Hy-Vee Pharmacy

I have been using the Hy-Vee Pharmacy on East Euclid for 3 years, every since I moved from West Des Moines to the northeast side. I am 65 years old and have chronic medical conditions. That means, I am no stranger to pharmacies. I have used pharmacies in Iowa, Illinois, Arizona, Kansas, etc. This is the WORST Pharmacy I have ever experienced. They make numerous mistakes and give out conflicting information about why the mistake was made, depending on which staff member I talk to. The only reason I stick with them is because I like the delivery people, especially Joel. He is a wonderful person and does an excellent job delivering my prescriptions.

Came in for breakfast and waited 45 min. When I finally got my food it had sat so long that my egg yolk was dried on my plate. My plate was actually dirty, like someone made the plate and scraped it off to reuse it. I had potatoes on my plate and I didnt even order potatoes. Just a horrible job by the staff this morning. I love Hy Vee!!! Just not this morning. Shame on the kitchen for totally dropping the ball. Wish I would of took a picture of the food and plate.

This pharmacy never has script done. Today was no exception. Twice now my doctor has ordered prednisone in the early morning and it doesnt get filled til late afternoon which means I can't take til next morning unless I want to be up all night.Ugh

I would really like to rate this higher because I have had nice encounters with some of the staff members and one pharmacist. They have helped me many times. One small gripe: My issue is that I don't like how they say the name of whatever prescription I am picking up. They will now offer to go to a consultation room or go through the window. However, the windows are not always open. Prescription data is not the type of information you want people in your community knowing or discussing. One is not being given a choice here as to what data to share because they are disclosing it to you whether you want everyone else to hear about it or not. I hope their new management is more sensitive to this issue because no one wants to discuss their rights as patients and watch their providers or pharmacy or insurance company have an issue with them. Maybe other patients do not care, but I would like to keep my medical information to myself and also not ever have to explain HIPAA to people who should be trained on it.
