My vote is yes. I can't recall the last time I've used them without any issue or delay.

Theres a CVS in Metairie, can't remember the exact one, but that one is on par with what you are talking about.

I used to stop by there on my way home about every other day to pick up random shite Id need on a day to day basis about 3 1/2 years ago and never had a problem.

Run on sentence with too many phrases

eta:
Oh yea, I guess I never actually used the pharmacy there though. So now my post is shite

I don't know if it is or not, but I'll bet the worst is a WALGREEN's.

Why don't you use another pharmacy? There are literally 2 others at that intersection

I usually use the CVS, some of the staff is nice and they usually have what I need. Haven't gotten a script filled at the walgreens, but the two times I've been there were more than enough. Weird that the cop usually sits at that corner or the rite aid, never the cvs...

The cvs by LSU (next to BWW) has a good pharmacy. Not 24 hrs, but later hours and good staff. For one of the few 24 hour pharmacies, I don't know why that walgreens is so poorly staffed.

It's pretty bad all around. From the entrance into the lot being a difficult turn for lots of folks to checkout. Diapers in the lot, panhandlers, long wait lines, shite in the aisles, exits from the lot, undesirable fellow shoppers. It's bad.

Cvs across the street is better but not much.

"Wallgreens"


Maybe they're treating you like shite cause you misspell their name?

You need to go ahead and make the switch to local pharmacy. I did that 2 years ago and my experience is so much nicer now.

The only drawback is the hours. I can't stress how great it is to phone in a prescription, drive there and it's already filled. And to boot the checkout clerk has a smile on her face and is friendly. I almost forgot what that was like over the years dealing with the Walgreens, CVS, and Rite Aid of the world.

I just dropped Walgreens for the same reason. My doctor recommended using Fast Access Specialty Therapeutics and so far they have been on the ball. Unfortunately I have Sarcoidosis so I get a couple of prescriptions each month. They ship them and I get them the next day. They are also cheaper than Walgreens for the drugs I take.
