I went there for a while, but you actually have to call to renew prescriptions because sometimes they just don’t check the online form you can fill out. They also won’t call you when your prescription is ready, and I found the pharmacy staff to be pretty rude. I would not recommend it at all. I really liked the Walgreens in Ellwood when I lived in that area.

I was at Walgreens until it turned out that my new insurance (Anthem) didn't have a contract with them...which is how I ended up at Kroger.

That’s wild. I also have anthem and Walgreens is my pharmacy. Not saying you’re wrong, just saying insurance companies are stupid.

Yea, the Walgreens person sounded like it was 'for this policy' sort of thing that Walgreens didn't have the contract. She told me I'd have to try CVS or Kroger. It was unexpected!

Depending how long ago it was, it may be worth asking again (if you’re not happy with where you are now). That kind of stuff changes a lot!

yea, it's been a month (or maybe 2 now)...so not too long. Walgreens Carytown was a better experience, but I'm finding Kroger to be cheaper.

That’s good! Love our health care system, where we shop around for better prices on necessary meds for living.
