I'm typing this during my 30th minute in line, and counting. The pharmacy is understaffed and unable to keep up with demand.
The staff is professional, I'm sure this is management/ownership's refusal to adequately staff. Support your fellow workers.

Bummerrrrr. Waited twice in the same day in a ~40 min line. I’ve never experienced this kind of delay. I used to goto rite aid down the road. The wait was never more than 5 or so minutes. Please get more help. They should have prepared better to absorb the rite aid customers. I’m finding a new pharmacy 🫠

Worst pharmacy I’ve experienced in my 79 years. Understaffed, NEVER answered the phone in my many attempts. The staff seem fine, but unbelievably bad service.
