REVIEWS OF Shoppers Drug Mart IN Dawson Creek

Stephanie L

After my son's refills run out I will be going to a different pharmacy in Perth. I do not mind the wait times, things happen, places get busy. I notice this is the biggest complaint about this location. That being said, the one pharmacist is highly unprofessional. He has messed up my Mother's prescriptions and he was also very unprofessional during a consultation about my son's thrush medication on today's date around 4:30 pm. I understand the pharmacist has a responsibility to inform patients about risks and precautions to make sure an infant/child does not develop thrush, but he was rude telling me, "the reason why this keeps happening to your son is because you are not sterilizing the bottles properly". First of all, this is the first and only time that my son has ever had thrush. Secondly, there needs to be a professional line of informing a patient versus being rude and misinformed or jumping to conclusions. To clarify, it was not Myron Li, his consultations have always been professional, it was the other pharmacist.

Geraldine H.

Some nice staff at this store but some that have no "people skills" at all. And yes, there are often expired items on the shelves. On the plus side, some good sales/offers at times too.

Jordan Wills

Good selection and quality goods but too expensive.

Stacey Rodley

Kenneth Smith

Great service. Staff are friendly and helpful. Never a stressful experience. Sometimes patience is needed when there is a high customer volume.

Addy Garrah

Sometimes helpful, good hours, good stock of stuff, good clearance prices it waits and line ups can be a little long sometimes. Over all, still a great store I visit weekly.

Craig H

Staff are always helpful and friendly and the pharmaceutical team will spend time with you to answer any questions or concerns. I drive past other pharmacies to shop here.

Julie Ann

Shoppers staff were fine, it was the Pharmacist here, a Male who was abusive to me and mean and controlling. He raised his voice at me and tried to make me buy full prescriptions even though I told him I just moved here and Needed a few meds till I found mine. He did not care. I have 100 per cent insurance coverage on my meds and I am also a Veteran with a Severe Mental Illness and he did not care. He said he would charge me full price for a few pills, almost 70 dollars, instead of showing me compassion and caring to help me for a few days. I walked out very stressed and worried with no help from him. He also was going to make me wait another hour after already waiting an hour for meds from there. I never went back. If I gave this Pharmacist a 1 out if 10 rating for how mean he was to me on my first visit, I would give him a 10, being the meanest Pharmacist I have ever met. I suggest u go elsewhere, anywhere else is better than this place. I was hurt and I felt worried about my meds, I also felt afraid of this Pharmacist and I left very rapidly after he was so mean to me. I gave him none of my money and I went elsewhere. But the rest of the store and staff are nice I'll shop there for sure just not for medicine. He should feel ashamed of himself for his lack of professionalism here.

i had a concern about service levels and the owner was very quick to address the issue and resolve it. She is concerned about her customers and was helpful in showing me the online prescription renewal service.

Dino

Generally I find myself waiting in a line of 5 or 6 people with only one cashier. Other times I have stood at the checkout counter for 5 to 10 minutes alone waiting for a cashier. I will not support self checkout. I’ve actually avoided shoppers for so long I don’t think I’ve been there in 6 months. Ive gone into shoppers several times looking for an electronic item on sale in the flyer which they never have. Why advertise it in the flyer if you don’t carry it?

Terry Crosbie

Thank you for giving my husband and I our 2nd dose. Staff was very good and pleasant, even though I witnessed 2 different customers giving them a hard time while waiting for our needles. Not sure how they kept their cool, but very impressive.

Aydan Lalonde

I have been really disappointed with the service by the pharmacy team at my local Perth location. I was inquiring about booking a COVID Rapid Antigen test for a trip in January. The gentleman pharmacist wasn't very responsive to my questions and just told me to book a test online. There was no lineup behind me, he just appeared he didn't want to help answer my questions. Anyway, I went to the shoppers website and and had a terrible experience trying to book a test. It redirected me to the LifeLab website and wants me to pay $150??? Tried calling The Perth shoppers twice, no response . So I call Smiths Falls shoppers 1min later Shawn a wonderful pharmacist took the time to LISTEN to my concerns and booked me an appointment over the phone. I understand it's a stressful time for us all but Shoppers is the only business providing this service in the area and should be ready to assist it's community.This is the wrong approach to service and the booking Experience on the website needs to be clear for rapid testing/ traveling. Apologies for the lengthy message but this is an important review for service

Awesome great place

Prudence Newton

After moving to Elliot lake I had my prescriptions transferred to this location. What a bad idea. Prices are CRAZY!!! Staff is uneducated. And wait times are pathetic. 24 hrs to be filled.? Think it’s time to transfer my business to Rexalls.

Kathy and Rick

Have been with them for years, and not sure what has changed, perhaps a new owner or pharmacist, but we recently moved our prescription files to another drug store. Personal service and assistance almost non existent, not reading our prescription file notes, etc. Very disappointed.

Moyra Turkington

Consistently frustrated by the pharmacy at this location. They don't have common meds on hand (even standard antibiotics) often give you just a few days and make you come back. As I have to drive 20 mins both ways to come in this is very frustrating. The organization is also lacking. It frequently takes 20 mins to locate a filled prescription. Even if you called in to verify your meds are ready you might show up and find out they are not ready, or are incomplete.

Robbi Runner

Shoppers service is always the best on the river!

Serena Joy

The information about covid-19 vaccines is confusing and misleading. Please update your website so people know you are only offering vaccines to high risk populations. It's also impossible to book a vaccine online, even though it's supposedly an option on the website. I had great difficulty getting my call through and checked the number several times. When the phone did pick up, I was on hold for 15 minutes. After reading some of the other reviews I can see there is work that needs to be done to improve the customer experience.

The Double O Doobie Project

Too expensive of a store....

Ohana Farms

pharmacy doesn’t know the difference between night and day never mind getting your meds right, anything out of the ordinary requiring thought they can’t handle.. Try and be prepared and call your meds in early on the am stand around waiting being accused of using the automated system after you’ve spoke to a human and know you did... Thanks for valuing my time. Several times this past week nothing but problems getting my RX’s for the fam..

Erica Montes

I still had 10 minutes but you have to close… no big deal. Useless people

Reliable services

Encaris

I can not believe how unorganized and unprofessional this pharmacy is. I have never had to wait over 2 HOURS for a perscription to be filled. Im not going to put down my multiple experiences here but DO NOT use this pharmacy.

C No

Update your phone number, couldn't get ahold of pharmacist, only option takes me back to beginning

ShiniGami Gizmo

Older grey long haired pharmacy tech. Extremely rude to me and her fellow employee.. i asked if prescription was ready she said yes, but pharmacist has to sign it off.. and it will be awhile. They continued to yell at her partner taking prescriptions . Lady needs to chill and show more customer service .

Auni Milne

As she has generously done many times before, my wife stopped by this afternoon to pick up two prescriptions that were ready for me, waited in line for 20 minutes, only to be told they wouldn't release them without photo ID. The people behind the counter were uncompromising and then positively rude to me when I phoned to complain. We will no longer to be going to this Shoppers, but will go the lovely folks in Almonte instead.

Great Pharmacy! I called first to transfer my prescription from another pharmacy. It took a while to get through on the phone but this is understandable considering we are in a pandemic. While talking on the phone, the pharmacist was able to find smaller doses of my medication because I was working with my doctor to adjust dosage to minimize side effects. She went and checked their inventory to make sure they had enough of the lower dose pills. They contacted the other pharmacy quickly and my prescription was ready when they said it would be ready. Thanks for the helpful and prompt service.

Riana Collard

Tanis McIntosh

Not only did the male Phamasist deny me my perscription because he disagreed with how my doctor perscribed it, he had the gall to charge my benefit plan for it.

DigzBig

This New Glasgow location really needs more checkout staff on weekends during 2 day sales.The lines get long as lotto tickets are checked and tobacco is purchased. Affiliated with Atlantic Super Store their prices do not match. Self check outs are way too close such that your neighbor may see your pin number or you might catch an elbow while packing your items. The pharmacy is efficient and did (still might) offer pagers so you could browse if there was a line up.

Zachary M

Keeping product off shelves so you have to buy more expensive, smaller unit packages and never anyone on cash so you're forced to use self checkout

J Huang

Went to this location for the AZ vaccine as a walk in. Josh did a fantastic job organizing and coordinating the line. Very poised and professional. The system, once I was in the store, was fine. My only suggestion is the waiting area before the shot is not well designated. Maybe a bigger sign saying" wait here for vaccine" rather that a "2" would be more informative. Mohamed was so good at administering the shot, I didn't even feel it. Ted, the manager(?) and his wife were very pleasant in the post shot area. Overall the store was clean and well organized. I had a great experience in this SDM.

Dasha W. Frost

Staff doesn't care about the customers. Like, at all. They never ever greet me even if they see me, sometimes they give me that "stop bothering me" expression when I just approach one of them and ask for help. Wow! Went there together with my friend today, she wanted to buy a lipstick on sale that, during checkout, appeared to be regular price. And the cashier totally didn't help us resolve the issue, she just practically told us to go check the prices ourselves... I totally didn't know that price check was a responsibility of the customer! She didn't even bother trying to call the other staff who could (possibly, maybe) help us figure that out. So, summary: in Shoppers, nobody cares about you in the slightest (and that's on top of missing price tags, expired goods, etc.). Very disappointed and never want to support the company.

My prescriptions are always ready for pick up. And they are always complete.

Terrible service. My girlfriend bought a cuticle remove that gave her a weird allergic reaction, they refused to return it, even though we had receipts and she hasn’t barely used it.

They delivered services and dispite a few bad seeds there owner is right on

morley greening

I've been in this store twice since moving to the are and I will never enter their doors again... I've had my very presence in the store questioned both times I've been there, that last time was as I sat with my family waiting an exorbitantly long time for my daughters flu shot, glares from members of the pharmacy staff who could not seem to comprehend my presence.. I must have been interrupting their constant gossiping about customers... two thumbs down..

Stephanie Barber

I cannot say enough good things about the experience I just had at this location with Brianna at the makeup counter. Not only was she welcoming an kind, she was so knowledgable and made my entire shopping experience amazing. She is a testament to exceptional customer service and I would highly recommend seeking her out. THANK YOU BRIANNA!

Gillian Webb

Had the most wonderful experience at this shopper's I called to see if it was pet fatteningly like everywhere else in Gananoque, Unfortunately they were not. However, the kind young lady at the makeup counter offered to stand outside with my puppy while I ran in and grabbed a gift for my partner. Lovely people.

Great staff and service

Kendra Sheppard

J C (Spaulding)

Great employees and store but the service at the pharmacy is lacking four different occasions i called the day before to get my meds the next day only to have to wait anyways to be prepared

Saberdrace D

Smaller location but good selection and I can always find what I need. Well-organized and well-stocked, they've been very reliable when I needed first aid items or medicines in a hurry. Always have great sale items too, on a variety of products and even holiday and seasonal items. I've been shopping here for years and they always have great customer service.

allan holt

Worst shoppers I've ever been too the pharmacy only cares about money and nothing else the customer service is the worst taking my business else where not like the care anyway

This is the closest post office to me. I now go well out of my way to avoid this post office. I could list more than a hand full of things that of happened but instead just take my advice and go to Peter st. They have the WORST customer service at Front st, not to mention the supervisor has a pretty poor sense on how to speak with customers. Personally I go all the way up to Westmounts shoppers, MUCH better customer service.

marie kimpel

Serge Blanchette

(Translated) I had forgotten my strips for my blood sugar tests in Quebec and the pharmacist was very kind, he called the pharmacy in Qc to collect the prescription and finally give me the said strips and a receipt to be reimbursed and everything went lasted just over 15 minutes. Great service! (Original) J'avais oublié mes bandelettes pour mes tests de glycémie au Québec et le pharmacien a été très aimable, il a téléphoné à la pharmacie au Qc pour récupérer la prescription et finalement me remettre les dites bandelettes et un reçu pour être remboursé et le tout a duré à peine plus de 15 minutes. Super service !

Mike Myers

Pharmacist was less than helpful when i had trouble locating supplements, One cashier for 10 people less than convenient. I highly recommend other pharmacy in town.

Daria Le Bleu

The other day I went in looking for benadryl for my kitty because he got stung by a bee. one of the pharmacists there was so nice and helped me find the proper dosage to give him. I am really happy with the service. Thank you ????

Awesome customer service

LISA DUCHESNAY

The new owner has a bad influence, she worked at Rexall before and treats clients very poorly if nobody is nearby. Argues about everything, yet is all sweet and pleasant in front of a crowd. She is lazy and sneaky. The store is the usual SDM set-up, the cashiers are very helpful, pharmacy staff do their best but there is a constant turnover of people, so nobody knows you even if you are there most weeks. Staff part time pharmacists are excellent. Post office trained staff are terrible. incompetent and slow. Best to go to central Post office building for parcels, or use the mailboxes for letters.

Marina Adshade

Called a week in advance to get my prescription transferred from another pharmacy. When I arrived at the time I told them I would pick up the drug, on the day I needed it, it was clear that no one had followed up beyond having the prescription transferred. Pharmacist seemed pretty indifferent about whether or not they got me the drugs I needed. Told me to come back the next day, despite already being told that wasn’t an option. Blamed the pharmacy assistants for the problem. Not a good place for anything beyond standard prescriptions.

Kim McCormick

I don't know why I keep giving this location a chance. I rarely have a good experience with the staff, whether that is pharmacy or the cash out staff. My most recent visit was the worst. The staff was incredibly rude and unhelpful. I will do my best not to return and suggest to others to avoid the Parry Sound Shoppers.

Phil Mestre

The store part is absolutely fine, no complaints there with the Shoppers staff, they seem to care and know what they're doing....BUT.... The pharmacy is the WORST! Super rude staff, never seem to have things ready when they tell you it will be ready to go... they seem to always be behind on orders and on multiple occasions, they'll be 'busy' but half the staff are hanging around chatting like they don't have anything to do. We recently transferred our orders to get filled at a different pharmacy.

Kadie Thompson

Very rude employees and long slow pharmacy

Sisely Piercey

Gib Mcilmoyle

Excellent customer service, always friendly & always ready to help!!! I shop there every other day between 11pm - 12am (After Work) and have never had a problem with customer service, even when there getting ready to close for the night. All the departments within Shoppers Drug Mart 55 Front St. N, Orillia are equally friendly with excellent customer service!!! I highly recommend Shoppers Drug Mart 55 Front St. N, Orillia!!!

I have been racially profiled in this Shoppers not once, not twice, but thrice now. 3 different incidents in less than a year. That says a lot. It's like (some of) the staff thinks I'm out to steal whenever I come here. Why ask to inspect my bag, and not the others'? What about me makes you think I'm a shoplifter? Can't think of anything but my race. Awful and humiliating. The only reason I ever come here is because of the lack other options. Otherwise, I would never set foot in this place ever again.

Donald Ferguson

The best Shoppers Drug Mart we have EVER been to. Great attitude and more than willing to help. Cannot say enough good about how nice the staff are here Absolute best anywhere

Edited, new review.in pharmacy..Wasn't given info for my concerns. My honest opinion is that there's so much confusion going on that I have trust issues. This is now the 3rd time that I have had extreme dishonesty. I was told I signed up for their online med ordering which I never did. Be very careful if you receive a message from them. I thought this could have been spam as I didn't sign up. The person in pharmacy repeatedly said I did sign up for online. I can truly see that they don't have my best interests at heart. The man I spoke with on the phone basically said I was lying as I had to have signed up, End result, was charged full price for a portion of meds as they ran out yet again. I have to go back in and wait again, and I have to find the money now to pay for this error on their part for giving me a script I didn'to rder. They don't do refunds due to pandemic. Pretty sad to be that way during covid19. I guess it really is time to switch to a smaller pharmacy. They work with you, not against you. The cashiers in store part are fantastic....I only have good things to say about them..just not the pharmacy. They really upset me...Money is tight right now and to be charged for something I didn't order upsets me terribly. I'm sure some people are treated well, but I haven't been.

Stayed late during a snowstorm to help me get my prescription. Always super friendly. Thanks!

5 star cuz i saw a really pretty girl

Jim Westwood

Great store: good products at a decent price. Awesome pharmacy and staff.

Jessie Stryjski

I was in garrison rd shoppers drug mart today late afternoon, the woman who was serving us was coughing all the time, had a mask on but still picking up our items to put in a bag, why do you have someone working there who’s coughing all the time, you have seniors shopping there and people who have babies small children, please only have workers that are healthy,

Henry and Agnes Wiebe

Picking up some prescriptions after being discharged from the hospital was made easy by a courteous, informative and efficient staff. This is also a very convenient location and it is easy and quick to get in and out.

Shay Mamujee

Find yourself any other pharmacy in town. Save yourself the grief. Service is poor on all levels. Came in yesterday, prescription wasn't ready. Said it would be ready in two hours, came back the next day and still wasn't ready... This after waiting 20+ minutes in line. And it appears there was another gentleman who had a similar experience and now as I type this, another customer's script isn't ready... No contrition on their part whatsoever. Their slogan is "Everything you expect from a pharmacy... And much more". Well I expected my script to be ready when they said it would and it wasn't and I get the impression I am not alone in this experience today... I don't think that's an unfair expectation of a pharmacy... Is it??? One star is too generous.

John McLaughlin

Cheryl Hunter

Very disappointed in service provided! Very slow and frequently mistakes are noted! So sad!

Brittany V

The pharmacist lady was rude and embarassed my family member with many customers standing around. She complained about other peoples preacriptions and how she needed to take her sandwhich out of the fridge. This was at 830pm as my family member was in dire need of ventolin which the pharmacist said she didnt have, which she was holding in her hand. We will never go back thanks to her poor customer service. It was a nightmare.

Ethan Green

Basic shoppers with the necessities you'll need daily

Extreme pricing and slowest service ever.Dont let your mom shop here.

Shawn Bottle

Quiet

Shane Whittaker

Decent selection of products and the hours are great but tends to usually be on the pricier side. Some deals can be had though if you watch for them.

Alex Dunn

Day three: After a collective 2 hours on hold so far, listening to the hits of 2017 and prior, I think I’ve become friends with the background static. As I watch the seconds tick by today, I think to myself that although the timer says 37:25, how much time has actually passed trying to get ahold of the pharmacy? What have I missed with the calls that come in and I let go to my voicemail hoping someone will pick up? How many times have I been booted back to the original menu? Could I speak along with it like a Childish Gambino hit? Next round I’ll try.

Taylor Doyle

Extremely rude and condescending customer service from the pharmacy over the phone. My fiancé called regarding a covid test and had a few questions as he’s rightfully very concerned, and he was basically rushed off the phone within 30 seconds of speaking to a woman who treated him like a child. He had the phone on speaker and I literally had to cut into their conversation to get her to listen because she kept speaking over him every time he tried to ask something. Very unprofessional and would not trust this location with my pharmacy needs.

Lisa Hagger

Terry Farrell

Prices and corporate profits are ridiculously high. I prefer a small local independent pharmacy rather than another big box store. First time I was there about a prescription there was confusion and it took many people to resolve. Apparently the pharmacists had the paper they were looking for. Very unorganized.

Ben

The curly hair guy at the pharmacy was very kind and helpful!

Fr. Reg Gilbert

Excellent service, friendly, helpful staff.

Richard Burnside

Great staff very friendly willing to assist with finding products getting info about the product or answering questions concerning health issues or making sure your prescription won't cause issues with another one you take.

Carolyn Tomkins

Great experience here. Found what we needed quickly and left in good time despite it being a busy Saturday morning. Really nice to have the grocery department and that the store is open until midnight. Based on the rest of the reviews I should note that I used the self checkout.

Shannon Hookey

Tonight I got off work from the nursing home I've worked at for 20 years. It was extremely hot today and I work in dietary so it was extra hot. I've had anxiety as long as I can remember, shopping is very hard for me. So I sometimes look at something and look at something else while I think about it, and come back. Every single time I'm in the makeup section I hear the same announcement, and suddenly some young girl is asking me if I want help. That is the last thing I want. So it's blasted across the store like I'm trying to steal and you have someone come check on me. If I want help I will ask someone for it. Do you guys ever think about the fact not everyone wants attention called to them, that you are making it uncomfortable for some people to shop? That I'm not stealing, I'm making a decision. Now because of my anxiety, I will spend the rest of the night upset because I was reading razor packs to see what ones to get, not stealing

Kay Kevin

peter zelko

Where to start with this lot? Well, they are incredibly slow at counting pills, dropping them in containers and handing them over. Everything seems to take at least 30 minutes, just enough time to spend more money in their store. If your medications are backordered, do not expect phone call....it will not happen, neither will they attempt to find alternative medication.Try to find another pharmacy, because these guys are hopeless.

GIVE THIS MAN A RAISE he was sincerely amazing and helpful, honestly everything I want to be when I'm working customer service. I HOPE YOU SEE THIS AND KNOW HOW WONDERFUL A HUMAN AND PHARMACIST YOU ARE!

Nick Scullion

This is For the Pharmacy. Store I've never had a problem. So I've had to use the shoppers drug Mart pharmacy a couple times when my pharmacy wasn't open that day or whatever it may be. I felt like because the medication I was on I was treated like a drug addict I walked up to pick up meds and was told to take a seat it will be awhile then I watched them serve to customers that came up after me. So after 35mims sitting there I got my medication that was sitting there ready for me. Just felt very uncomfortable and judged by staff also felt like they did not put the customer first they continued to do what they were doing until they felt like serving me and I've heard this from other people as well

Adam Chandler

Jenna Morden

Customer Service Lied. They said they faxed my Dr for repeats and I called back, told me I had to call my Dr. which is also another lie. It is their job to get repeats. I have been with out my psyche medications for a week now. This location needs to hire better staff and train them properly. The women I spoke with was rude and raised her voice to me. I will be transferring my file to another pharmacy. My friend warned me not to use this pharmacy and I should of listened to him. I have dealt with shoppers drug mart for years but this location has a real problem. This review does not even deserve a 1 star rating but it is the lowest possible option.

Joanne Mckie

THe customer service at this drug store is horrible. They have omitted needed medications from my dad's blister packs, put the wrong meds in it and just recently I couldn't even get a simple perscription filled because no one there thought to ask me while I was waiting in the store if it needed to go in the blister pack. After waiting 45 minutes they wanted me to wait again so they could do the perscription as I had originally requested.

You will not find a better pharmacy!

They have a great variety of items, including a small food section, they also now sell presidents choice brand, that is a brand that sells for less. Regular price items are expensive, but they always have sales.

Stacey Anderson (Kharma Scribbles)

I'm addicted to this store!! Very friendly and helpful staff, the best place to shop in Kenora. Make sure you load those optimum coupons before you head out!! What can I say about the Optimum Program?! Not enough! I love collecting and redeeming my points. Amy in cosmetics is a star, and so is the amazing cashier who helped me pay for my dog food!! The managers must treat their staff well because the staff treats their customers very well!

Pharmacy exceeded our expectations! Forgot our meds at our out-of-town home, Port Colborne's pharmaceutical team resolved our issue by transferring our prescription and we were able to fulfill our "time sensitive" missing meds. Thank you!

Eugenia S

It's a spacious and clean store, but prices are quite high on everything (comparing to its sister store across the road).

J Wolf

This Shoppers drug mart is one of the worst. The staff are very rude and inpatient. I had my doctor fax my prescription over. When I went to pick it up they told me I should have called it in to be filled. When every other time my doctor faxed prescriptions in they had it ready a few hours later. When I asked about why this is I was treated rudely. Then I was told I would have to wait a few days for my prescription when I'm out and need my prescription asap. The staff member was extremely rude to me and inconsiderate. I will not be using shoppers any more for my prescription needs or for anything else for that matter. Obviously I'm not the only one experiencing this from this store as I see in the comments. Maybe Shoppers drug mart corporate office need to investigate this store. But instead when they reply to a review they ask for people to call a number so they can give more information. This is making your company look bad. If one would like to be treated with care and respect I would go to somewhere else not the Perth Ontario Shoppers drug mart. Another thing they are not following or enforcing the social distancing or enforcing the walking down one way isles. Very bad for a pharmacy to not be strictly enforcing covid19 rules and laws. ????????????

Brandyn Snow

The pharmacist Andrew is amazing, he was furiously working to sign off on prescriptions and check the work so people are getting the right thing. Unfortunately the woman working the counter was lacking in customer service skills and seemed to have a case of chronic RBF, seemed like i was punching her in the face when i asked a question.

Absolutely disappointed with the pharmacy service. Called in a refill prescription at 9am. Arrive at the store 7:20pm and was told that they are busy and I will have to wait 45mins. This is not the first time this has happened. If I didn't need my meds I wouldn't be waiting. Hire a better pharmacist staff if this is issue as I have read in many of the other reviews. Very disapponted!

Do Shopper’s Drug Mart or other pharmacies frequently run out of Rx medications like ibuprofen and common antibiotics? Because these guys do. Delivery is terrible. I’ve bought frozen foods only to find them completely rotten or freezer burned when I open them at home. They sometimes trick you with the sale bins and stock them full of ridiculously-priced frozen food where it looks like they’re on sale. The delivery driver once slammed the door on my dog’s head because she said was scared of dogs—probably the wrong line of work to be in for her. I hate giving bad ratings, but come on.

Is somethjng wrong with the phones? No one is answering.

The staff is usually friendly but once a girl closed on me coz she had to go for lunch, found it rude!!

Absolutely love our hometown Shoppers Drug Mart love the ladies who work at The Beauty Department and the one gentleman they are all great

Hi I am one of the regular customer at shopers drug mart. I went today for shoping with my wife and 2 kids. while I was paying my purchase I asked cashier to use PC optimum card and 20× points on my purchase when I spend 50$ above. cashiers refused to give me deal she told this offer will start tomorrow so come tomorrow I called there asst manager Joe because as per website no date was mention I just want to have clarification on why information is not same on website and flyer. Asst manager told me we don't deal with website I dont maintain website I will go with flyer while i was having this conversation she called security on me and my kids to throw us out from shopping mall for asking clarification on dates that so rude behaviour I didn't argue as security guy was very intimidating on my family I just walked that place. ( 11801 100 st Grande Prairie Alberta T8V3Y2.) My Daughter really got scared after this incident she was keep asking me that security ask to leave. It was very embarrassing moment I dont I will ever go to shopers after this and make sure I will share my experience with my friends and family. hope you will look in to mater.

Helpful, friendly staff.

Good for sales. Always have luck finding the perfect card, birthdays,mothers day ect.

Kelly Hodgins

The customer service at the pharmacy needs a complete overhaul. I have had 2 issues this past week. Friday night told 20 minutes, 1 clerk did ask me he could help me, told 10 more minutes. At the 40 minutes mark I inquired and yes ready. The pharmacist knew I was sitting there and couldn't be bothered to advise me it was ready. Get your act together Shoppers

janet buck

excellent store!!! great staff super helpful and knowledgeable Products are reliable well priced and I accumulate points!! Awesome

Philippe Tessier

I must say quite impressed with the post office here. Yes I get a lot of packages but still the clerk knew who I was and grabbed my packages even before I presented the card. That's customer service. ????

Great service.Lots of sales

Jonathan Robinson

Polite staff and a nice variety of products. Whether you need something for a cold, or maybe new earbuds, or perhaps a new comb, they probably have it, and maybe even have it on sale.

Some things are pricey.selection is good .and staff pleasant

Slowest pharmacy I've ever seen, just terrible. I will not use them again I'm done!

Tony Mullan

One of my go to stores in Gan. Friendly, clean, bright and easy parking. Pharmacy is the best!

Amber Long

This pharmacy always goes above and beyond for me. The owner/lead pharmacist remembers who i am and has even noticed when I had to leave the long lineup. Came found me in the mall and made sure I was taken care of. Absolutely top notch.

I been with shoppers ever since I was 12. I can't believe how disrespectful they are. I will never go back I'm 23 now. I just can't believe how hateful they are. Now I'm with boggio's best switch ever. I'm glad I move pharmacy's

Laura Rachar

Typical good Shoppers Drug Mart.

Miss M.

Just there... 20 people in line, and 1 poor cash. Unacceptable!

Lynda Chandler

Stood in line up of 6 people waiting to checkout. Only one cashier handling cash and lottery purchases. Other cashier standing at self-checkout to help credit and debit customers, but no one using that checkout. She did not come over to open use another till to help with the lineup of customers. Likely told by management they want to force us to use self-checkout. So we were waiting and waiting as the single cashier struggles to serve us. We can't use self-checkout because it is a cash purchase. Finally I left store and went next door to Rexall to make my purchase. Quick service at checkout there. When a store installs self-checkouts they are not interested in providing convenience. They want to reduce employee wages at the expense of customer service. Avoid those machines like you do the illnesses you usually have to go to the drugstore to treat.

Craig Ritchie

What terrible service at the Pharmacy. Hard to believe after using Shoppers for my prescriptions for 25 years, I moved everything to Walmart Pharmacy. No one answers the phone, Pharmacist rolls his eyes at you, manager could not have cared less that I was having an issue. To top it all off, called the 1 800 #, like the owner told all of the other people to do,and was on hold for over 50 minutes before I packed it in. Good luck to anyone trying to get customer service out of this business. How can it take 24 hours to get Antibiotics from a pharmacy ????

Seb R

Customer service doesn’t exist at this location. Just sorry’s, no solutions.

Mike O'Connell

After 6 poor experiences at this so called pharmacy I have to edit this review. As a former SDM employee from the 80s when Melboracis was the price code I can't believe how so many employees at one place of business can treat me like dirt. Zero information on my meds when it's crucial to me, zero respect at counter, no offer to call when meds ready, zero empathy towards my health. Absolutely disgusting this is happening in Orillia. Thanks for coming to the Sunshine City. I will switch pharmacists and never shop at SDM again.

Devenn Doucette

Staff is friendly, clean store and well organized. I frequently visit for essentials and beauty products.

Matt Copeland Drums

Literally the worst pharmacy in the city of Orillia. Nothing but absolute incompetence from the pharmacy staff at this location. The sales staff on the other hand is very helpful. If you want your prescriptions filled on time and properly do yourself a favor and DO NOT use this location.

Shannon Jasper

One of the staff members there gave out a Canada post delivery addressed to my 12 year old daughter for her birthday from her grandmother with a 100$ gift card in it to someone with my old address because my mom accidentally sent to old address. I didn’t know I was waiting forever and then finally when I was given the tracking information I found out they had given it to someone else. The shame. My daughter is heartbroken and her grandmother on a fixed income in Ontario absolutely devastated. They should be ashamed of themselves

Adam Philippe

It's a clone of nearly every other Shoppers Drug Mart out there. Good prices on milk. Good discounts on sales. Very helpful pharmacy staff. Occasionally the lineups at the cash get really out of hand before they're able to put another staff or two on checkout.

Austin Flynn

All the staff here are super friendly and helpful. The pharmacy team is amazing and treat you like family.

Why your phone won't work

Jane Walker

Why put a sales floor person(pretty sure she was some kind of manager) on till if she hates it and grumpily complains to customers how she doesn't do cash and then makes you feel like a problem because she's incapable of being nice. Its like this lady, don't wear the badge if you cant set an example!

Xen Enlighten

Good people and very professional.

Sarah Hutchings

The manager of the cosmetic counter at the Gananoque store has got to go. Entirely bad attitude and just over-all bad attitude. Asking a simple question about a moisturizer will get you a scowl and an eye roll followed by the answer of I don't know. You'd think that the manager of cosmetics would know some basic skin care needs. It's not an isolated incident either, unfortunately has happened on multiple occasions. I no longer buy any makeup or skin care from that store. I will order online or shop somewhere else. It's too bad as well because they've got a great selection of both skin care and make up at all different price points.

Lori C

I have always had a good experience shopping at this store, very helpful as nice, it is always a pleasure to have a smooth and fast buying transaction when you are in a hurry, Thank you and keep up the good work !

MChristine Ouimet

The staff inside were very pleasant but as I walked outside with my purchases I was met with a cloud of cigarette smoke. This was at 9:21pm on Monday, June 29, 2019. The smoker was a female Shoppers Drug Mart employee wearing the blue shirt. She was standing outside beside the in door. I am a survivor of cancer and I don’t need to walk thru smoke when attending a local pharmacy.

I have never had a easy refill on my ten year biweekly prescription. Brings my stress level so high every time. Could a pharmacy be any less efficient?

Dan Fraser

Sells foods, magazines, books, medicine, and chiefly cosmetics. Chain store with big footprint.

Shane MacLeod

Was there yesterday for my booster and there were 2.0-30 standing around some people were there for there booster and some were there for rapid test at one point I went to the counter to say I wasn’t comfortable waiting with all these people there wasn’t enough room for self distancing that’s for sure….and to have people that were being tested with people that were there to get there booster is just WRONG what are they thinking is this just about money

Madison Bumstead

This pharmacy is brutal. Long waits every time I try and drop off/pick up a prescription and only a few members of the staff are even remotely friendly. They deleted one of my prescriptions, were incapable of calling when my refills were ready for pickup, and couldnt come through on their advertisement that out of province students could recieve extended amounts of their prescription. Attempting to phone the pharmacy with questions/concerns was useless as the line was always busy and no one would pick up. Would highly recommend taking prescriptions to Guardian pharmacy in Victoria Harbour instead.

Girls who work at the front of pharmacy are rude and very unprofessonal. Educate your staff first before paying them salary/hourly wage. Start from "how to talk to your customers 101". Very pathetic and shameful. Would never use this location ever again.

Krysta

Barrick is awesome and always goes above and beyond to help out customers. While he was helping me shop for a new fragrance he was a pro at multitasking and even took time to greet new members as they entered the store informing them he'd be with them shortly. He always asks open ended questions to understand the reason for customer visits and suggests many options with his broad range of Shoppers Drug Mart product knowledge. 5 STARS!!! Keep up the great work!

Chelsey Hilliard-Bienias

Sandi DeGeer

Tad pricey...and selection wasnt great in first aid supplies

Nicholas Robertson

Aisles are noticably narrower than other Shoppers Drugmart locations which is worstened by all of the pop-up displays and awkwardly placed shelving. Same problem with the checkout/self-checkout area, very tight and uncomfortable. This made my experience much worse as I was carrying an infant in a carseat; it's like an obstacle course. I can't imagine how someone in a wheel or power chair would maneuver through this maze.

Very upsetting! I called to renew prescription and four days later they lost it. Who does that? No call back ! My doctor is now on vacation still no prescription! Very upsetting! I have been 18 years with shoppers I never knew that EL shoppers can be so uncaring and disorganized and so incompetent!

(Translated) The staff is welcoming and respects sanitary measures. It's like a pharmaprix / Shopper's D anywhere but cleaner and with smiling employees.

Melanie Roberton

I am from out of town and asked for the pharmacy to have a prescription transfered for me that was very important and desperately needed. The manner and level of customer service was absolutely disgraceful. I am so disgusted in the attitude presented to me by 2 pharmacists that I want to complain to a higher level. I asked their names and they would not provide it, I was literally calling back and forth between the 2 businesses for 3 hours to only find out that the prescription still hadn't been transfered. Just a horrible experience which is so disappointing for a Shopper Drug Mart.

Very disappointed with the lack of knowledge of the pharmacist on duty. \was having cramps in my feet although I take magnesium and potassium regularly.

Normally I am quite pleased with the service I get in this store but yesterday I was thoroughly disappointed ☹️. I had to pick up a prescription from my cardiologist who had sent it to them on Wednesday. It was ready for pickup yesterday afternoon which was great. I paid for it and stated to the cashiers that I have never used this before, could the pharmacist take a moment to inform me of what I needed to know. She said absolutely and asked the pharmacist to speak with me. After watching him continue to fill 3 more prescriptions and was reminded that I was waiting he continued on. I finally left after waiting for 10 minutes. Done ranting.

Shoppers in Glacé Bay is the best drug store around in my opinion. Pharmacy staff can always find time to speak to you. The front staff is helpful and polite. Thank you for all you do! The pharmacists are second to none.

Chris Bailey

I had came in here for some cologne and a very nice lady named Bella had helped me, she allowed me to pick out a great decent price cologne that smelt amazing, even while helping me she still managed to welcome customers! She was definelty the highlight of my day. She deserves a raise for the work she put in.

Tanya K

Decent products and prices are competitive and the rewards program is decent but try calling and talking to a pharmacist or team member about your prescription, good luck. I mean, if you have nothing else to do but sit on hold with sharp distorted music then have at'er and encouragement of self checkouts is their own doom.

Brett Martin

Staff is beyond helpful. I was in a pinch and had nowhere in parry sound to get a very important document printed. Evan went out of his way to accept an email from me and print these documents. Saved me time and money by going above and beyond his job requirements. Thanks!

The cosmetic department ladies are awesome. Alex and Yukari - Polite, Friendly & Extremely Helpful. Their professionalism is a definite asset.

Sleepy Daimyo

Came inside and was met with glares from employees stocking the shelves. Went to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription and the pharmacist told me the "prescription had just come in, she didn't have a chance to fill it yet" which I later found out was a lie, they had got the prescription and submitted a claim to my insurance 3 days earlier. (It's fine, you didn't think I'd be in the pick it up. I get it. I don't think you should've lied about it though). They borked filing the claim so the insurance rejected it, and told me that the insurance didn't cover it, I was going to have to pay out of pocket. Whatever, I thought, I'll figure it out, and paid it. Went home to see that they had submitted a second claim (3 days ago, when the original one was rejected) that was still pending. Had to call insurance and untangle their incompetence, and submit my receipt so I would get reimbursed. Everything else was clean and organized and the postal office was ok though, I recommend maybe trying the other location in town, or driving to Kingston if you need to pick up a prescription, not worth the hassle of having to submit claims manually each time because they don't know what they're doing.

Not sure what has happened to this location. We have been with this pharmacy for years but the disorganization has been getting worse every time we need to use them. My husband and I both ordered a refill online. Got notice that my husband's was ready. Went in to pick it up and inquired about mine. Was told it would be 15 - 20 minutes. At the 40 minute mark I inquired again and was told they hadn't even started it yet. I said I would come back later. I wasn't even in my car 5 minutes when they called and told me they don't have my prescription in stock and that it would be at least tomorrow after 5. This is not the fist time this kind of thing has happened.

Poppa Pips

Check medications before leaving the prescription counter. Twice I was given the wrong bag of medications for my toddler. Highly dangerous for seniors not paying attention or poor eyesight whom dont notice. Tried to take to manager on duty whom simply says "oh you should contact the store manager".....what do you think Im trying to do! Do ur job before someone gets hurt

Sara Wolfie

They don't keep my prescription on hand, so requested I call in 24 hrs in advance. I did that, but when I went to pick it up the next day, they said they didn't have it, hadn't ordered it, and it wouldn't be available until the following day. I needed it now. When I asked what my options were for getting it today, I was told they couldn't help me, there was nothing they could do, and that I just needed to wait until the next day. The lack of care and compassion was blatant. The woman was more interested in telling me it wasn't her fault that the medicine wasn't available than she was in helping me to get it. I called Walmart Pharmacy a few blocks away and they had it on the shelf. Walmart had my perscription transfered and I picked it up 20 min later. But there was nothing Shoppers Drug Mart could do!

Alex Watts

Rubalpreet Kaur

Such a bad experience i ever had. No customer service skills. Its a complaint about the passport photo which was not taken properly- too much shadow on the face as well as it was not cut properly first time, the lines of cutting are visible and i came back all the way from my home to set it. And then the lady cut the picture diagonal it was not the size i needed. I was so disappointed because i went back to get my refund and the lady said their is nobody who can help me with it. I went back from my break and my problem was not solved. You guys needed to get a professional and good employees who can satisfy the customers need. I went there three times and still they could not helped me. Awful services.

Trevor Tittlemier

Absolutely terrible service....

John Smith

Service is great. Especially at the pharmacy. They are quick, professional and very polite. I'd like to point out the pharmacist herself who is a master at her craft. If there is any thing you may need I'd seek her out. The store is clean and social distancing is observed and shields are in place. Personally I think since this business is in Medicare, shoppers should offer a free mask to whoever comes in without one. Just saying.

I sincerely wish I could give this store a negative rating (pharmacy, specifically). I am absolutely appalled by the complete incompetence, and utter stupidity of the employees here - and it appears I’m not the only one who thinks this. They do not give a F*** about anyone and have a complete disregard for even the most basic of customer service skills. For the few months that I used their services, they managed to mess up EVERY single transaction I had with them. If you’re reading this, use Boggio’s Pharmacy in Port Colborne - they actually care.

K M

It would be really great if someone around there would answer the phone instead of looping the ads and making me make selections again just to get back to customer service. Get rid of your phone if it's never going to be answered. Don't waste your time calling.

Unbelievable this shoppers. Very rude. Some of which the older works seem to be racist. Was accused of stealing . Even went as far as charging me saying they had on video . But then when I was ready to bring it to court , they said they make a mistake trying to be apologetic. Lmao Sad store. Only ever one worker at the register when there's a long line. When I ask for help I always get rude responses. This has been going on for some time. With not only me but many others Are saying staff there treat people of color differently. ???? Terrible just terrible service. Minus 10 star

Jillian susette

Terrible customer services in pharmacy. I have two children that have regular medications filled at the pharmacy we are pretty regular customers i leave there more time unhappy and feeling judge then satisfied with the service. I am changing pharmacy after today's experience.

Deborah Bradshaw

Very disappointed lately with the pharmacy...last three times we have asked for just one month worth of our prescription and when I go to pick it up...there is 3 months worth....why???... Are the staff working on commission? Now I have to wait around while they have to re-count pills..today tried to sell me 2 boxes of my meds when I had specifically asked for just one... again had to wait while they fixed this.... thinking it is time to switch to a different pharmacy....

Andy Patel

About 15 persons in line , no protocol for COVID

Stuart Copestake

I spent 30 minutes calling to ask the pharmacy if I could get a vaccination but no one picked up. Then another 20 minutes waiting in line at the pharmacy to ask the same question . They said I would have to wait another 30 minutes. They need to hire more staff.

I find this place is just getting worse - we've been given times to pick up our prescriptions yet when we arrive over an hour later we are still being told we have to wait?! What is the point on giving an estimated time period if there's still a wait in store. We also had no acknowledgement for roughly 10min waiting at the drop off counter when there was 3 staff members standing within a foot of us - not even an "I'll be right there."

Leon Chubbs

Reallyyyyyy have a bad time dealing with this place. From not having Rx's for me (type 1 diabetic) and having to wait a day or two (not hard to figure out the monthly requirements for insulin stock seeing how all type 1 diabetic patients need to restock on the same amount each month without fail..) to waiting what I call obscene amounts of time (20-60mins for an already called in Rx. It's even occurred when I called in one day ahead in attempts to avoid that problem) my latest issue was a discrepancy with what I've been charged in the past for my insulin and what they charged me this time. Apparently previous month's charges were overridden at the cash register to a lower price. Not sure why it couldn't be done again. No explanation given. During the discussion I had asked to see my Rx history and it wasn't even listed in their system that I had paid a lesser amount. It's a computerized age so that boggles my mind that a complete breakdown of actual payments can't be tracked. I have more words and more gripes, but I'm unwilling to waste my time..shoppers is responsible for enough of my time wasted. I'm willing to speak to anyone regarding this if they have questions of comments. My name is Leon Chubbs in case you can't see it attached to this post. None of this would be a problem if I didn't have a life threatening disease..but, I do, and I accept nobody's interference regarding my health. Ive had to visit the emergency thanks to actions of shopper's drug Mart in Carbonear, so I consider this "interference" If this saves a type 1 diabetic from experiencing ANY of what I have than this post was indeed worth every second it took from my life. Can't give 0 stars, so it has a 1 out of default :/

Jolene Stahn

Convenient with a wide variety of things and open later than other pharmacies in town! Getting prescriptions here is always super easy and fast. The pharmacy staff are very knowledgeable and kind. I appreciate the connivence of their up to date systems. The store is well stocked although I’d like to see more of the beauty area like in other shoppers drug marts across the province (with more options and variety) - other than that would recommend this location!

Amy Marcus

Self checkout SHOULD NOT hold priority over the customer at the register. One persin at reguster and 2 in line behind and the lone cashier puts the line on hold to "check out" all the items the self checkout person needed. If your self checkout isn't working or too complicated to use, it should not require the only actual cashier to assist. Not acceptable at all.

anime addict

Honestly the treatment I experienced today at this store was disgusting. Shoppers themselves nice- the pharmacy well after today im changing pharmacies it just absolutely AWFUL. Reccomened the Save on Foods pharmacy if you wanna be treated like a decent human being.

Wyatt McParland

Pharmacist Richard Smith 5/5. Assistant told child can't use washroom, Richard went and walked child to washroom. Same Assistant told my girlfriend (international student) that if you don't have health card you can't get the flu shot. Richard showed her how to do it on computer rather then turn us away. Overall great pharmacy.

One of ONLY two pharmacies that dispense methadone, or one of its derivatives; in a huge area of small town Ontario.. It is a 3 hr & 43 minute drive from me, and if the highway wasn't closed in the other direction my only other choice is over an hour away. Are there closer pharmacies? Definitely. Do they dispense methadone, or any equivalent derivative? No, they do not..

Kid Kootenay

By far the best pharmacy in the area the pharm techs are knowledgable, friendly and genuinely care about you as a person something lacking in many of the other pharmacies in the area. On Top of the pharmacy Shoppers has a great selection of other personal and household needs the prices in many cases are better than the bigger box stores. The ability to customize your client card online is a great feature you pick what sale items your interested in and load those discount coupons onto your card this gives you even more discounts than other stores. In nelson they are open really late 10pm most days so you can grab both off the counter and behind the counter items you might be in need of when other stores are closed

Go to rexall for prescriptions. ???? I asked the pharmacist if they would eat the prescriptions fee that's not covered by my drug plan. They said No so I found a drug store that would. You guessed it!

Bought a 75$ gel nail kit, the gel polish was rock hard. Went in to ask about an exchange, got told off (literally to go away) until the virus was over to ask a manager, but was advised that they wouldn't help me either. ?? Ok.. every time I started to ask a question I got interrupted and told off by the makeup counter clerk, Alison. Wouldn't answer any questions I had, just repeatedly told to leave until I gave up. Absolutely disgusting behavior, I understand that everyone is having a rough time but there's no need to treat people so badly. Anyways 0/10 horrible experience.

It's too bad the nurse giving the Booster shot today wasn't as nice to the woman as she was the men. Making it evident we were more of an inconvenience to her, than the elder gentlemen she could flirt with. Thought it was quite Unprofessional. All in all, I find some of the staff, rather snooty. I Will be sticking with Kingston. Friendly staff there.

Emjay Halfmoon

I was told 15 minutes to wait for my script but it turned into 1 hour and 20 minutes later!! Upon checking the whereabouts of my meds at 15 minutes, all 6 people behind the counter couldn't serve me, was ignored and then told to step aside so another customer could be served! my 'script wasn't ready yet....1 hour later, my unhelpful pharmacists clerk couldn't find my meds and forgot my name. When they finally did get it to me it was more waiting to talk to another person who was standing around talking to one of the other 6 people practically the whole hour l was waiting!! Very disappointing customer service. I shant get any more scripts filled here unless I absolutely have to after hours.

They don’t know even How to talk with customer. Never again

I had called this drug store pharmacy twice to make sure they were administering vaccine shots before going in to get the booster prescription filled. After getting it ready the pharmacists refused to administer the shot. Left and right hands were not in sync with each other. I will likely be finding a new pharmacy after this.

I was looking at hair products for about 10 minutes while 2 staff members stood close by talking, not one offering to help, ask if I was looking for anything, or even say hello when I walked in. One even walked past me in the isle (going against the direction of the arrows marked on the floor). As I was leaving the staff member coming in the exit door pushed through me making me get out of his way. Customer service clearly doesn't exist there!

Fantastic Experience! If you ever need assistance in the beauty department, ask for Deborah - I went in the other night looking for foundation and she spent the time with me finding the exact product in the perfect shade for my skin tone. I am very pleased with the level of service that I received from this individual and I HIGHLY recommend requesting her assistance if you need any items in the beauty department.

Good hours, but everything is overpriced. And even though an item says it's on sale doesn't mean it is at checkout. Save money and just go to Walmart instead. Won't be going back.

I have been trying for 5 months to have my prescription filled with the proper medication After trying for 3 months I was told it was on backorder the 4th month I was told it was on the next order... Still not available... 5 months I was told I could pick it up on Saturday I went in on the following Monday to pick up said prescription and was told again that it was not available.. It is a commonly prescribed drug ..to say that this is ridiculous would be an understatement.. I have been a Patron of shoppers drug mart throughout the province for 20 plus years but but we'll no longer be using their pharmacy

Jen & Kevin Clugston

I always try to give the pharmacy a good deal of time when I need meds but the few times I've asked for same day service I've had the same problem. They tell me that at 11am they are still working on yesterday's orders. Get some more help if you are that busy! And then to tell me they want 24 hour notice on all prescriptions? I've never heard this before.

Steve McGuire

I have been a customer of this pharmacy forever even before they moved from that other mall. I was just in there on Saturday for some refills and other stuff. Asian male pharmacist was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. They were really busy but he still took the time and great care to listen and answer my questions. I have never had any problems here that don't get resolved when I deal with this pharmacist. I did notice some pharmacy staff changes but really nothing out of the ordinary in terms of service.

WORST PHARMACY EVER!!!!!! What a horrific experience. My 79 year old father went to the Emergency room and they faxed the pharmacy the prescription. When I called the pharmacy they said they did not receive the fax. I called every Shoppers Drug Mart Pharmacy in the Midland area and no one had received the fax. I then called the emergency room to have them fax it again. I called back the pharmacy and they said that they missed it and would fill the prescription. My father in the meantime has to take this medication. They then said they would deliver it as he was unable to drive. The delivery service said that they could not make it that day. My father then somehow managed to drive himself in the state that he was. They said the medication was being delivered and he should not have come. He explained that he was called and told the medication would not be delivered that day. It took them 6 HOURS to figure out that he was correct and had him WAIT the whole time. They could have caused my father his life. So what do I think of this Pharmacy.....lets just simply say that the staff throughout the day was grossly incompetent and for that my father suffered greatly. Unless you want to have an experience like his, I would find a better place to fill your prescription. I encourage the pharmacy to look into it and if the staff is honest then they will know that every word I wrote is true. My parents will never return to this pharmacy, but maybe this will prevent this from happening again to someone else.

Katty To

The cashier "Cindy" provided very bad services for the customer. She didn't try to solve the issue for the customer. She just want to waste the customer's time. It's a very bad shopping experience at this store.

Crystal Echlin

Few years ago when pretty much every Pharmacy in Ontario including Almonte, SmithsFalls and Carleton place Shopper's were dispensing methadone to patients. I asked the pharmacist in Perth if they were dispensing methadone now too. The response I was given was " No we don't , we don't want that element of people in our store". Need I say more,....... They do it now of course that's it's a big money maker but treat "that element" or patients with rude, judgemental and complete disrespect. Wouldnt spend my money there if it was the last building standing in Perth. Shame on u....

Aarza Monga

We visited the shoppers drug mart for the first time today at this location. I must say the customer service we received from “sally” was terrible. She was extremely rude and disrespectful. I dont know what’s wrong with her. Inmensely disappointed and never coming back for sure. It was a highly humiliating experience. I still can feel those negative vibes from her. You should actually get a life, learn to behave and show some sign of respect to the customers. The prime location actually deserves better employee unlike her!

If there was the ability to give a NEGATIVE score, this pharmacy would get one from me. Having had major back surgery, the hospital in Toronto faxed my prescriptions to the Parry Sound SDM so they would be ready after my drive home. After an agonizing two and a half hour drive we pulled into SDM to pick up my prescription. In less than 5 min, my wife came out of the store empty handed and then proceeded to tell me that the prescription had NOT been received. It is a good thing that my nurse in Toronto gave me a copy of the fax and the confirmation! It is also a good thing I could not get out of the car! The pharmacy staff did not even look to see if the fax had been received, they just told her it was not sent. The EPITOMY of CARELESSNESS! If not for a good nurse I would have been waiting even longer! I ended up getting my pain meds a full hour after I should have due to LAZINESS. The prescription was faxed around 2PM and as of 5:30 the staff had not thought to check their faxes? INEXCUSEABLE and all my business in now moving elsewhere.

morris bandre

The one star is for the Young man at the counter as you walk in, he's always freindy and inviting. This Saturday morning I was in the store and found the cashier in a foul mood looking unkept and dragging herself around sighing with indifference. For the most part it's something I'm use to in this store. I don't usually review negativity but today I'm making an exception as I'm sure there are many capable people in port Colborne who would love to work there. I'll be shopping across the street where people know the definition of dignity.

Attended the store December 12th at 12:15pm as I do regularly to buy quick grocery items. As a frequent shopper of this SDM location, I am very familiar with the store. As such, when ready to cash out I went to the self-checkout kiosks as there was no one in the line for self-checkouts. I punched in my item and from behind a customer in line for the traditional cashier lanes begun to publicly berate and yell at me for ‘cutting-in-line’; however, there was no one in the self-checkout lines. To not further cause disruption, and to not further be yelled at by a customer I politely said “I was unaware you were all in line for whichever came first” and moved to the end of the line. I confirmed with front-end staff before leaving on the status of the line, and whether there is supposed to be two separate lines, and they confirmed to me self-checkout and traditional cashier lane lines are to be separate. 1/5 stars for the lack of response from store staff whilst this customer made a scene and publicly berating me for something that I did not do, and for no store staff coming to rectify this issue – it is not my job as a customer to educate other customers on how they should be queuing and where.

Staff is rude I was yelled at from across the store for not wearing a mask I'm exempt the staff member embarrassed me to the point of me shopping there only when I have to she could have just asked me in private quietly the staff stands around talking half the time instead of working I sat at self checkout for nearly five minutes before someone stalking shelves had to break up their chat hour for someone to help me ... Pharmacy can never get my refills on time so I switched pharmacies the way people in this business act is gross and it represents management hire more staff that's trained in the accessibility for Ontarians with disabilities act ...

Ryan Eastman

This shoppers is the worst i have been to. The pharmacist (bigger guy with glasses) is always so rude! They have messed up my birth control twice now.. not sure if these people know what they are talking about. one time they gave me a generic brand and told me it was the exact same but decided to give me this one cause i didn't have coverage at the time. It was not at all the same and completely messed up my cycle. I didn't mind paying the extra for what i wanted they didn't give me that option.. that was last year. Then on Friday i went in for 3 refills and the lady told me my Dr. only gave me a script for 3 packs which was odd cause he always gives me a year supplies worth. So i didn't get the script i needed to start on Sunday. I went to my Dr. first thing Monday morning he showed me the script he gave me (the one shoppers already had) and it said 3 refills... so he gave me a new script and even circled the 3 refills part and laughed like wow... When i told the girl that my pills now got messed up because i was supposed to have 2 more refills and i didn't get them on time she was like well you have this script now right... that wasn't the point i wouldn't have had to get that script and i wouldn't be behind in pills if they did their job correctly. Not to mention when i was standing in line this gentlemen pulls some vitamins off the shelf and asked "are these chewable?" the pharmicist says "well they are gummies so ya!" in a rude tone like the customer was a dummie. Some people cant read completely especially older people or if they are picking it up for someone else they want to make sure its the right thing. No question is a stupid question especially when it is about medication.

Darrell Coote

Terrible customer service by pharmacist. While at the store today shopping I thought I would ask about getting my second dose of covid vaccine as I’m in week 8 since my first shot. The first clerk was polite and said I should ask the pharmacist, I received my first shot at shoppers in Kingston since that’s where we were living at the time and was told then no problem getting second shot at any shoppers, pharmacist in midland said no with no explanation when I asked again she just repeated the same answer over and over we don’t have any vaccines very rudely. I guess I’ll have to drive back to Kingston or just forget about second shot. Thanks Shoppers Drug Mart

Ayla Meagher

Joe - pharmacy assistant was so helpful, polite and nice!

Poor customer service at the pharmacy. The lack of effort to help me with my request was zero, just a "No, we can't do that." Wasn't even busy, didn't ask one question, pharmacist never got off the chair, not another person in the store to be seen. Will not ever step into that pharmacy again.

Worst pharmacy in Kenora. Very slow. They magically "haven't received" faxed in prescriptions on 2 occasions, even though the fax was confirmed "received" by the original sender / fax machine. Very frustrating when a person has driven a hour into town to get the prescription. Save yourself a lot of headaches, find another pharmacy.

A go to place for anything from grocery items to pharmaceuticals. The store almost always has a special on. They have good prices on most items they sell but not on everything. They have seasonal items that make them one the places to go in town if your looking for something unique, I know ! it's a drug store... but its true. Pharmacy personal are approachable and knowledgeable if you have any questions about on the shelf or prescription items.

Mr XFro

The script below is only a brief summary... June 16, 2021 (roughly) I received a prescription for Medicine A ... 4 units per day of a gel applied to the skin for absorption. It took a bit of coordination between patient, pharmacy and doctor to get it right - Med A, 4 units per day, 90 day supply. The pharmacy said that I should be using gel pouches, which turned out to be incorrect. Sept 16, 2021 I requested a refill of Medicine A. When I went to pick it up, I received a 14 day supply. When I questioned it, they said that this is what is on the system. I explained the adjustments that were made 3 months earlier .... please check your history. Sure enough, Med A was filled using an old script. Also, they did not have enough supply ... I had to return a couple of days later. Sept 22, 2021 One week after refilling Med A, and after reviewing my blood work, my doctor recommended 8 units of Med A per day. A new prescription was sent to the pharmacy. What I was given the previous week would only last for roughly 45 days, so I called the pharmacy to ask whether I should get more now to cover me for 90 days, or wait until I run out, then refill using the new prescription. They recommended that I wait until I run out. Nov 1, 2021 New request - We filled out forms for early refills of all of our medication....required for the 1st week of December ... we are heading south. I indicated to the front line person my concerns for Med A, dosage, and that it is never sufficiently stocked. She assured me that they have a person handling early refills for vacationers. December 1, 2021 (about a month later) I went to the pharmacy to get a status of our early vacation refills. The front line worker checked and said that we were next on the list. At this point I was just about out of Med A, still from my previous prescription .... I had lowered the dose from 8 to 6 per day while I awaited my refill. December 4, 2021 None of my wifes prescriptions were filled yet. Only 2 of my 3 prescriptions were filled. Med A was not. But what bothered me most was that Med A had a refill date of Dec 22nd. I was never dispensed Med A under the new higher dose prescription. When I called I was told that the vacation early refill person would be in later. When I asked when, she said that she did not know .... it was a volunteer that comes in when she can. December 4, 2021 later that day. I called the pharmacist. He (Richard) said the refill person (Emily) is not in until Monday. I explained my concern with Med A, the bogus refill date, and that I was about out of Med A. He said that he would address it Dec 5th. Keep in mind that up to this point, I tried to call many times for a quick status, but could not get through ..... everyone is just too busy! December 5, 2021 afternoon. I met with Richard ... he was extremely busy, but helpful. I indicated to him that I was now out of Med A. He "refilled" Med A, but there was not enough supply for 90 days. He said that he would order more. December 8, 2021. We are now into week 2 of December, and our vacation refills are still not ready. I was given a 90 day supply of Med A. My vacation request was for 100 days. I guess I will have to stretch out my doses of Med A again until I get home in March. December 9, 2021 My wife went in to check on our vacation early refill prescriptions, and they are still NOT READY. We started this process November 1st!! Only Emily knows what the status is and she's not in...REALLY!! No one else can help? We leave the morning of the 11th. My wife left details of what's outstanding. Later, gotta call from Emily. Everything is ready. Went to pick it up, not ready. Sat and waited for at least an hour... After these prescriptions, we will be going elsewhere. We don't want to, we have to. Most of the workers are nice, but too busy, poor processes, poor checks and balances.

Rocco DiSpirito

Horrible pharmacy service. Always an issue with pick up my RX. They never get it right. That one Asian guy has got to be the dumbest person he can never fill your RX properly. Scammers.

Ahmed Adimy

Great shopping place

Edith Fullerton

I have been a happy customer for over fifteen years but in the last few months have found the service in the pharmacy to be terrible! What has happened to this place? Prescriptions are not ready well after the scheduled time for pickup, and I’d been offered one several times that had already been picked up. Something has changed for the worse. I am thinking about switching to another local provider.

Nancy A

The last few times I have had to get prescription refills it has been a nightmare. I don't know what is happening. When Stephen or Susan are working, things run smoothly, but any other time it's ridiculous. I drop off a prescription and they tell me to come back in an hour and a half, so I do. Then they say it's not ready or they can't find anything on file. They need to get organized, too many new faces all the time at night and they have no organizational skills. Some are very rude as well. Why does the girl who takes your prescription always ask what is it for???

Dominick Linares

I'm still waiting on an actual decision, but I was given less than my prescribed dose of valium. I rely on it to live, I have chronic seizures and the lack of valium could result in a potentially fatal atonic seizure. Nor will they fax the extra meds to a closer location. They said they would provide me with "emergency meds" if I took a 2 and a half hour drive up there. I do not live in Orillia, I live in Hamilton. It was a one time script transfer as I was on vacation. I have never before been short on meds I am extremely fastidious about dosage. I'm not sure, but my guess would be that they believed this "stupid tourist" wouldn't miss her LIFE SAVING MEDICATION. Rude, unhelpful and negligent staff. NEW EDIT: the owner directed me to a number that was closed. Thanks for the lack of help, it's been awesome. Now I'm in complete withdrawal from my medication and I may have a seizure. UPDATE: Had 3 seizures Sunday night, 2 grande Mal which I've never had, due to withdrawal, and one atonic. My doc finally fixed this mess.

The pharmacy is so slow. Save yourself the aggravation and go somewhere else.

bil milar

Staff are usually friendly and helpful. Store is rarely crowded. If there is a lineup at the registers, go to the 3 self serve stations. Pick up your prescriptions during slower hours, before 9:30 am and after 7:30 pm? Thanks to ALL the staff who worked during COVID, keeping an essential service open. Kudos to pharmacist Abby, and I believe Laura/Lorna for helping facilitate a prescription on the weekend, that had run out.

Good to deal with.

Bruce Terri

I have been to the pharmacy here on a few occasions, and the service has been terrible each and every time. The people are grumpy, often confused about simple medication request, and the service has been horrible. Always a long wait. As an update, September 4th, went in to get a simple medication fill, and they told me the wait was 45 minutes to an hour at 4:30 PM . Someone nearby told me I should go to the Pharmasave a few blocks away, and with setting up my file and getting the meds, was in and out in 15 minutes. People there were extremely friendly and helpful.

This woman went above and beyond and I left feeling a lot more okay in my own skin. THANK YOU!

joe mama

Hands Down the Rudest Staff & slowest Service call in your script they tell u its ready go up half hour after i call to get it and still have over a 45 min wait and still didnt even leave with what i went in for

Erika Smith

Seven customers lined up to pay cash only one cashier, and someone if you are using debit or credit I can help you here no one wanted that so open another cash right away not 5 minutes later

Bev Keats

Have been going to this shoppers for years its getting really bad went today no one there to sanitize carts no papertowel to do it your self nothing also one cashier she did the best she could all about profit no customer service or protection

Sharon Marshall

So disappointed today with shoppers, I've never had a bad experience at this location before. I came in the store just before closing and was told very rudely that they were closing. I asked if I could quickly grab what I was looking for. The item I was looking for was moved, I asked for some help I did get some help but the clerks were a little impatient, I though of one more item I needed and veered to find it until the supervisor made a rude announcement the pay for my items because they were closing. Never ever have I been treated like that anywhere. Your Supervisor needs a little patience when ushering customers out the door. I usually buy all my cosmetics there but from now on I will be shopping elsewhere.

Stafford & Teresa McCartney

Trying to refill a simple prescription today I have been on hold for over an hour - same thing last week caused me to drive into town to finally renew it. No-one answering the pharmacy, customer service or management phones. As Shoppers Drug Mart is owned by the Loblaw Company could you please supply a number I can call in order to discuss with them as reviews of the store suggest I am not alone in finding the service severely lacking.

Ruth Peirson

Have always received excellent service from this location as well as the Canada Post

Rose Howe

Lui Wang

Why is every review on here the same and yet the store goes nothing about it?! The staff at this pharmacy are despicable. So impatient and rude. Beyond rude. Do not shop here or get your meds filled here if you want to be treated decently. How sad is that… you will be served with hostility and just utter disrespect if you happen to stop at this pharmacy. Owner. FIRE THE PHARMACIST ASAP!! She’s the worst!!!!!!!!!!! Do not go here!!!!!!

Shopper's is a delightful combination of the everyday and the deluxe. You might be trudging inside for Kleenex and Tums but the Cosmetic Counter lady greets you like a celebrity! Designer fragrances bring back the frisson of department stores from days gone by. The staff is caring and friendly which means a great deal during Christmas in the Age of Covid. The Post Office serves the customers with true grace.

Elizabeth Allan

Awful place full of incompetent pharmacists who constantly “lose” prescriptions

Betty Barnes

I am a senior and visited your Fort Eire store today. I had 5 items to pick up and tried to get a basket to put them in. I could not separate the baskets as they were jammed together. I then went to get a cart. No problem getting a cart but there was nothing available to use as a disinfectant or wipes to wipe these carts down. I realize these are trying times but you are open to provide necessary services and I would expect as a pharmacy you would better protect your customers. Maybe you should visit Sobies to see how it is done.

Chris Diane Monteith

Bought a big screen TV from this place in late November as a Christmas gift. It failed after 2 weeks and the store would do nothing to help me. I have two options, throw it out or spend several hundred dollars shipping it to the manufacturer for repairs. Response from Shoppers ‘past 30 days - not our problem’! Should have known better than to buy here since this store generally offers very poor service but the TV seemed to be a good deal. But we live and learn - a sub-standard business selling sub-standard merchandise!

laura Allen

Most of the staff is great, but some are just miserable like they hate their jobs. The pharmacy well that’s just another story too long for review can’t seem to ever have prescriptions ready on time and very rude

MIKE MISCHITELLE

Please be aware the service at this pharmacy is terrible. Run don't walk away ! Whoever is in charge of faxing prescriptions in to the doctors office needs some training. Requested my meds 1 week in advance, pharmacy said they will fax them in. Checked in a week and they said they need to be faxed in ? This was on a Friday morning. Guess it got missed and I will fax it right in I was told. Checked with my doctors office later that day and they hadn't received yet? more calls, waiting, waiting. Drove 1/2hr into town on Sunday, waited in line spoke to the pharmacist (M) and he told me it wasn't scheduled until Monday? But, I could pick up in 1 hour if I needed. So I agreed to return in an hour,,, needless to say still no medication . I was pulled aside by the lady who said she faxed in my request and hadn't received a response as it turned out My doctors office received the fax after hours on the Friday). needless to say i would not recommend this pharmacy it is very poorly managed.

Smitty

I wanted to thank one of the employees, Ethan. I believe he is one of the managers . I purchased something from the electronic section and it was incorrect. He took time to hear me and do the best he could in the situation. I also want to mention that the woman that assisted me with the purchase was lovely and both cashiers that assisted were absolute dolls! I genuinely appreciate how lovely you all were.

Maciek Wegrzyniak

Visit this morning Friday to pick up wife prescription ordered on Monday and fallow up phone to confirm on Wednesday. When as for it was told it wasn't ordered yet "we are very busy and we missed the order , will be ordered today for pickup on Monday." Here I'm taking about continues medication. Any of my questions for the reason was answer by farmacyst " what you want me to do" very unprofessional . Finally I was told if I don't want to wait till Monday I can call others pharmacy's . The medication is special order and can't be possible to get any where else whit out orderings first. Farmacyst answer " what you want me to do" Any way from now on I will stay away from this place.!!!!!!!? There are lots of small pharmacy's in Perth so don't be stacked with Perth Shoppers Drogmart.!!!!!? I won't go there again.!!!!!!

Ed Matthews

Courteous front staff & now self checkouts!

Excellent Shoppers Drugmart. The only thing that would make it perfect would top be 24 hours. But maybe people here wouldn't use that. I don't know. I'm just kind of used to having a 24 hour Shoppers. Really great staff and a well managed store.

Roger Pinut

The floors were not mopped at the store entrance, or cleaned around the store. I found multiple expired items, and aisles were messy.

Cait Solheim

The Shoppers on Eastside and South 40 plaza have much friendlier staff.

clever clever

joeblow

I went to the pharmacy today and man alive were the employees rude and condescending!!! I thought it was just me but I saw them rude to like 5 people while I was waiting!!! I’d give zero stars but that isn’t an option. One things for sure I will never use the pharmacy again taking my business somewhere else!!!!

jennifer lamb

Most of the staff just stands around talking to each other being a woman on her time of the month every time I go there theres never hardly any tampons stocked on the shelf and when you ask someone to see if theres any in the back they never go and check for you

Ben Keer

Excellent knowledgeable staff, polite, helpful and very professional. The Pharmacy team takes time to make sure one understands the medication and clearly answers all questions. All staff are very considerate of the older customers and take time to listen to their needs and then provide helpful suggestions. Highly recommended.

Samuel

Pretty much has everything you need in a drugstore that is comparable to a big city SDM

Sophie Strom

I wish I could rate this pharmacy a 0. Brutal pharmacy staff. So incompetent they can’t even count. Don’t bother calling, they are so rude you’ll end up hanging up, even if you’re like myself and the most pleasant person in the world. I was shocked by the rudeness and lack of Customer service. Whoever owns this pharmacy should fire all the staff working on June 27 2021. They deserve to be jobless.

semone gouthro

Staff was great and pharmist went over and beyond for me excellent service..

MIke Johnstone

Very poorly organized. Called a day before and was told my prescription was being filled right away. Came in next day and had to wait for them to refill it again because they lost my prescription. Very frustrating.

Ward Smirh

Joel Lees

The pharmacy was extremely quick and friendly even though I arrive fairly close to closing time.

Kessia Wright

I like it. Sometimes getting meds is slow, but usually when that happens, it is because there is a new pharmacist. The prices are often higher than Wal-Mart, but they often have good sales and they have points. The staff are friendly and try to remember everyone's name.

Call Jamie Painting&Drywall Burke

We are new to the area from Calgary. Today will be my last visit here. We will buy our prescriptions elsewhere. The main reason is my dealing with the front staff lady. Black curly hair and glasses. She was ignorant. I was standing there. She knew I was there. No big deal as I seen she was not doing much. Says I’ll be with you soon. So I turned back and was going to look at some stuff 10 feet away on the shelf. She raise her voice a bit and says no stand here. Then goes on to ask me if I have anything else I need to do. I said no. She said why don’t you go for lunch. This will be a hour. They did not even look really busy. Lots of staff. Then asks why my name on my coat had a M missing in my first name. Wanted an explanation. Overall I found her very displeasing and non accommodating. You are the first point of contact at the pharmacy desk. Be better! Another note my wife had called a few days back to see if we could get a prescription sent to St John’s where I was working. 6 times until she reached someone. In this day and age with all of our retail choices, stores should treat spending customers with kindness and respect. It’s been 2 hours and I’m still bothered. I wanted to share this experience.

Lori-Anne Carr

Poor customer service in the pharmacy. Some of the pharmacy staff are quite rude over the phone and their new delivery policy makes no sense. When they call to tell you a prescription is ready, they don't even let you confirm you are the person they are looking for. They talk over you as if they are a machine reading a script. If you manage to get them to hear you, they just say "yes, as I was saying", and repeat the script in an annoyed tone. If someone else had answered or if it was a wrong number, they would have had my name, medications, etc. If you do not answer your phone when they call or call back before 4 that same day; even if it is shortly after 4 when you call back, they will not deliver your medication because they are "too busy and have too many other prescriptions to deliver". Instead you must find a way to get it yourself the next day. This is unreasonable for a disabled person without transportation, and chastising customers for it and their inability to pick up is extremely rude. I have been getting my prescriptions at this Shoppers location for almost 20 years and have only been experiencing this type of treatment for a couple of months now. The pharmacy staff used to be friendly and helpful, now they seem to hate their jobs. I guess will be looking to transfer my prescriptions elsewhere.

Daniel E King

Great people and a friendly environment

Jennifer Stalker

went into the shoppers and stopped at the pharmacy to ask where to find a product. Person standing in front of me, looked at me then turned and walked away, no can I help you or someone will be with you. Another person in the pharmacy quickly came over and helped me find my product. one rude person and one very helpful person.

Derek Stefanovsky

The GOOD: The self-checkouts are great here. I'm not sure why people are complaining about long lines. Just use the self-checkouts -- they are usually open and you can be outta there in no time. Service at the pharmacy is exceptional when the seasoned staff are working. The NOT SO GOOD: The phones are still horrible. Please, please, please, please, please have someone just answer the phone. Your online and automated refill programs are less than perfect, and people need to have a way to access a live person PROMPTLY. Prompt is NOT: (1) a dropped call; or (2) 25min; or (3) 15min; or (4) 5min. Prompt IS: the phone rings and you pickup in less than 4 rings. More phones than people answering? --> get more people. How about an overflow contact centre for all Shoppers Drug Mart stores (if money is a problem?). Endless loops of useless on-hold messaging that only marketing departments can dream up does not make customers happier. I often see many people working behind the counter. But everyone avoids serving the customers at the cash like the plague. Staff bunched up at the far end chatting away, giggling, and laughing.... ....all the while, customers are lined up, either not being served at all, or being served by one lonely, stressed out cashier. Priorities people? Are you REALLY doing work that needs to be done right away? ...or do you just want to do work that doesn't have to involve interacting with customers face-to-face? Thanks for listening.

Han Shi

Bev. Szymusiak

I do not understand why it takes 2 days to fill a script and then when you get there you still have to wait. I have called it in myself they tell you the time to pick it up and when I get there still have to wait. I worked for shoppers for 24 yrs. and find this just awful. Will definitely be having my scripts transferred to another pharmacy. Shoppers is very expensive, am a senior and only go in there on senior days anymore.

Bradley VonHighway

One of them got rude at me over the phone because they sent out the delivery person to my house (without my knowledge) and I wasn't around to answer the door, this would happen a lot even after I told them not to send the delivery person to my house. Too bad there's only one shoppers in Fort Erie.

Stephanie Ryan

Mamaj Swanson

the pharmacy at this place is so unprofessional!!! I can’t believe the true disregard for the health and well-being of my loved one who is receiving palliative care. the wait times are outrageous…the customer service is lower then POOR. No medication, always blaming other agencies and doctors, no fax came in, whoever is suppose to be entering stuff into the system there is pretty slow apparently. No compassion is shown to people who are dying and need pain management care. Very willing to hand out methadone treatment with fist pumps from the pharmacist and how’s it going pleasantries …but an elderly person with stage 4 cancer has to wait days for pain management medication. Horrible ???? This isn’t just one time…this is every time experience to get refills of her any of her medication there is always an issue.

Ken Horn

Very rude pharmacy. !!

Darren Jones

We are very disappointed with the staff and poor standards at this pharmacy. We order 3 prescriptions and get one with no updates about the other meds ever. It seems to be run by teens and assistants who care more about socializing than helping their customers. It's a very scary thought to know that we are entrusting our lives to people who have received no formal training and are not qualified for the job. We're very tired of this nonsense and their below standard services. Does anyone care here besides the front checkout staff?

Graymalkin Cat

Go somewhere else. First the woman on the phone didn't have time to write down the bottle size I wanted my medications in so they were all wrong. I should have checked before I left the store but of course they were all packaged and there was a line-up behind me. Then when asking about a vitamin I was told that there were many and to pick what I wanted because she was too busy. Nice to get free advice after just spending a thousand dollars. They only want your money, go somewhere else.

Catharine Gastmeier

Shoppers are not asking clients or staff to wear masks. It was impossible to social distance. Carts were not being sanitized. I called after a visit a month ago, all the same issues. Now, with people coming up from other areas, the risks for a second round of covid19 increase. The vets office where I take my dog insist humans wear masks. You line up outside the bank, the licensing serves office, clearly marked distancing in both cases I am disappointed that a business that should be setting the standard, where vulnerable people go for med's is not anywhere near up to standard.

I am very disappointed with shoppers drug Mart this is the third time they have not filled my prescription I’ve been running out of meds you should get your you know what together or I’ll take my business somewhere else and I’ve been with shoppers for five years now very disappointing.

Stephen Hazlewood

I really do not know why I go to Shoppers Drug Mart in Fort Erie, some of the staff there are so rude. I went there today with my daughter to get a prescription . I went with my daughter because she was diagnosed with a mild intellectual disability so she is not very good around people. We were lined up just outside the door and when it got to our turn to go in the lady manning the door was not very nice about the fact two of us were going in. This is not the first time I have been spoken to in a harsh tone, I think I am going to start going somewhere else for my drugs in future.

Freddie West

I've never been to Nelson Shoppers Drug mart but I've always gotten good service from their stores in other cities. However this one in Nelson was not a friendly place to go. I had a few items to pay for as I was leaving so I naturally stopped at the tills by the door where I entered. I was about to pay & the attendant asked me if I needed a prescription. I said "no" & that I only needed to pay for the things I had in my hands. He acted offended like I'd disrespected him for even approaching his till. He said with a rude attitude that I needed to pay at the other tills where there was people waiting to help me -- his attitude suggesting it was an offense to bother him for anything but a prescription. Despite his rudeness I thanked him & headed for the "other tills" where there were NO other people. The "other" tills were empty with no other employees in sight & nobody to ask further assistance from except the guy who had just told me to get someone at the other tills attend to me. There were no people lined up for prescriptions, there was only two other customers in the store & they were busy looking for stuff. Finding nobody to assist me at the tills I was sent to -- I put all my items back on the shelves where I got them & quietly left as I did not want to experience any further humiliation. Normally I'd have forgotten the offended pharmacist by now but his rudeness set up an unnecessary situation where my fingers are in pain right now that would not have been a problem were I able to cover them with the band aides I tried to buy -- but was unable to find someone to take my money. I hope this note may help this store to develop a better customer service program. They won't see me or my business again but perhaps they'll be able to teach their staff how to be decent to customers even if they are not there for the big ticket items that day. They will never get to find out just how much stuff I buy. I've lived in this area for slightly less than a month & one visit from me was handled so badly it secured for "Shoppers Drug Mart" a future without any of my business. Well done! It's important for me not to waste a 45 minute drive to Nelson on businesses that are so prosperous they can afford not to care about customers.

Ive been coming here for 3 years. Since Manpreet left and a new owner took over the customer service and efficiency of the staff has gone into the toilet! I pick up in the evenings. The men are surley, the women are incompetent. There's no communication between the morning staff and the evening staff. Seriously considering switching to another pharmacy.

Very slow and rude pharmacy workers who are pushy and rude to me because I was in a few minutes late but the store was still open for business and they were madd at me for making them work for 2miniutes extra.Very unpleasant experience and I don't think I will ever be going back. Because of this. And they are just slow AF anyway.

Transient Zultar

If they're going to force me to use self checkout then I'm not going back.

Service I got at beauty counter was not the best. I came to return an item that was broke and the lady wasn’t super helpful and couldn’t complete my return. However the other cashier did do it fast.

Britannia Gammond

Was in and out quickly, staff were very friendly and helpful

Anita Stanich

This pharmacy is not managed well at all. Prescriptions are never ready even when your doctor sends it in the day before. Or they have trouble finding it. Just seems very disorganized. I've been with this pharmacy for 30 years and it was NEVER like this when Mike ran the department.

Jose-Anne Leclair

very unimpressed. went to fill a prescription today. was told it would take 1/2h, took over 1h 5min. after 35min I was told it would be 1 min longer and they hadn't even started mixing it yet. I was in a rush and would have appreciated more honesty than that. when it was ready there was no paperwork included that usually explains what the medication is for and side effects etc... neither the pharmacist nor the pharmacy assistant took any bit of time to explain the medication, how often to take it, etc... very disappointing and lacking in customer service.

Jenell Hoare

Have great prices and great staff

Bill W

We need to find somewhere else to get our prescriptions. Shoppers messed up on my meds again. Gave me a three month supply instead of one. It's $167.00. I've asked three times now for only one month at a time. The lady was rude. And then tells me I can wait 20 minutes for them to fix it. I just got the three months and I will switch to another pharmacy

I came in 2 weeks ago and ordered a box of insulin needles. Went in today of course pharmacy didn't order them and they didn't even care that i was upset. I am pulling my prescriptions.

cam mac

went to see my doctor on a Monday, he unfortunately was on holiday. My high blood pressure pills needed refill. So as usual shoppers drug mart was my go to place. have been a client of theirs for years. In the past when requiring a short refill to get me by until I can see my own doctor, there has been no problem. On this day the young women behind the refill desk wanted nothing to do with assisting me, then projecting her attitude toward the pharmacist, who then promptly rejected my refill, which had run out that day. If they don't want to be in the business of assisting the public they should look for work else where, I have since moved my business and will be recommending others to do the same.

Terry Desroches

My Mom was being released from hospital , and doctor had her prescription faxed in. An hour later, I called to be sure they received the fax, and they said they had. They told me it would definitely be ready in another two hours (giving them a total of three hours to process). During Covid19, I had to book a time at the hospital to pick up my Mom, so I gave myself a thirty minute window. When I got there, I waited in line for twenty minutes (which is expected during Covid19) only to be told " it's not ready yet...pharmacist still has to check it". I stood in that store, and waited another hour for them to finish, telling me every so often "another fifteen minutes, it will be ready". Needless to say, I was late to pick up my Mom, who just wanted to get out of hospital and go home. I wish I could say this is a "one time thing", but the same type of delay has happened at least two other times before. I have never been as disappointed in a business as I am with the Midland location of Shoppers Drug Mart. These problems never happened when Mike Tolmie owned the store.

Dimitrios Nikolaou

Overall a very well run store The store was clean and well stocked Service is friendly COVID protocol in place however does not seem to be followed so some slight reinforcement would help

Matthew Parkhill

It’s now hard to believe this Parry Sound Shoppers care about customers. They get multiple one star ratings and the response is “it’s not the experience we want our customers to have” and yet nothing changes. Don’t bother phoning. They don’t answer or it’s busy. I’ve been there to pick up my diabetic supplies and meds and they weren’t ready when given days to prepare, gave me needles not covered on my insurance and wanted me to pay for them when they had the needles covered under my insurance. I now use the independent in town and they are marvellous. The Westons should be ashamed. I doubt they are.

Horrible. Just horrible. The store is good, the pharmacy is a complete waste of time. Try to charge you for things that are covered. Can not prepare a prescription with 2 weeks notice. Staff give you attitude when they screw up (fyi...they screw up every time!) Go ANYWHERE ELSE.

Great staff! Great service!

I went on May 14th specifically for a new moisturizer, and something for wrinkles and a new foundation that didn't make my wrinkles stand out even more, I guess I hit that age. Yay. Kelsey, in the cosmetic section was extremely helpful, she asked good questions and showed me several products that were what I was wanting or if it wasn't exactly what I wanted, then she had a 2nd option for me also. She knew the products. Which is awesome because there are so many out there now, I find it hard to choose sometimes. All in all, a very pleasant experience. Thank you Kelsey.

Duarte Borges

The people there do there job and that's it

The pharmacy gave my elderly mom someone else's prescription. Very similar name but they didn't verify the address or anything. Had this been someone who highly depending on their prescription to stay alive, this could have costed someone their life. Thankfully this wasn't her case but they made a massive mistake and we paid for someone else's prescription. When we went to have them fax over the correct prescription to another shoppers 1.5 hours away as we were only visiting Orillia, we waited for 4 hours and neither us or the other shoppers could get ahold of them by phone or fax. Spent multiple times waiting for over 20 minutes just for someone to pick up the phone - which never happened. Again, if this was a different situation, this could have cost someone their life.

Candace English

I am an asthmatic. I ran out of my Ventolin inhaler (smoke filled air) and this was the only pharmacy open. I asked the pharmacist to please give me an inhaler and I would send my script over in the morning. She refused to do this and treated me horribly. I was clear and concise, maintained professionalism and even ended the conversation with a "Thank you". I find it even more dispicable that my review was deleted from this website.

I love shoppers drug mart in Nelson, but today for the first time I had a poor experience while trying to purchase a over the counter pain medication for a family member. When asking if I could purchase them from the Pharmacy till I was told to go to the front till, despite it being very slow in the store no customer at the tills. I don't think the cashier can answer my questions, I went to the till as directed but was not happy I don't think I'll shop go in when the new pharmacy lady is working I suppose I'm spoiled by the usual service from the existing staff.

Freya Sweet

Its like the phones just off the hook lol its fine i guess i dont need my meds..............

It was the worst service from a Pharmacy I've ever experienced. I brought my prescription in yesterday said of was out on one of them and they said they were going to rush the order and would call yesterday when to pick up. By 8pm no one has called so I did and the woman who answered said they were too busy so would have it ready for pick up tomorrow morning first thing. I ho in the afternoon thinking fir sure must be ready but was astonished to find out it never was filled and was told it wasn't to be ready till late today. Totally waste of my time and it will be last prescription I will get there.

When they did not have enough stock, they did not tell me there was an owing balance. I drove out to work and they would not honour the owing balance. They short changed my drug but charged the full price.

This store I personally didn't care for. I went in to get a prescription filled and I was told to come back the next day and pick it up. When I went there the next day, not only was it not ready but they hadn't even started it. So I will switch drug stores.

This is the WORST Shopper's Drug Mart I have ever been inside. The pharmacy staff are unprofessional. They will only refax my doctor after 1o days if the doctor does not respond. When speaking with my doctor she said she never received a fax from them and was concerned over the 10 day wait to refax.

Worst customer service ever,they had 1 till open with 3 cashiers trying to solve 1 customers problem. Always a line with only 1 till open and several employees walking aimlessly around.

COSMETIC DEPT: Extremely poor customer service and management. Manager was unfriendly, unkempt, aggressively non-helpful in attitude and neglectful of front counter (due to unpacking stock in 1st aisle, without frequently checking for waiting customers). After being called to department counter via phone, refused service to exchange w/o receipt for store credit of SEALED UNUSED UNOPENED products, that are carried within store. Products ie: "Degree" Deodourant and "Rimmel" Brow Filler, "Nivea" Essential Lip Balm, "Lancome" eye make up remover, and "DUO" false lash glue. Will not be returning to this local department for any future purchases, will choose a kingston location, due to inconsistent customer service standards (per employee) would not recommend shopping here if in need of assistance from a sales associate or Suzi, the manager of cosmetics. Her Extremely poor attitude in aiding shoppers was discouraging, Manager is also highly inattentive to customer service, and overall monitoring of department.

So frustrated, store owner Ana Lees unapologetic, 3 weeks to get monthly medical supplies, put you on hold and forget about you, no advance phone call of delivery, not at home, product goes back to store and nobody calls you to follow up, told my phone was out of service, wrong product ordered - have to wait another 3 weeks UNBELIEVABLE!!! Switching to REXALL, they can have product in store within 2 days of request and free delivery, talking with them on the phone, they asked if it would be okay to put me on hold - at last - some courtesy!

I am standing at the pharmacy at 10:05 having shown up at 9:58, GF had a prescription called in and they stayed late to fill it even after I said if it wasn't ready I'd come back the next day. Can't say enough about the amazing service and kindness by the pharmacist tonight. Was Newcastle location 5/1/20. Thank you so much!!!

It's always at least a half an hour wait which is frustrating when your sick and your doctor tells you to take your antibiotics right away. Most other pharmacies I've been too when they are busy is at most a 15 min wait. They need to improve the wait times to get your prescription as people medically need their prescriptions.

Daytime customer service is a nightmare at the pharmacy cash and pick up counter. You either stand there forever waiting for a cashier to help you or you get a rude and abrasive clerk. The evening clerks give better service but my kids need me at home by then. It's so true. Forget about trying to phone ahead. You either never get through or you are put on hold forever until you give up and just hang up. Shoppers, we need more stores in town so that we can go elsewhere.

Small, but well stocked little location. The pharmacy staff are very friendly and helpful. This location has a Canada Post outlet.

pharmact big let down since new owner. everymonth there is a problem, cancelled one of my meds for no reason , meds that have been taking for years, without Dr. o.k. or even checking with me or anything. will be changing pharmacy, had enough of having deal with withouth them adding more stress to my life. very dissapointed and someone needs to check up on them to find what the problem is there right now.

I love the staff at the fort erie location they are always super friendly, I would love to give a higher rating over all but unffortunatly their prices are outrageous, it's pretty bad when a convenient store is cheaper the them most the time

Twice the lady at the make up section was not very pleasant, in fact rude. She does not even make eye contact or acknowledge your presence. Someone with this character should definitely work in this profession!!!

Debbie Fretz

I just had surgery in Kenora and had to get an escort to drive me home. After release it had to pick up meds. The doctor wrote over the counter recommendations. But the pharmacist charged me an additional $12 for an $8 bottle of Ibupropen and an additional $12 for an $11 bottle of extra strength Tylenol. Talked to pharmacist and he said too bad we fill them quick. He said they ask if you have coverage but I wasnt even conscious enough to enter store and the driver sure didnt know. Watch this Pharmacy as if you can get it over the counter they won't advise you like other pharmacies. This one just wants your money.

Great

Gaston Gaudet

Store often does not honor the advertised items in their flyers. - Cream 2 for $3 in flyer but $3.09 on the shelf ( staff : - sorry error in printing - no sale bacon anywhere in sight in the morning of the first day of the sale Wife has to get stuff but I will wait until Loblaws and Shoppers develop an honesty streek.

Worst pharmacy ever. Not organized, lots of mistakes. They have a hard time listening and getting things straight. Makes for an awful visit. Some of the staff are incompetent. Sorry for such a bad review, but it's the truth! Just disappointing ☹️

I cannot get anyone to answer the pharmacy phone for 3 days now. Idk what is going on there, but very frustrating! This was my favorite store to go to.

Secret Shopper

Very quick pharmacy service, I waited less than 5 minutes for my prescription. Very friendly and helpful staff both at the pharmacy and at the front cash registers, as well as on the floor.

Glenda Berens
