Walgreens

No air conditioning? Are you kidding me?! It’s an oven in here. How do the poor employees survive in here?! Walgreens, you’re a multi million dollar company, get an ac!!! Smh!

For some reason whenever I come to this location the lines are always long and there are never enough cashiers available. Once, while waiting on a particularly long and annoying line, one of the cashiers was actually on her phone doing who knows what. Either way she didn’t seem too bothered by the line because she was more concerned with whatever was on her phone than actually being a quick and efficient cashier. Service can also be hit or miss; I’ve had cashiers that were okay and others that didn’t seem to have a clue what the hell was going on.
I’ve also attempted to purchase cosmetics here several times and rarely do I ever buy anything because the products (mainly lipsticks) are always already opened. I know it’s probably very difficult to stop customers from opening products because people want to see how they really look, but if I can’t even find an unopened product among 5 of the same brand/​color of lipstick, I’m not going to purchase. I doubt anyone else would either. At least cycle through and make sure there are enough unopened ones available.
Kudos to the guy who greets people at the door though. He’s always pretty pleasant.

Pharmacy — William needs to go. Incompetent and unprofessional. He ran my prescription on someone else insurance twice even after I told him my birthday. William is lazy and says we don’t have medications in stock and tells me to go to different drug stores. Does Walgreens know he is sending customers away and losing money? I think he does that because he doesn’t want to process a new RX.
Then, when I called to see if RX is ready he says yea come on in. Then it was not ready. He did not even check. No privacy as he’s yelling out loud about my medications and everyone can hear. He’s abrupt on the telephone telling me just come in and not answering my questions.
When asked to speak to management William told me no manager there.
This is not the great service I am used to receiving from CVS and other Walgreens.
Management needs to address it. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else!

First time in this store and hopefully my last. I walked in with my little one in his stroller both of us under the weather. The line was very long with only two cashiers until a third one got there there were more than 14 people before me. Baby was fussing and the items that I shopped were on the stroller canopy and some fell off. What appeared to be the manager some big guy named Velez-​Perez (or vice versa) was just looking and didn’t attempt to help. I was tempted from walking off but with sick babies I don’t mess around.
The gentleman in line behind me helped me and scolded the not so helpful person two feet from us, and says that he was doing serious surveillance security work for possible theft so he couldn’t help. He thanks the man for helping me and keeps his James Bond work.
The lovely useless roundish man tells me that this wouldn’t have happened if I would have taken a basket or cart at the door. I just looked at him and responded ‘how am I supposed to do that with a stroller?’ He said that then I’ll have that problem everywhere then.
I was pretty upset but needed the medicine. The man behind me says that his behavior is shameless. Then the roundish man tells us that because we made nothing into something that some guy probably walked out with a bunch of stuff. The man shook his head and said that it’s shameful to blame us for someone stealing.
I told him that if that was the case then he wasn’t a good security guy.
When I was walking out he said ‘Be well’ and frankly I just wanted to tell him that I’ll never come back there, but frankly I don’t thing to he cares. It’s sad that a Latino will treat one of his people badly when we have much spending power. What a shame.

I went in the store to buy some medicine because I’m sick with the flu… I had no one to go for me. I picked out my items and the line moved so slow the girl at the register was texting away and taking a long time ringing up customers when I get to the register the 2 cashiers decided to make fun of me thinking that I did not know what they were saying… They made comments like «go home shorty» I did not have the energy to fight with them but I will report them.

The lines are the worse! Always seems to be only one register open which makes no sense for the crowd they get in the Fordham location. Customer service? There hardly ever is anyone on the floor to assist during peak hours. I keep coming back for one reason — the dog weewee pads are only $ 10 for a pack of 50 — its a great buy!

They need more products!
I know Duane Reade is a company of Walgreens, however Duane Reade always has everything im looking for. This Walgreens always lacks the main essential for my visit.
The old cashier lady is extremely rude and unpleasant. Might want to consider heading to Jerome for the Duane Reade up there.

I simply came looking for a vitamin I needed for my child, I asked one employee, but he didn’t listen because he was listening some rap music on the headphones. By the way, I didn’t find what I was looking for.

Its a Walgreens in a major urban area. What more can I say?

This walgreens is a poor excuse for a walgreens. It looks like it has been there for years and it is basically brand newwwww… whatt the hellllzzz??? for some reason it looks gloomy in there.

A new walgreens location. It opened in September or so in the same building as Best Buy, Sears and Bank of America. It is clean, Huge and has great prices. I always come here during lunch if I need a quick snack on the run.
