CVS Pharmacy: what customers say

This Trustpilot profile covers CVS as a whole, including in-store services. On the pharmacy side, reviewers most often describe calls and messages going unanswered, prescriptions out of stock or handled incorrectly (including wrong medications), and slow follow-through on things like prior authorizations. Long waits and a hard-to-use app also come up. Positive reviews typically credit individual staff members for being warm and attentive.
