CVS Pharmacy, Port Charlotte FL

I see a lot of negative reviews, but I had a good experience at this CVS. I scheduled a flu shot, and when I went in, they were efficient and professional. The lady who administered the shot was also very friendly and knowledgeable. I withheld one star, because I couldn't reach anyone on the phone beforehand at the pharmacy- they have a voicemail system which I used, but nobody called me back. Once I was there for the appointment, however, everything went smoothly.

Not a wonder this pharmacy has 3 stars…
I called to see the status of a mail order override to this pharmacy and the lady said that they couldn’t cut me in front of any other patients needing the same this as I.a mail order delay RX to be sent to this pharmacy. I was flabbergasted when the lady on the phone told me they couldn’t cut me in front of HUNDREDS OF OTHER PATIENTS…

my question is? How many patient are going without their medication because of the hundreds of pages full of people on a waiting list.her words not mine.what seems to me by observing when I came in to place my request and then calling to get status and waiting on hold for a long while…is that these are lazy people who could care less about being helpful in the retail pharmacy field they work in… have some compassion and also do your job that way the list of hundreds long will slow get down to just a few.

Most horrible pharmacy i have ever dealt with both pharmacist i have dealth with are incompetent ; the dr i work with called personally and they cant get things right

Everyone in the pharmacy gave me that burgen town vibe. 1 tech was on the phone making faces as a customer was talking, rolling her eyes ect. The male at the drive thru could careless about his job there. The pharmacy Manger kept telling out that her staff needed to help answer phones. If you are wondering what burgen town is.watch trolls.

I'll stay with publix.

Filled my prescription without issue. Helpful and nice. Went over and above for the guy ahead of me who was wintering here.

Hands down the worst pharmacy I’ve ever had to deal with. I NEVER used them for a pharmacy until I got covid and needed somewhere close to my home to fill a prescription for antibiotics and steroids. I was calling to see if I could be notified somehow when my prescription was ready and was trying to ask if I could just purchase baby aspirin thru the pharmacy drive thru so I wouldn’t have to go inside but I kept getting hung up on by pharmacist and had to physically go into the store to ask why I was being treated that way. Now they’ve called my phone 3 different times after and won’t leave me alone because I told them all off NEVER AGAIN.

Mostly very nice people, sometimes a little stressed because they are so busy. But still very nice. Very helpful with information about saving money too.
