- JMJoseph MorrisOct 18, 20251.0Free flu shots are not free if your Kaiser, they are $40. Why would you have signs all over saying "free flu shots" if you don't accept most common insurance in the Bay area. False advertising. Piled two kids into the car to come here for nothing.

- LFLisa FApr 16, 20251.0After getting my prescription from Safeway for many years, they will not fill it. Sandy, whom I talked to on the phone at pharmacy, wants to send my prescription to my insurance, which will not cover it. It isn't even a problem with the medication, it's just red tape that will delay everything and make everything complicated for no reason whatsoever. Sandy was not compassionate with me. I am in chronic pain and I have been seeing doctors for my injuries for over 20 years. I have no issues with any of the medical people I see and I am getting good care. I guess Safeway does not care about seniors who are disabled and in chronic pain. Sandy does not understand what it's like to be in chronic pain, but I hope someday she will know and think back on this situation. As someone who worked in the medical field for over 25 years, she has no business working with patients. Life is really hard for us disabled seniors right now with all that’s going on with Social Security and our 401(k) is being completely drained. That’s all I needed today was just one more thing to make my life miserable. Thank you, Safeway.

Frequently Asked Questions About Safeway Pharmacy
Does Safeway Pharmacy offer vaccinations, and which ones are available?
Yes! Safeway Pharmacy provides a wide range of vaccinations for children, teens, and adults. Popular vaccines available include pneumonia, flu (influenza), COVID-19, shingles (Shingrix), and Tdap.

Who should get the shingles shot?
Safeway Pharmacy offers the Shingrix shingles vaccine for adults aged 50 and older, as well as for adults 19 and older with weakened immune systems. The CDC recommends two doses, spaced 2 to 6 months apart, to protect against shingles and its complications.

Why is reviewing my Medicare plan every year important?
Reviewing your Medicare plan every year is important because Medicare Advantage (Part C) and Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (Part D) can change annually.

By reviewing your plan during the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period, you can ensure it still meets your healthcare needs and budget—and switch plans if necessary.
