Understaffed, always long lines, they say they're going to have a prescription ready and you get there and it's not ready. Third time this week to try to get one prescription filled. They need to hire more staff.

My chief complaint is the wait, there’s never 2 at pickup making the line extra long. Expect to be at least 20 minutes to pickup, if your script is ready.
My other complaint is closing 1:00-2:00 for lunch. With the number of prescriptions that flow through, can’t you staff more than one pharmacist and one at pickup making, like today on a busy Friday!

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