I use Publix at Mulberry for short-term medications. I’ve found them to be helpful, professional and have had medications I’ve needed in stock. I use mail order through CVS Caremark when I need a 90-day supply of anything.

I use Publix at Magnolia Plaza. It is better than CVS or Walgreens for wait times.

I think they are fine the people are good. And only issue I have with them is they fill most of the prescriptions off site so if you're at a doctor at 8 AM don't expect your medicine until after 3 PM the next day.

CVS is the most expensive pharmacy to use. Walgreens is the second most expensive. I changed to Publix several years ago after using Walgreens. Publix gives me my diabetic medication for free. Other scripts are much, much cheaper and with good rx, even better. they text me when my scripts are ready, and the people behind the counter are always helpful and friendly. I use the Publix at Colony.

How about the app is it good, it doesn't have very good ratings in the app store.

I've used CVS all my life but they seem so busy all the time and have problems keeping stock on certain meds.

Any input is appreciated.

your insurance providers should provide a mail order pharmacy, for long term care .. .. example OptumRX short term care/local pharmacy of your choice ..

Love it. No problems with stock and timing is fast. Also use GOODRX (free discount plan) and save a lot of $$.

To save money, we use Express Scripts which is our insurance company's default provider (cheaper and they will send 90 days worth). However, for the non-routine prescriptions, I would definitely use Publix.

We use Publix all the time. Both Colony and Grand traverse. I highly recommend. Paula T

I usually use Walgreen’s but have used Publix when Walgreen’s doesn’t have the medication I need. I had most of my Covid vaccines there and, this is interesting, when I needed Cipro and my insurance wouldn’t approve it, my doctor told me it was FREE at Publix. She was right!

yes, but if you ask nicely they WILL fill it on site if they have the meds @ that location, and you can pick up in a short time, not waiting for hours like @ Walgreens

Have heard nothing but good about Publix pharmacy. Have used it and very, very satisfied.

All Publix employees, including those in the Pharmacy, are very nice. However, despite their best intention, I found that due to upper management's hiring constraints the pharmacy was not adequately staffed to keep up with all the necessary back-and-forth with insurance, doctors, and customers.

I was surprised to find the Walmart pharmacy to be more on top of things. And the Walmart pharmacy app (now part of the regular Walmart app) is miles ahead of the Publix pharmacy app!
