- JJJamesJul 2, 20222.0Very disappointed in the timeliness, patient care, and professionalism at this pharmacy. I scheduled a COVID booster appointment for this location. My wife and I arrived early for the appointment and was checked in by the friendly pharmacy tech, Abraham and were directed to their vaccine administration area. We waited there for ~30 min (despite there being no other visible customers) before stepping out to ask Abraham when they anticipated the vaccine would be ready. The pharmacist, Ben, immediately cut in before Abraham could respond and impatiently said "It will be ready when it's ready; if you don't want to wait, you can reschedule" and walked away before I could respond. It was disappointing that this location did not honor the appointment time. However, what bothered us most was that Ben's response was curt, rude, and entirely unprofessional in a patient care setting. We did not feel safe receiving a medication from him thereafter and rescheduled at a different pharmacy.
- ___Dec 2, 20211.0I called five times during listed business hours and no one picked up. They don’t accept voicemails so there’s nothing to do except keep trying until someone answers. Frustrating situation.
