Today, around 4:00 PM on 03/21/2024, I encountered a frustrating situation at a pharmacy. I was there to pick up a prescription and was informed I'd need to wait 20 minutes for it to be filled, which seemed reasonable at the time. So, I decided to wait in my car. After waiting for 30 minutes without receiving a notification, I went back, only to find a queue of five people. Once it was finally my turn, a different pharmacist informed me that the medication I was prescribed is controlled and that I would have to return in three days to pick it up.I can't help but feel this situation could have been handled much more efficiently. If I had been informed of the three-day wait initially, I could have used my time more productively, especially since I had classes to attend. This experience felt not only like a waste of time for both parties but also disrespectful. It's perplexing why, with my contact information readily available, a simple phone call couldn't have been made to inform me of the delay. Consequently, after I retrieve my prescription in three days, I plan to switch to a pharmacy that values customer time more highly. I would advise others to consider doing the same, based on my experience.

Both the Walgreens company and this particular store on Main Street in Fairfax Virginia. Even though I had 3 different vaccines at the store before and my insurance never changed, the company’s website lets me book the appointment that they don’t have the vaccine in stock and then claimed they don’t accept my insurance. Why don’t they check their stock and the insurance eligibility before letting me book the appointment and to add insult to injury, the receptionist had a snarky attitude and the store manager for the pharmacy just stood there and said nothing. Not even a word of apology.

Fatima is a gem in the world of beauty consultants! Her knowledge and passion shine through in every product recommendation and skincare tip she offers. Not only did she help me find the perfect products for my skin, but her genuine care and attention to detail made the experience truly delightful. I trust Fatima wholeheartedly and would recommend her to anyone looking to elevate their beauty routine with confidence and expertise!

It took 13 minutes to buy one pack of gum. That's right; 13 minutes. I was second in line the entire time. The cashier did not say one word to me. There was no: I'm sorry for your wait, no remorse, no attempt to get someone else to help me, nothing. Yet she spent an inordinate amount of time assisting someone who couldn't figure out how to use one of his cards. I guess she just didn't like me, even though I stood there and didn't say anything. Then when she rang me up, my one pack of gum cost $2.10! I was shocked. I paid, and I was not even offered a bag. This woman said less than five words to me the entire transaction. Wow.

Shannon and Zafor:I want to compliment Shannon for their patient help as I stumbled through making my first ever photo album which was to be a gift for my adult children for Christmas! I had absolutely no idea how to even start, much less what to do. Shannon was so helpful and encouraging and spent so much time with me while managing to take care of other customers at the same time. I never felt judged or hurried, only supported and encouraged by them.Zafor (I hope I have spelled his name correctly) was also extremely patient and helpful a few days later as I tried to make a different book. I was in there so long, it was approaching closing time, but he worked with me and went above and beyond in helping me get the correct pictures uploaded from different sources.Though it is about 1 1/2 months now after their help, I felt it was extremely important to let it be known how personable and helpful they both were and that they delivered outstanding customer service.

This is my second Walgreens to use in Fairfax and they are equally bad. By far the worst customer service I have ever experienced. The average hold time on phone calls is over 30 minutes and that’s after getting disconnected or hung up on several times. Going in is usually a nightmare. You better plan for at least a 30 minute wait and have had several that were over 2 hours. They were supposed to be about 20 min to fill. Ive even been lied to about why some weren’t done. I don’t blame the employees I feel they are doing the best they can. I blame the company for not making sure we the customer have enough help at the locations that need it. There closer stores to me I’ve just always loved Walgreens. I’m going somewhere closer and hopefully better.

She introduced me some products that helped with my pigments .She keeps up with the latest products in the market .I love her consultation. I m very comfortable and hassle free and making it a very warm professional experience...

Understaffed. Slow. Poor adherence to good customer focused processes. Disappointing.

Severely understaffed, not enough help for the workers. Walgreens needs to do better as a company and help their overworked staff.
