POOR AND MEAN SERVICE
by Anonymous
I was serviced by a very mean cashier at a cosmetic section. She is on her 50's. I bought several stuff and when I was ready to pay I was around cosmetic area so I decided to pay there since I saw this MEAN CASHIER in her area. At that time she's outside her register so I approached her if I can pay to her. She gave that look and got in her register. I ignored the attitude she gave me and when I put all the things on the counter (jus a small counter, not like the regular type). She kinda wave her hand for me to move the items towards her hands. I'm thinkin' can't she reach it? she wanted me to push it touch to her hands..what an attitude. I flared up and gave her the same look! Unbelievable..pull herself out of customer service coz she has an ATTITUDE PROBLEM.

This Walgreens is the worst
by Anonymous
This Walgreens pharmacy is the worst, I have been given medication that was for another patient my name is mary ann castillo and the medication i have been given is for maria castillo. this has happened on more than one occasion. i have taken medication from three differnt doctors before surgery and was given all three medications with the same doctors name on all of them. i was once told that they were out of my medication and i should pick my med at a differnt walgreens (el camino, ssf) when it was their job to get it for me. people there do speak english well enough to communicate with customers and are always getting angry with the clerks. i certainly miss longs drugs when they were in westborough a long time ago, things were never like they are at this walgreens. i have complained to the store manager more than once regarding wrong medications and i even showed him the medication so he could do something about it and all he said was oh. what a lawsuit if any should die or become very ill.

A huge walgreens. It's open 24 hours and their pharmacy is too. Very convenient location and parking is easy. Every employee that works here are Filipino. Not that it should matter, but It shows bias to me.

One of the bigger Walgreens store in the South San Francisco area. They are open 24 hours and so is their pharmacy. The photo department is awesome and they have a 1 hour service or overnight. Same low price.
