Arlington Pharmacy

"We have been using this pharmacy for years and everything was fine. Until a little more then a year ago that is. Literally every time we call in our prescription and wait a day or two to give them time to fill them. We are told they are working on them and will be ready in 20 minutes. (Code for yes you called a few days ago, but since your here now we will work on them). Also, this is the only pharmacy that I have ever been to that "owe's" you the rest of your prescription. (filling your prescription short) Or substitute one dose pill for two or three that equal your dosage. It is so frustrating. Please go back to the way it use to be."

"Been here many times to pick up for multiple people and about half the time, even if you call them in, your prescriptions will not be ready. I even got told it'll be 20 minutes before it's ready 3 seperate times before I got them one time, spent a total of 5 hours running errands that day and they still were not ready by the end of it. If you want them on time, you better make a reservation."

"Our family has been filling prescriptions at Arlington Pharmacy since we moved to the area in 1980. I really appreciate the extra care and attention that the pharmacists take when explaining new prescriptions and any cautions or interactions we should be aware of. We raised 6 children so we filled many medicine prescriptions. Everyone is friendly and helpful and attentive. Can't get that at big box pharmacies."

"I made an appointment for vaccinations. The staff, none of whom were wearing masks (hello - there are ill people in and out of there all day) couldn't access the electronic registration system. So, more contact than is safe bc I had to fill out forms manually. Almost an hour after the appointment time, pulling up a neck gaiter is not "wearing a mask" as I asked the person administering the shots to do. I won't be back."

"I was actually expecting this place to be like many drug stores these days-- oversized convenience stores that just happen to have a pharmacist in the back. Arlington Pharmacy doesn't quite fit that bill. The pharmacist is still in the back, but everything else about the store layout was unexpected. I was going to pick up some milk while I was here, but, aside from a small cooler in the back (the type you see by cashiers in grocery stores), there were no beverages available here. It wasn't a big deal. I was able to run across the street and get some milk. Anyway, there is a gift shop and coffee shop here. The parking lot is easy to get in and out of. I do have one complaint, which is that I called them a month ago to get a prescription filled and the person I spoke to told me that they weren't accepting new prescriptions for my medication type. That was pretty disappointing. It's a pharmacy, you know.. you'd think they'd fill a prescription I needed. Either way, my dealings today went fine."
