My experience at Discount Drug Mart today. I had a 11:30 am appt. To get my Covid booster shot, I went to the back of the store and sat down outside of an office I assumed was for the vaccination, after waiting for 15 minutes I asked the women in the office if she was the person who was administering the vaccines, she responded that she did not have anything to do with Covid vaccines and suggested I talk to the pharmacy. I waited in line and told the woman at the counter why I was there and she asked if I had an appt., which I responded that I did. She handed me a piece of paper and pointed out to sign this and asked for my Medicare card and vaccine card, told me to sit down and they would call me back up. She then told me that the pharmacist would be right out. When he came out he told me to follow him into another office, I mentioned that I got a cold yesterday and wasn't sure if I should get the booster, in which he responded the first question on the form I signed asked if I was feeling sick, I told him I didn't see that, but mentioned when I registered I filled out all necessary questions , he then said that wasn't on the registration form! I suggested that they might want to post some signs re: the vaccines and he questioned me as to when I go to a dr. Appt. Do I just come in and sit down or do I go to the front and register, how rude! I was just trying to be helpful. Also the woman at the pharmacy told me she had to make me another vaccination card because mine was laminated and how was she supposed to write on that. I get it, everyone is over worked, but no excuse for being rude! I won't be back.....
