Also they lost two faxed prescriptions from DR recently.

Also want to change.

I switched from Colony to Pinellas Plaza. Faster.
And the Colony Walgreens lost my sons faxed prescriptions as well.

I use Amazon Pillpack and I am very happy with their service.

I can second this. DH gets his meds there, and if there is a problem, they offer solutions to make him happy.

I like Publix, but Winn Dixie's pharmacy is more responsive.

I go to CVS on 466 -- excellent service.

If you want exceptional service from and independent, you should try Village Discount Pharmacy in Wildwood.(352) 492-9333 although it might be far from you, they offer delivery.

Cherstubbs 02-11-2022 09:21 AM

In my opinion, both CVS and Publix pharmacies are great!

Ditto !
Use the app or website GoodRx for pricing all your meds.

Does anyone have any comments about the one at 441 and bella cruz?

The drive thru has been closed this week at the one on rolling acres rd, so you have to go inside, stand in line with 8-10 people for 15-20 minutes. I do not have covid, but according to reports, act lest one person in that line did.

Doctor called in script this morning before 10, that was not filled until 330.missed two doses of meds.

I know that this is whinning, but surely there is a pharmacy that is more efficient than this one. In the spanish springs area.

An independent pharmacy will work too. Not attached to walgreens, will switch.

Thanks, and sorry about the rant.

try sumter pharmacy
352-268-3454

I’ve always had issues at this store with waiting in store & drive up, lots of people in the back but only one person helping with pick ups, looking for another pharmacy too

davem4616 02-11-2022 10:26 AM

we use the one on Kristine Way in Deaton Plaza...never had any issues

...they are all shorthanded, and the one the OP mentioned has had a help wanted sign out for a while

Nell57 02-11-2022 02:14 PM

Not true at all. Please don’t politicize everything.
I’ve had excellent service at Walgreens on Parr Dr and the one on Burnsed. I also use a Walgreens when I’m in Ohio…. Excellent service. If I was going to change I’d probably try Amazons new pharmacy

Priebehouse 02-11-2022 04:07 PM

Agree on the Winn-Dixie

kkingston57 02-11-2022 04:15 PM

I use Publix, which is a couple of blocks north on 27/441. Have had same problems, but no drive thru. They are very helpful. Helped me get great price on some very expensive meds. Seems like we are all in the same boat.
