  I was dispensed a prescription medication by this pharmacy that was incorrect, and, when I checked with my Doctor about the change why the pharmacy had given me this medication instead, my Doctor told me he had not received any calls from the pharmacist and that this medication would never be dispensed for my condition. When I spoke to the pharmacist, he looked like he had not slept in 3 days, at least, as his eyes were so blood shot that I was surprised he could have a cognizant conversation at all. He explained that the prescription was "unreadable" and that the pharmacist on duty had called to verify the medication with my Doctor. Total BS. I don't know how they could have misread the Rx, as I could plainly read the original, however, when I requested their copy on file, I found their scanned version so horrible that I could see what he was talking about. However, the original was completely legible, and, I know that the pharmacist did not speak with my doctor, except maybe in his head, as he was either sleep deprived or high, as my Doctor would never have approved a medication change for this condition, and, he NEVER would have prescribed me this specific medication. This pharmacy should be cited for not having properly functioning equipment, and, otherwise, their pharmacists should have to go back to school and relearn pharmacodynamics, and pharmacology, as I am better informed about the medication and their side effects from the written documents received when picking up a medication than asking this staff. I suffer from Lupus SLE as well as RA, this pharmacy staff is fortunate that I did not have an adverse reaction to this medication. None of this staff should be able to work until they actually know what they are doing. There have been other issues, as well, but I believe that this says it all. Do NOT use this pharmacy! YOU MIGHT END UP DEAD!

  Honestly I see the negative reviews but I don't understand why. I've been in here about 50 times new and have never felt like things were sub par. This is after all a twenty four hour cvs, where will you find another store like this? Haven't had a bad experience yet.
