime I’d suggest anyone in Syracuse get their meds from Smiths!

A few years ago, I thought this was the best pharmacy there was. Now it’s gone terrible; understaffed, borderline rude and incompetent folks, takes 40+ mins sometimes.They’ve been out of my drug for weeks and didn’t bother to tell me until I come in and ask; they then lack complete empathy about the situation.They don’t care and so I’ve packed up and moved on like many others.
