The CVS Pharmacy in Carmichael is a store filled with just about anything one might need, from pharmacy services and vaccinations to personal care items and pet supplies. It aims to make managing health and wellness needs easier with reliable value. The store itself is described as clean and surprisingly spacious, though some note the interior feels old. Reflecting current times, some expensive items are locked behind acrylic panels for security. The pharmacy is a key service, with customers visiting for prescription refills and COVID boosters, noting that staff can be very nice, friendly, efficient, and helpful. However, experiences vary, with some customers reporting always encountering a line to wait for medications and finding pharmacy hours inconvenient. Occasional issues like sloppily applied labels on prescriptions and non-functional automated phone systems are mentioned. While the absence of self-checkouts is noted, the store offers time-saving options like same-day delivery and free CVS Pickup. The location also features unique items like T-shirts showing hometown pride. Despite some challenges, including occasional encounters with distressed individuals outside, friendly and smiling staff provide a positive reason for customers to return. The overall sentiment is a hope that this store, like many drugstores facing closures, remains open for a long time.
This gem is so so underrated! They serve a middle-upper class but also serve an immigrant population. It’s difficult for some of the locals to appreciate how they make us great. This store is stressed, but that is not their fault. Corporate only looks at numbers.
CORPORATE HAS NO LOYALTY!!!!!
