Asda lincoln Flu jab I went for my flu jab appointment today, no information as to where to enquire. One general staff knocked on a closed door and head appeared. There was 2 of us with appointments, she asked if either of us had to pay, I didn't as I am over 70 but the other person had to so was told to wait in the queue for the pharmacy, around 12 people. I was admitted to a closet with a table and 2 chair, particulars were take and I was asked which arm would I like it in. The prepared jab was taken out of its wrapper, injected in my arm and I was told to go. No antiseptic swab before hand and no plaster or cotton wool to seal and keep the wound clean

I just wish they would answer the phone at the Southport branch! So disorganised!

Usually no one at the desk despite people walking in. Luckily chairs are there to sit and wait as it takes a long time or multiple visits to collect one and the same item.

It is not the first time Tamworth Asda Pharmacy has not been able to fulfill part of a medication order. I realise it happens occasionally however the choices given such as return the prescription to the doctors and have it reissued, leading to further delays are not helpful therefore I am stuck no medication, no offer to call me when it is ready, no customer service. Added to this I was initially asked if I was there for someone elses medication before I had even spoken, GDPR concerns . However I understand from friends who work at ASDA they do not as a company take notice of revies so this is probably a waste of time

Medicine not ready inspite of being ordered 2 weeks earlier. They said they only revieved prescription the day before, but my GP usually sends same day. Told that even though an essential medicine for diabetes and that I didnt have enough, I needed to wait 48 hours for them to get ready. Even if they had received the prescription earlier they stated that the wait would be a minimum of 2 hours. Luckily I am a licensed medical practitioner so would be able to write myself a private prescription if I needed the medication from another pharmacy, but it shouldn't need to come to this. To be fair, the overworked pharmacist said he would try for the next day. I think I would be better off using another pharmacy. This one used to be good, have deteriorated significantly due to inadequate staffing. The store is West Bridgford in Nottingham

Asda Pharmacy Turner Rise Colchester. Unfortunately on the few occasions I've had to pick up medication my experience has not been a good one. Despite receiving my batch prescription and speaking with the staff who then speak with the chemist Each time I go in they never have the medication.I'm being asked to call them at least a week before and then to call them again to make sure its in. Then when I do arrive I'm being asked to wait 30minutes. Can I suggest that if as a chemist you have a repeat batch prescription for a customer that you have the item in stock This would be a much more proactive and efficient way in dealing with patients who have repeat prescription and stop these patients having to come back which in turn creates a long queue which spills out from the boundary of the chemist into the shopping area. However despite this the counter staff are approachable and friendly. This site is small and very busy for such a large Asda.Maybe a bigger area would benefit the heavy footfall

I had a flu jab today, and although the pharmacist was very nice and really gentle, the actual room it was done in was so dirty, small fruit flies buzzing around, dust on the walls where the plug sockets are,(which is eye level when sat down) . Generally quite dirty and dusty, not what you want to see in a medical place that should be spotless .
