Safeway Pharmacy

Giving them a 1 star because they don’t have separate room for vaccinations isn’t fair. These folks here are hard working and always go above and beyond. They have been there for my family throughout covid and I’m grateful that we have this pharmacy. With vaccines they have a divider and some chairs and if you ask they can extend it for privacy. They are very patient and kind to my family. They even called me when I was eligible for the booster because I inquired before it was approved- something they didn’t need to do. Yeah there’s a wait but it’s faster than cvs and u get incredible service. Maybe more ppl should be nicer to their pharmacy instead of complain.
Update: still the friendliest pharmacy

Made appointment for vaccines, very easy to do online, was served exactly at my appointment time, by quick efficient folks. Plenty of parking in a covered deck, nice feature when raining.

So pleased with the pharmacy. You can get pharmacist or assisted on the phone and they proactive abut keeping in touch. They are kind and patient and usually 0-1 person ahead of you .Also their prices are great for most drugs,especially if you use GoodRx ,etc

Who likes getting shots? No one. And I just got a TON in preparation for upcoming travel. The pharmacist and team were timely, communicative, knowledgeable, patient, courteous and friendly. A surprisingly pleasant experience.

I have never been to this store until today. My Girlfriend's car ran out of battery and thr charging station she parked in wasn't working (safeway doesn't run the charging stations). We told Morroco and he said no one would tow the car. He was EXTREMELY understanding and his customer service skills are top notch. Safeway you have an Amazing manager. Almost forgot, he offered to help push the car. I said no but it was a sincere offer.

Transferred my prescription here for a gift card, then stayed with them as their service is pretty good. I receive automated calls when my prescription is ready.

The pharmacy staff and Pharmacist are very professional, competent and helpful. I highly recommend them.

Great phamarcy. No issues.

I had the worst experience a few days ago. With the night manager
On a Thursday night. I buy a lot of alcohol from Safeway. For reunions and Christmas parties and the past thanksgiving for my teamwork. I heard the manager at night. He is a white guy
Gray hairs. Always wearing a grey and burgundy. He was chatting with the other coworkers about the regular “Alcoholics of the store” saying “she’s a regular” multiple times. That was very sad to hear. Definitely not appropriate!!!

Just got off what used to be "our next door pharmacy" at 3526 King St., Alexandria, VA 22302 -with all our meds on autorefill. I asked for a daily blood med -Warfarin- that I ran out of and they neither filled nor alerted me that the doctor need to refill. At this point it's not great but it happens, the annoying part that the pharmasist REFUSED to give me two days supply !?

Despite receiving a ready for pick up text a few hours prior, they gave my prescription away. The prescription is on back order and is very difficult to get. They told me they were calling the person they gave it to to see if she had injected the medication yet to bring it back??? Uhhh what?
The pharmacy tech was very friendly but the pharmacist wasn’t apologetic AT ALL and was talking to me from her computer in the back- I told her multiple times I couldn’t hear her. She continued to speak to me from the back and was very unprofessional. I get mistakes happen, but an apology from the person who made it goes a very long way.

There is no private place for getting vaccinations here. Be sure to wear something that makes your arm accessible unless you want to take your shirt off in front of strangers or get your shot in the public bathroom.
