Editorial Review for Walgreens – by Robyn Galbos

In Short
Founded in 1901 in Chicago by Charles R. Walgreen Sr., this neighborhood pharmacy has grown to be one of the nation's largest drugstore chains. Each store carries 25,000 different items--from cleaning products to electronics and greeting cards. Store features include a computerized system connecting pharmacies nationwide via satellite, grocery-store food aisles, one-hour photofinishing and an automated phone system for prescription refills and pre-arranged pickup times. Other services include in-store flu shots and childhood immunizations.

I dropped off 3 prescriptions. Two were for one baby and the other was for another child. It was a Tuseday night at 9pm. I was told that prescription A wouldn't be in until Friday and that prescription B and C would be a 30 minute wait. They weren't high priority (thank goodness) so I said I would just come back Friday for all three. I couldn't make it Friday so I came back Saturday this time with both kids. I was told that prescription A was ready but that B and C were out of stock and wouldn't be in until Monday. I asked them how was that possible if I could have waited on Tuesday and picked up both then? They weren't helpful. So I came back on Tuesday - a full week after I dropped off all three. I was told that they had prescription B but HAD NO RECORD OF PRESCRIPTION C. WHAT?!?!? They treated me like I was lying and never dropped it off. They kept asking if I was sure. Finally, after calls to the pediatrician and two days later I was able to pick up prescription C. Seriously, do not use this pharmacy if you actually need the prescription. This was not the first time we had problems where they didn't have the stuff we needed in stock. It's also very difficult to access by car because you can't make any lefts out of the parking lot.

Pros: Open late

Cons: PHARMACY IS AWFUL, location is difficult to get to.
