West Alondra Medical Pharmacy

"You can buy any prescribed medication here. Courteous service."

"I have been using this pharmacy for the last 2 years. It WAS a wonderful pharmacy that treated me with dignity and respect until recently. I use mail order for over $2000/month worth of prescriptions. Some of those prescriptions are for psych meds that I desperately need to maintain a good quality of life and my career. Being a nurse during Covid has definitely exacerbated my PTSD, anxiety, and depression. When I didn't receive my monthly shipment of medication without ANY EXPLANATION from the pharmacy I called to follow up and find out why. After being hung up on several different times I finally received a partial shipment of my monthly medication (over a month late). I again called the pharmacy to ask why I only received a partial shipment of my medication. The young man who answered the phone (Shaheed) had no regard for my well-being and made it clear that he did not care about my fragile frame of mind. He began yelling at me for asking questions and basically told me that I'm not his problem and to contact my Dr whom I explained to him is out of town. I asked to speak to Jay who normally helps me if I run into any problems and this young man finally informed me that Jay is out of town until next week also. This young man,Shaheed, who identified himself as the manager then threatened to hang up on me. He continuously belittled me and contributed to almost throwing me into suicidal ideology. He OBVIOUSLY needs major training on how to deal with pts with mental health issues. This is the reason why suicides are on the rise and people with mental health issues stop taking our meds. It is really sad. If you have mental health issues, especially during this pandemic, I sincerely urge you to not use this pharmacy. They will only make things worse. They DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU and they definitely are judgemental of your diagnosis. They look down upon those of us who pay their salary. I pray that Jay reads this review and removes Shaheed from this crucial role he's in before he succeeds in pushing others like myself over the edge."

"Great customer service, very friendly, and great to have in the community. At West Alondra I always receive quick service, other pharmacys like Walgreens the wait time for the medication is longer and sometimes days."

"Love it here... Good people, no issues with anything. Good prices and good conversation ! Forgot to mention quick service."

"I would give this place 0 stars if it was available. These people are crooks and make up the prices as they go along. The first time I went there they charged me $35.00 and the next month they charged me $41.72 for the exact same medication. When I asked why the price was different I was told that the price of the medication increased. When I go home I was completely grossed out by the fact that they had dispensed my medication in an old used bottle. I contacted the FTC board of pharmacy to file a complaint (still pending). But it gets worse, after this experience of course I changed my pharmacy for my next refill and guess what the price of the medication was at Rite-Aid? $9.99 West Alondra pharmacy charged me 4X what the actual price of the medication was...I have added this information to my pending complaint with the FTC. I spoke to the owner of West Alondra Pharmacy this morning and he said that they did nothing wrong and will not refund the difference and wanted to explain why everything they did was correct. NOT INTERESTED in his story. Compton is an economically challenged city and he is taking advantage of the citizens. DO NOT USE THIS PHARMACY...RITE-AID & CVS ARE RIGHT DOWN THE STREET!"
