CVS

We usually rely on Amazon Pharmacy for all of my son’s prescriptions, but when it came to getting his first Omnipod 5 with the PDM, Amazon wasn’t an option, so we had to head to CVS. A word of advice: avoid the CVS on Redondo Beach and Western. I won’t go into details, but let’s just say it’s not the best experience. It feels like you’re on an assembly line, where the staff seems more accustomed to dealing with people who aren’t in the know, so they treat everyone like they don’t know a thing. They start answering questions before you even finish asking them.

However, when my son’s endocrinologist switched all his prescriptions from Amazon to a different CVS, things looked up. This switch was inconvenient because we found things cheaper on Amazon, but the pharmacists at this new CVS were way more understanding about the situation. They even agreed that Amazon might be the better bet for us financially, which I thought was refreshingly honest.

Then there was this weekend when we needed our flu shots. My son and I had appointments, but we didn’t book one for my wife, hoping they could fit her in. And they did, thanks to Hannah, the pharmacist. She was fantastic and made it work. My son, Xander, bravely volunteered to go first. I asked Hannah if we could use Xander’s Buzzy to lessen the sting of the shot, and she was cool with it, even though it was new to her. Xander asked for a ‘3-2-1’ countdown, and she obliged. My wife, seeing how well it worked, decided to use the Buzzy for her shot too. Before leaving, I handed Hannah some #SeeTheSigns posters from Beyond Type 1 in English and Spanish, because, you know, always advocating.

I made an appointment yesterday for The CVS Pharmacy and Minute Clinic. located inside the Target store to get the latest Pfizer vaccine for COVID-19 as well as the Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent flu shot in and out in 15 minutes.
Not busy.

Pharmacist Michelle is the most amazing rock star pharmacist, and human being I have ever met in to many years to count !! Not only is she as fast and expedient as lightning, but her precision is that of a grand pianist!!! She is laser focused on customer service & expedient care !! Michelle not only redials the insurance carriers when she sees an obvious mistake denial of prescription, but to my husband, who mentioned he forgot his wallet she offered to personally pay the small prescription fee and pay her back at another time. Yes my husband did have the money in his pocket. He just left his wallet in the car. I have to ask ask you : who still does that in this day and age ? Who gives such exemplary customer service?
The pharmacist Michelle at CVS does every single day !!
Michelle never lets the stress of the RX orders that are backed up 10 deep coming in from phone calls, faxes or walk-ins deter her from her standards of excellence !!! Michelle is an asset to CVS pharmacy and michelle is an exemplary example of a pharmacist calling is !!!

Michelle we see you !!! And don’t you ever forget that for a second !!! We see you !!!

Just 2 of the many many many very satisfied customers that you service with excellence !!!

Went here w/ my friend who is mentally unstable and they fixed him right up w/ the necessary medication for his troubling mind. Would recommend for any person, psychotic or not

great pharmacy great things to buy! thanks cvs

I got there at a good time, because there was only two people in line in front of me. After I was helped, the line went down the aisle. I also had to purchase something in order to take the medicine I just picked up. The reason why I gave only 4 stars is that there was only 1 employee doing register. If there are 3 or more in line (I was third in line), they should get another person on register.

24 hours always open can't complain
