Publix Pharmacy at Centergate Village 5804 Bee Ridge Road, Sarasota, FL 34233

"If zero stars was a thing this place would deserve it….the lack of knowledge or just professional courtesy is a joke…common things like checking voicemails is “too much” these days…anyway rant over still love Publix but the guy in the pharmacy should be let go"

"Horrible run pharmacy. They do not answer phone calls even when trying the main number. Highly DO NOT recommend. It’s not the pharmacy staff….they just need more help."

"It's really just a very poorly run pharmacy. They are not concerned with HIPAA compliance as evident by how they loudly announce your medication for the entire line (which there always is) to hear. Then they ask again out loud for your date of birth and home address. This HIPAA information should be provided discretely via the touch pad screen. They are also visibly annoyed by anyone trying to save money using apps like GoodRX and would rather charge you full price by making the process very cumbersome until you give up. They are also not forthcoming about their manufacturers. If you are concerned about your medications being produced in countries with poor safety records and histories of carcinogen contaminated pills (e.g., China) then good luck finding this information out from this pharmacy. They will not tell you. Lastly, if you ever need to speak to the pharmacist over the phone, you will not. The phone will ring forever and nobody picks up."

"Beware I stopped by and dropped off a prescription to be filled and waited while being completed,(not completed in time told) once done was told the price much higher than CVS so i canceled the order. I asked for my prescription back and they refuse to give back."

"If I could give zero stars I would. They’re “not taking new patients”. Refused to fill prescriptions for a 12-year-old child because they’re saving it for someone who “has been their patient for years”. So if you’re looking for a new pharmacy, this one is fine with the patients they have, don’t want any new ones. Also I’m a nurse and all of my patients who use this pharmacy as well as my own husband have trouble bc publix never fills their meds and never notified them when they are filled. They do call a million times for nothing however and they do charge for drugs they claim are free unless you catch it and inform them the drug should be free. The are THE worst pharmacy in Sarasota county by far!"
