Walgreens

Pretty good in regards to their photo center but kind of lousy with everything else. The staff needs better training, they all seem lost and in need of help themselves.

I totally hate the walgreens on Shaw and Peach I will never ever shop there again., and i discourage anyone to shop there, i was so irked, I wanted to go Mel Gibson on the manager!

The store was recently rebuilt (took most of the last year — unbelievable!). My husband is passing a kidney stone today (Sunday), so I call his doctor for some pain and anti-​nausea meds. He phones them into the Walgreens, I go to pick them up, and the pharmacy is closed! I ask a girl in the photo center why it is closed, and she tells me that on Saturdays and Sundays the pharmacy is closed a half hour for lunch. WHAT??? I called the 800# and filed a complaint with corporate. We’ll see what happens — luckily, my husband is in between throwing up from the pain and able to sleep right now — going back after posting this review.
Update: Returned from picking up the meds.
Pharmacy Tech said that the Fresno area District Manager instituted this policy of the Pharmacy closing for lunch from 1:30 — 2:00pm when only 2 people are on duty, which he said is only on Sunday now.
Executive Manager of the store said that Walgreens had been sued for Pharmacists not being allowed to go to lunch, so this policy was implemented, and she apologized that the employees did not put up the ‘out to lunch’ sign. She said that if 2 Techs and 1 Pharmacist are working, the Pharmacist can go to lunch and the 2 Techs can operate the pharmacy alone; 1 Tech cannot. She also advised that if enough customers complained, maybe the company would change the staffing.
