Safeway Pharmacy

Workers are not informed about WIC and were very rude about it. Absolutely anyone who works in a grocery store should automatically be trained on WIC. I have never been to a pharmacy or a store that didn’t know what WIC is. It was extremely embarrassing.

The pharmacist who gave me a flu shot today injected it too high. The shot should be given 2 to 3 fingers below the acromium process of the shoulder. She gave it only 1 finger breadth below and it felt like she hit a nerve. This is an issue that I have encountered at other pharmacies and there is a lot of discussion about it online, esp since COVID as a lot of immunizations are now being given outside of hospitals and Dr's offices. Three or four years ago I had to go through several weeks of PT for a very stiff left shoulder. I don't know if it was connected to immunizations but I don't want to go through that again. Please have the pharmacy manager review proper injection technique with staff who give shots. This is a very preventable problem. Thank you.

These folks are great always help Me get my medicine without a problem very kind people also

Been coming here for years. Most recent problem is that I requested med refill days ago and instead of informing me that my insurance stopped covering it they just didn't fill it. Which I found out when trying to pick up my meds right before going to bed before a surgery shift tomorrow. I would have been happy to pay out of pocket rather than not have what I need (and I need it tonight which is why I requested refill days ago) and instead of helping I get shrugged off and informed that they probably wouldn't get to it tonight at all. Will be switching pharmacies ASAP.

The staff is friendly and professional. I have been using this pharmacy for 30+ years. Staff were especially attentive during my cancer treatment and expressed care each month for the 5 years following treatment, while I had to take maintenance medication.
