- CBCoko BrownJul 20, 20255.0Ive had nothing but great service and experiences with this pharmacy .
- CSC SchwartzNov 22, 20232.0The pharmacist was just fine - pleasant and professional. But the manager provided very poor customer service and was very haughty. I believe she also made an error about our insurance coverage and charged me $50 for a vaccine that should have been free. I took my 98 year old dad (blind and mobility impaired) in for a vaccine. We were informed that there would be a $50 copay. I explained that my mom - with identical insurance- had the same vaccine 2 weeks ago at a different Safeway pharmacy and there was no copay. The manager was unhelpful, unfriendly and uncaring. She refused to call the insurance to straighten out the confusion so I did but after 45 minutes on hold I gave up and said we’d just pay the $50. The manager then told me I’d have to get in the (lengthy and slow moving) prescription line to pay even though we had already been there for over 45 minutes and my dad was extremely fatigued. I subsequently spoke with another friend who just got the same vaccine at CVS with Medicare (same as my parents) for no copay. Needless to say we will not return to this pharmacy. I’d rate it just one star but added a star for the nice pharmacist.
- MMMark McCulloughFeb 12, 20223.0Compared to CVS, I like this pharmacy because it’s never very busy. With that said, the staff doesn’t mind making you wait. They know you are there waiting and all of them are just doing other stuff most of the time. I’ve been going there for several years and I mostly have a decent overall experience. Other thing that I probably dislike the most about this pharmacy is that the place closes for an hour during lunch. Really? That’s poor management and service. There’s ways to keep the place running at lunch
- KTKeith TrinityFeb 25, 20211.0Do NOT go here for pain medication! They will NOT work with you and your Doctor. They forced me to suffer while ordering meds they knew I had refills for. They also accused me, and defamed me, by saying I attempted to get meds early when it was their system foulup. Then they totally refused to ever prescribe to me again when my Dr. put in a new prescription!

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.
