Pharmacies in Burlingame, CA

“This is a responsible, family owned, dedicated group of caring professionals!! We've had terrible experiences with online (ALTO, NOWrx, etc..) delivery services and have finally found an excellent solution for all of our pharmacy needs! They have also removed all of our anxiety and stress worrying about the availability of certain medications!! They have been outstanding with customer service and our satisfaction!Cheers”

“For those taking care of a homebound person, I want to share how CVS helped me, especially the clerks and manages who understand the needs of the homebound, take care of my parents with all of their health needs when their own health care provider would not help In short, for dementia, they have "Bright Strong" with Ginko Biloba, and Choline, though not a cure, but it helps, and is much cheaper than stronger brands, which may be more effective, but are very expensive to use daily. Be aware that dementia can influence one's inability to walk or transfer. As my parents ability declined, CVS had canes, walkers, wheelchairs and commodes that were very helpful For skin cancer, "Skin Tag Oil", again, not a cure, but seemed to prevent my mom's skin cancer from growing, which became an open wound about 1 inch diameter, and keeping a stasis. It may be the ingredient "Thuja Occidentalis" made from conifer oils, that has anti-cancer properties. With this wound care with saline solution, sometimes hydrogen peroxide, which deeply cleanses and may have anti-cancer properties, yet, too much can prevent healthy skin from regrowing, and iodine, which may have anti-cancer properties, with rolled gauze used as a bandage and hold with clear or cloth tape. If wound is more serious then use gauze pads or adhesive bandages. For incontinence, 3x4 ft thick cloth pads which are washable were helpful at night and as padding on the wheelchair, and adult undergarments, be it Depends or the CVS brand worked well For bed sores, if minimal, like skin irritation, then Caladryl or the CVS brand are good, but they can get worse quickly and become an open wound, then use Caloseptine, a thick cream, which works well, and maybe cover with an adhesive bandage For bowel movement issues, to keep things regular and avoid constipation or diarrhea, daily probiotic yogurt, like Acitiva, with a good fiber cereal like Grape Nuts, which taste good together, and a spoonful of Metamucil (try different spoon sizes to find what works for the individual) helps a lot. For difficulty in urination, or prostate issues, especially if typical medication from doctors loses its ability, they say the issue is that the prostate has grown with old age and limits the urethra, which is true, but there are natural remedies that deal with urinary tract and kidney infections that result, and for women, not necessarily related to the prostate, but other factors. So, Saw Palmetto, one pill per day and maybe work up to two or three per day, find out what works for the individual, three may be too strong, but Saw Palmetto, I found, going back a century, made from the Palm Plant, has been used to decrease prostate gland, regulating the change in hormones that occur in old age, that cause the increase. Also, difficulty in urination is not only because of growth of the prostate, but of the resulting urine that remains in the gall bladder unable to expel, and can cause infection in the Urinary Tract System, including the kidneys 100 % cranberry juice (most are only 25%, so look at the label), about 4 oz per day and 8 cups purified water or 600mls water per day helps. Also, one or two garlic pills and maybe one tumeric pill per day helps prevent bacterial infections in the urinary tract system Again, thank you to CVS and all the staff who provide this service to those with health problems. I write this as a summary of online resources such as Webmed where doctors and homebound people give advice”

“The staff members are helpful, convenient location. Some of the item needs to be restocked (make up, snacks,etc). I always would love to shop their discounts because the deals are really really good”

“Hospitals. It's often easy to find out what is wrong... so I understand harsh reviews. They are useful & that's great because there is the ability to improve! Mills has been around for a long time- and yet it is modern, tech-savvy and the doctors and nurses work as a team. Our stay is at Christmas-time. The most heart-wrenching ‍time to be here. However, we have been happily surprised at the willingness to find out what is REALLY wrong. We are here for a cardiac issue, that means a BP check every 2 hours... that means lights on at 2am and 4am etc, with questions and possibly consultations. The staff and Docs are great! We appreciate their diligence and thoroughness. The meals are hot, tasty and well-prepared + big variety on menu. Delivered in about 30 minutes / or preorder. The Room is super clean and comfortable. I was invited to stay with my hubby- wow, a bed was made up for me! Variety oof rooms, clearly marked with cautions like "fall hazard" marked on the door. Nurse / doctor names are marked on a white board so changes are easy to see. I am so grateful that everyone explains what they are doing, in a courteous and thoughtful way. I am confident they will figure out the issues, but while that is on-going he is resting peacefully. this is the best place for him to be, safe and calm. Thanks Mills, it's our first time here, and you are super stars.”

“Surprised to see a rating below 3.5 stars here.Then I scrolled down and read them and understood why.Well, I get that many of you are likely coming here to use the 24-hour pharmacy as advertised by them. However, given the current state of affairs, I hope that people could be more understanding and compassionate about the circumstances.I generally come here weekday mornings to shop for items that I cannot find in my neighborhood CVS in San Francisco. I've asked my local store about ordering my desired items but they are unable to stock the shelves with what I want. I recently visited and the item was in the lockbox. I rang the doorbell and a gentleman kindly brought my purchase items to the counter for the cashier to ring up. I had a 30% off entire purchase coupon as well as a 40% off one item from my friend that I used in buying a number of items. All told, I was in and out in less than ten minutes, even with one person ahead of me in line.I will be back when my friend is short on that unavailable in SF item. Thanks for meeting my needs, CVS.”

“Having just moved to Burlingame from out of state, this was my first time in. I had called in my prescriptions and they was ready for me. It was mid-afternoon and I had just one customer in front of me. Within a couple of minutes it was my turn and the person behind the glass was cheerful and helpful. So, so far, so good!”

“Walgreens Burlingame has a fantastic photo department. The employees who work the photo station, particularly Kevin, are great. I have gone to the Walgreens on 3rd Street multiple times for orders and they are never ready. When I go to the Walgreens in Burlingame, they are always very prompt and helpful.”

“Went to Walgreens Burlingame/Broadway Store to buy a birthday present and wrapping paper and also had a rather complicated return. Darlene was the cashier that helped me and she was wonderful! She was professional, very friendly, very calm and a good listener. She took care of my transaction quickly and I was on my way. My return transaction could have been made complicated and stressful with the wrong clerk. Darlene was the best! Hope she continues to work at the Burlingame/Broadway store. Maybe she can pass her excellence in customer service on to her co-workers!!”
