Walgreens didn’t respond to requests for comment. Sycamore declined to comment.
Several years back I got totally fed up with cvs and Walgreens. It was impossible to get ahold of anyone on the phone, and they were always backed up in the store because of lack of employees. It was a huge hassle because I take care of my grandparents prescriptions, and there are like 15 medications per month.
Switched over to a local pharmacy. Every time I go in, they have tons of friendly employees working, I’ve never had to wait more than a couple minutes to be helped, and I call and someone answers the phone within seconds most of the time. And the prices are about the same.
