Reviews of Lawtons Drugs Gladstone (Pharmacy)

Corey Campbell-Jones

It's a lawtons so you get what you get, but it's pretty ridiculous that the pharmacy closes at 6pm on Sundays when other pharmacies are open until 10pm. I'm left waiting an extra day to refill a prescription that I urgently need because I am in pain, but couldn't refill because I was at work. I will be filling all of my prescriptions at shoppers after today. Womp womp.

It's Lawtons. It's the exact same as all other Lawtons.

Carli, on the front cash is quite a rude young lady. As a senior, with a walker, I had to pick up a few essential items this afternoon and after payment, she just leaves my items on the counter and doesn't even place them in the bag as per requested. She just glared at me like I had several heads. What a complacent staff member. Zero customer service, and repulsive behavior.

I have been coming to this location for about 20 years. I found out my two medication bottles got loosened in my purse and got water damaged. So I came to refill and I was told to pay another $67 dollars coz my plan would not pay for it. I called my GP office n explained what happened. I was told to make a new appointment with my doctor n asked pharmacy to give me some till then as courtesy. So I went downstairs to pharmacy n explained. A pharmacist says " We decided wether or not it is courtesy not by your doctor. " It sounded so rude to me. Anyhow, .today I saw my doctor and got a new prescription with different prescription number. When I came back to pick up my medication, I saw I was still charged for $53.61. well...better than$67. Regardless of having a new prescription number, they gave me one with medication as an old prescription again. Because they already filled it last week. I went back in and said I want my prescription back. A pharmacist said we already put it in the computer so we can not give you back. ???????????????? I was so upset n hard a headache. My blood pressure indicates 167/89. They didn't care, of course It is not like narcotics. It is my thyroid hormone n anti anxiety meds for about 20 years everyday. They know my medication butn my condition but their lack of cooperation frustrated me so much. They have no empathy. They have a hostage of my prescription order for a other 6 months worth !!!! How dare them ! If I were their employer, I would give them a sensitive training. Their cold attitude and no empathy made me so disgusted!!! Good for them. Just enjoy my money.

This store sets a standard of excellence through showing compassion and respecting each and every customer. No request or question goes unheard. The pharmacy staff is professional and knowledgeable and will always take the time to respond to questions or clarify information. They will go out of their way to accommodate special circumstances. The atmosphere in the store is positive and the staff are ready and willing to help. I do wish the Home Healthcare Department was still in operation.. All of the HHC dept. are outside of town, hard to reach if you don't have a car, and lack that "personal " touch. Having the store in the city ( and I believe it was the only one) did bring a personal touch, allowed the client to order and pick up products, was so helpful for the Senior population who needed assistance or couldn't travel far and as these medical and healthcare issues are often "delicate' and personal" to the individual. I would certainly use it! I believe that sometimes we are quick to complain and slow to acknowledge the positive people or experiences we encounter. Well done and thank you to the Gladstone Lawton's staff!!

I usually never have a bad experience here. But today while upstairs at the doctor's office with my husband and son, my son had gone through his diaper. It was running everywhere and the office was too busy to lend us an office to change him. So o ran downstairs hoping for a staff bathroom or staff break room or somewhere I could change him quickly. I asked a woman working who was passing by and before I could even finish my sentence she raised her voice to me and told me to go across the street. At this point I have feces all over my shirt and myself. She left me stunned there and I had no choice but to go across the street. If I owned a car I would have done it in my own car, but we don't. As a new mother I feel like I wasn't asking for a lot. Just a little bit of help with this overwhelming situation but I barely was even spoken to as a human being. I realize they likely are asked all the time, but maybe treat people like human's. Especially when they are on the verge of tears and are covered in human waste with a screaming baby. I always get my prescriptions filled here but I will be taking them elsewhere from now on.

Great staff which make it worthwhile. Post Office another story, They are pretty gruff and disrespectful of other people's packages.

It's a generally good store. Always clean and organized. You can find most things cheaper at Shoppers.

I had splashed cleaning chemicals in my eye today at a clients home and i was in the neighbourhood so i went to my doctors office located above lawtons. They refused to help with basic first aid and told me to go to the hospital. Desperate for help at this point i went into lawtons pharmacy down stairs, I asked if they had a eye flushing station, the staff quickly came to my aid. They brought me to the back room of the store where they had helped me flush my eye out. The staff stayed with me until i was better with many workers coming to check on me. They even offered advice on what to do next when i left. The staff at this store went above and beyond to help me considering my own doctors office wouldn't even help. This is not the first time the staff has impressed me in this store. They are always very kind and willing to help in any way.

Good service

Fantastic store, which excellent staff. The postal counter can be a trip, depending on who happens to be working (the supervisor is...something), but, if you can avoid that, it's a great place.

Alain Girard

Great location, speedy and friendly service

Employee was friendly

This pharmacy is the only one in the city I’ve been to who gives me a hassle about my birth control. Prescriptions do expire every year but pharmacists in Nova Scotia can renew birth control prescriptions, but this one won’t and told me to “get permission” from my doctor.

Most of the staff are very rude. The older ones anyway. The young ones are great but never stay and I do not blame them! The older British lady is also an exception. The post office staff are the worst. They are condescending and sarcastic especially the blonde lady that is there most of the time. One of them even made fun of a lady after she left. Every time I shop there they make me feel like a criminal; that I will shoplift even though I have been getting all my drugs here for 15 years. The pharmacy staff are great, but I am going to switch pharmacies. It is actually stressful going in there and dealing with the rudeness of the other staff.

Great sales on nail polish
