I’ve had exactly one prescription done at CVS (because I could get my med for like 60% of the cost there) because they managed to be out of stock on my med on month two. Immediately switched back and haven’t had a problem
Exactly this! I’ve been going to a local independent pharmacy chain for years and it is a light-years better experience than either of the national chains
I’m pretty limited as to who my insurance covers, so I can’t go to any of the independent pharmacies near me. I’ve been going to the kroger and it’s great, they’ve never once had an issue with my insurance and typically order refills / reach out to my dr for a new script before I even realize I’m low.
I have found that going to literally any other pharmacy besides walgreens or cvs is a significant improvement in competence and convenience.
CVS and Walgreens pharmacies are staffed like dollar generals. They can’t handle the load but they won’t hire more pharmacists.
I had a small pharmacy I loved I had to give up on when I got a new job and they weren’t in network. I was not going to CVS or Walgreens.
So I went to the hospital pharmacy that is in network. Can’t imagine that’s any cheaper but whatever insurance.

My in-laws have the same problem so I’ll get to experience how bad Walgreens is when they ask me to pick up their prescriptions
