The pharmacy staff is always so helpful and helps advocate for us the patients when something goes screwy with an rx. We’ve been using this pharmacy for 25 years for a reason and we hope to still be using it in 25 more!

I have to say I've been with sav on for years but I will be transferring. Ive never been treated with anything other than respect but when I called this morning regarding a med I hadn't been able to pick up she basically told me to bad so sad it goes back and you need to refill it again. Ok but it was her reaction to me that is concerning. She needs to get a job she likes or better training .

After 18 years shopping at Albertsons in rancho San Diego I have had to call it quits. They don't have their sale products in when they advertise them. They do not give you a rain check that is equivalent to what you would purchase while you're in the store. And at times they wouldn't give me a rain check at all for items they did not have stocked or on sale as advertised. This is a common bait and switch in sales. They get you in they don't have the products nor that they want to give you a rain check and you have to buy other items at higher prices.This store has turned into a joke. The customer service is well below average for 2025. 100% unacceptable for the early 90s late '80s.
