- MPMarci ParrOct 12, 20255.0Today we did our annual visit to our Safeway for Flu and Covid vaccines. We did have a little bit of a wait, but the service was wonderful and the pharmacist who did our shots was professional and superb at giving the injections. Apologies if not saying her name correctly, possibly Selena / Sarina? Thank you for the wonderful care today!
- JDJessica DayOct 3, 20254.0I really love this Safeway pharmacy. They treat their customers with care. They smile and ask about your day. There is almost never a line. The only time I have experienced a line is when I showed up right after the lunch break - which is to be expected. What I like the best is that the Safeway app has a place for your pharmacy health and you can refill your prescriptions or have refill requests sent to your doctor from the app.
- KAKleybi K. Urrutia AndreakisSep 15, 20255.0This has been my pharmacy for about 5 or 6 years now. Before that, getting my medications was a complete disaster, but since I've been at this pharmacy, everything has changed. It's so easy to get my medications here, and the customer service is also wonderful. Kelly is a super professional, very attentive, and kind woman. She works hard to resolve any problems so I can get my medications. Thanks to her, my life in this regard is much easier. Thank you, Safeway, for having an excellent pharmacy.
- KVKJ vancleaveSep 13, 20255.0RX always ready. Staff is friendly and will thoroughly answer all questions regarding each rx along with appropriate paperwork.

Who should get the shingles shot?

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