CVS

"Update: 8/2. Slowest pharmacy ever. Helping one customer for over 15 minutes and not opening another register. They will take drive through but yet let the line wait in the store. I wish there were better options in the area as I would change pharmacies in a second This is for the pharmacy department only. The man working on 3/13 on register for people picking up prescriptions is extremely rude. He is never nice and very short with customers. This has happened before as well with other techs. If this wasn’t a minute drive from my house I would move my prescriptions elsewhere"

"Always pleasant. Fill my prescription in 15 minutes. Also text me when my prescription is ready. Nice"

"Ashia Shahnaser a PHARMACIST THAT HANGS UP WITHIN 1 MINUTE after repeatedly not understanding basic math and unwillingness to speak with empathy. It's DISGUSTINGLY unprofessional. Ask a question. She says I don't know. Then will probably just hang up or shut up because there is nothing she can say that justifies messing with peoples lives. Why does 1 person know what they're doing but another doesn't? I am not buying a candy bar, it's important medicine. No ethics and no demeanor to be working with the public especially with MEDICINE. Would you want your mechanic being head pharmacist? Well, that's what we have at this location currently. Add incompetence into the situation with misinformation and refuses to speak or acknowledged her actions. She toys with patient abandonment without even notify the customer. The epitome of unqualified to be working in the Pharmacy or any place with people. I intend to do everything and anything through all proper channels until it's acknowledged. Already spoke to someone. Will update."

"10/5/23 called the automated to refill 2 prescriptions. Done. 2 min later I get a text they are contacting my dr to get an alternative for an inhaler no longer covered by my ins. I call speak to someone I wish I got her name who informed me the script would be $1200.00 for 3 months and they will contact my dr for an alternative drug. Ok. I go to pickup the scripts and the cashier says are you aware 1 script will be $1200.00???? I said I just spoke to someone here who told me they would contact my dr. The pharmacist says That Was Not Done! Every time I have ti go to Islip Terrace CVS Pharmacy it’s a Headache!! Horrible reps they don’t know what they are doing. It seems they have a big turn around of employees."

"Why does it take so long to go through the drive through line? Why does it take so long when you pick up a prescription in the store? The thought of going to CVS to pick up a prescription makes my skin crawl."
