So, I guess it happens at all of them one time or another....
I thought it was just me! I have encountered nothing but incompetence with every single pharmacy I have used since I've been here, including Publix at Spanish Plaines, Publix at Southern Trace, CVS, Walgreens, and Wal-Mart. Prescriptions lost, not ready on time, filled with the wrong item or the wrong number of items, not received at the store after being submitted online, charged incorrectly, put on auto-fill when I haven't requested it, wrong account and/or insurance information, etc.

Sorry to slam your profession, Barry, but I honestly do not understand why it's so difficult. If I'm doing something wrong to contribute, I don't know what it is. Is it better to insist on written scripts from my doctors instead of allowing them to call things in? Is getting a 90-day supply better or worse than refilling month by month? I've tried both ways. I really don't like auto-fill because I don't trust it, but everyone wants to force that on me.
