What people saying about legal actions coming against this pharmacy is very near. Extremely unprofessional pharmacy staff. I know someone actively seeking legal actions against them by the time I m posting this. Make sure to record what they say or make sure to talk to them where the cameras are visible so you can use the recordings in the primary legal finding against what ever malpractice law suite you will be bringing against them.

As a lifelong resident of Jamaica, Queens, watching this CVS and the gentrified building above it sprout from absolutely nowhere was in short- interesting. This is an ideal location for centralized pharmacy services and convenience for a long-waiting Hillside Avenue, however I have had concerns with some staff members on multiple occasions. The pharmacists and pharmacy technicians are immature and have attitude with customers asking very basic questions, which is a major hazard for psychiatric patients coming to pick up medication. There are unqualified people working in the pharmacy which WILL LEAD TO A MAJOR LAWSUIT as this is directly impacting the chemical balances in human brains and bodies. I REPEAT. There are unqualified people working in the pharmacy which WILL LEAD TO A MAJOR LAWSUIT as this is DIRECTLY MESSING WITH PEOPLE'S BRAINS AND BODIES WHICH WILL LEAD THEM TO GETTING LOCKED UP IN A HOSPITAL. Additionally, the store is not only over-staffed, being filled with mainly employees, but the store is almost always an entire mess with aisles being blocked by lazy unpacking of shipments. In terms of hiring, does not follow the equal employment opportunity for all. I have also found that this store is racist, and I am not sure why there are only South American flags hanging in store, because this feels discriminatory considering there is not a single American flag in this store The flags are not representative of the whole demographic of the neighborhood, especially the South Asian, African, Caribbean and West Indian community that developed Hillside Avenue throughout the last few decades. I come to this location at least 5 times a day only to see that there is only one person who is actually working hard whereas there are 10-15 employees not only working through nepotism in their hiring methods, but avoid customers and actual work. Pricing at this store is outrageously disproportionate and the technology in the store fails on a regular basis. On a basic level, there are two signs for this CVS with different opening and closing times on the schedule, which is a sliver of insight into how much this store has been scamming this entire area. There's a literal teenage kid working at this store who, when I asked for help finding garbage bags decided to tell me that the reason he can't help me with locating the cheapest garbage bags is because he 'has no hands', which I really found to be unprofessional and nonetheless frustrating. On top of that absolutely all of the garbage bag options, despite different brands, quantities, shapes and colors, were all priced at $7.49 which makes absolutely no sense. A lot of the staff members have their old and mean aunties come into the store and essentially guard the store as whole families come in and take whatever they want. If this is a store for community members to just come and take items, not sure why I wasn't informed as my family is literally struggling to eat right now, nonetheless afford other basic needs. Also not sure who authorized this CVS to sell alcohol, 'FIREBALL" at the price of $9.99 when there are massive warnings about substance abuse in the store.

Very disappointed when for the first time I went there, as per prescription two medicine with 90 pcs for each, but they supplied one on that day & surprisingly the man ( Chinese probably, next time I shall check his name) in teller said you are not allowed for 90 pcs, he sent it back for make it 30pcs waited me more than 30 minutes. When left the shop I found only 1 medicine, next day went again & the lady in the teller ( Indian probably) supplied the other as per prescription 90pcs without any question. My question is if I am allowed for 90 pcs, why that gentleman didn't allowed earlier & kept me standing for long. So frustrating attitude. I want to give that man zero star.

Had my prescription called in and I called 4 separate times and waited on hold for 3 hours, 2 hours, and 3 hours & was hung up on once. I actually had to walk over a mile to this CVS, only to find out that my medications weren't even ready? Terrible customer service, These ppl shouldn't be in business, what kind of pharmacy doesn't answer the phone to help customers with questions or medical information. This place is a disgrace! The better business bureau should be called before some innocent person loses their life because of this pharmacy's negligence & laziness.
