Love this CVS!! They have a minute clinic, tons is staff and always stocked up with snacks, medicine (duh) and cosmetics! They also keep the inside nice and clean! This is a fairly large CVS! Parking is great and so is the drive through!

This pharmacy survives merely on location. Poor customer service, ineffective communication and the pharmacists/interns lack accountability and credibility.

This pharmacy is literally the worst. Long wait times, and when you do get to the window they don’t have what they confirmed via text was ready for pickup. This has happened a few times to me. Also even though I’ve told them several times that I can’t have a generic, my doctor wrote it on the script, they keep filling the generic instead of the name brand. I asked for a note in my info, whatever, to keep it straight but every single time I go to get this name brand drug they fill the generic. Totally incompetent, high turnover, just awful. I’m moving.

Predatory towing is in full force at this CVS. I highly recommend using Walgreens or a different CVS. While purchasing a product here, a representative of their towing company asked if anyone in the store owns the (a description of my car). I confirmed it's mine. After completing the purchase, I walked across the street to pick up a pizza. I returned and saw CVS's towing company towing my car, 12 minutes after I had been in CVS. Despite being a paying customer, the tow company contract allows them free rein to tow. This cost me $150 (they insisted cash- only which also seems shady but I needed my car). I see other comments here where the customer's car is towed while in the back of the store or using the bathroom where they couldn't hear the towing agent ask. I completely understand the CVS doesn't want the lot being used by people on South Howard bar-hopping for hours. But towing after less than 15 minutes when they knew firsthand that I'm a CVS customer is predatory towing. Save yourself the pain and exorbitant costs of their predatory towing - go elsewhere.

I found the supervising pharmacist to be rude and condescending. He argued with me about a way to bill my insulin and told me I was wrong. I offered to give him the name a number if a pharmacist who knew how to bill this through Medicare. He told me “I don’t need somebody telling me how to Bill”. He Handed me My Prescription and told me to take it to Walgreens. I did so and found a very professional pharmacist who took My persecution and told me she was unfamiliar with the billing I was talking about but would take the name of the person I had offered to the CVS Napoleon. I was call the next day that my meds were ready and there was no co-pay. When I approached the CVS store with this I was pretty much brushed aside. Manager and pharmacist would not meet me. Manager stayed in his office and pharmacist left the building.

I've been a CVS customer for decades. I parked in there lot to go get some food, my car was towed. The sign said CVS customers only I've been a CVS customer my whole life until yesterday. I was curious to see who called in to tow my car. I inquired with the manager inside, who called to have my car towed. He fed me a life or BS but in his explanation "he mentioned they watch you from the bush like native Americans waiting to strike" which is indeed racially insensitive. If CVS would spend more time hiring quality employees instead of turning their parking lots into legalized crime they probably wouldn't get so many bad reviews. I will be contacting corporate Monday.

This CVS need to do better and hire employees who are excited about coming to work and doing their job. If you're having a bad day, simply stay at home and do the community a favor. Christian the employees there is big and lazy! A person say hello he just stare, and look at you crazy. I get it! I like to shop at establishments with friendly employees, not somewhere wee the employees look sad and don't want to be there. It's always him!!! I will NEVER SHOP AT THIS LOCATION AGAIN..

The manager on duty was very helpful in assisting me with coupons that were not working properly. Thank you! The pharmacist was also very nice and helpful as well.

I was on the phone with them for 20 minutes. No one ever answered, so we went through the drive thru and asked them about the prescription and then we mentioned not being able to get ahold of them so they’d know in case their phones were down. She said no and didn’t apologize or offer an explanation for the wait at all. I understand that things get busy and people are understaffed. I know from experience that it is 1000% possible to multitask and answer the phone while filling prescriptions. If outstanding circumstances occur (which they do), the least you can do (and SHOULD do) is be kind to the patient and offer an apology or explanation.

It's perfect in quirky ways and quirky in perfect ways. 1* Acknowledged when walking in. 2* Staff honors customers with dignity. 3* My experience was that the staff was able to assist me with anything I needed to find and respond to me according to my preference, with a strong customer focus and a clear purpose of helping people. 4* Treated with a lot of respect, as a valued customer. 5* Access to restrooms is fine, even if they are a little dirty. This store is in a nice, safe neighborhood surrounded by nice homes situated near the bay... but this section of South Howard is right in the middle of South Tampa's most concentrated collection of decent restaurants and bars. Unfortunately, this section of South Howard becomes a bar crawl for large quantities of upwardly mobile drunk people. This CVS is at the midway point on this restaurant strip, and a lot of civil but drunk people loudly stagger in, loudly stagger through the parking lot, and loudly stagger down the street. The parking lots at the restaurants get packed, so people who are not shopping at CVS apparently park in the CVS parking lot thinking that it's no big deal. The employees provide friendly, inclusive service, but the management of this store probably has to really struggle with the after-sunset cocktail crowd that mistakes this store for Café du Monde, and with the customers of other businesses that mistake the CVS parking lot for a free parking lot that nobody shopping at CVS uses. All I can say is if you're shopping there during the hours when people have dinner and you plan to be there longer than five minutes, listen closely for your car to be described over the loud speaker. If you hear it, go quickly to the front of the store to claim your car. If you need to use the restroom, tell the cashier first so that your car doesn't get towed.
