Walgreens, a well-known pharmacy chain, has faced a range of challenges in recent times, as reflected in the reviews received. The store has experienced incidents of theft, with reports of young individuals stealing items and even ramming a car through the front doors to steal an ATM machine. This has led to the storefront being boarded up on multiple occasions. Additionally, the pharmacy has struggled with staffing issues, with a shortage of pharmacists leading to delayed prescriptions and reduced operating hours, particularly on weekends. Despite these difficulties, the pharmacists themselves have generally been praised for their patience, courtesy, and willingness to address customer concerns, even in the face of high demand and limited resources. Customers have noted the long wait times, sometimes up to 45 minutes, but understand that this is a result of the pharmacists' efforts to ensure their safety and well-being. The reviews highlight the broader challenges facing the healthcare industry, including shortages and restrictions on certain medications, which have further exacerbated the situation at this Walgreens location. However, the store is still regarded as one of the better options in the area, with customers expressing gratitude for its continued operation and the dedication of its staff.
I was waiting for them to fill my prescription for a few days, then I called them just to find out they do not have it in stock and cannot fill it. Why not let me know immediately? Calling them is also quite hard as they often leave you on hold for super long.

I've been on hold for >20 minutes. There is a human that pretends to answer, says nothing, only to put me back on hold again. Unbelievable.

By far the worst pharmacy. If you come to pick up your prescriptions plan to wait at least 1hour in line and expect for them to only have half or none of your prescriptions ready. There will be at least 15people in line with only one person serving the line.
