Review titled Unbelievably poor service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 15 October 2024
I have changed my chemist even though Cohens is on my doorstep. They obviously take on far far too many customers and clearly can’t cope. Went for a friend today to pick up a prescription that she couldn’t wait for yesterday only to be waiting again. There is absolutely no sign of any system in place. And as another reviewer said, what kind of chemist closes on a Saturday!

Thank you for leaving this feedback. We are very sorry to read of the issues you have experienced with this pharmacy it is not the level of service we would expect our customers to receive. Currently the branch is short staffed and this is impacting the level of service being currently received by our customers for we sincerely apologise. We are working hard with the field team to support the team during this time. I have forwarded your feedback to the regional manager and asked them to look into and rectify the issues you have experienced. I am sorry that you have chosen to go to another pharmacy, if you do use Cohens again I hope you find the service vastly improved. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. The Cohens Group

Review titled Good Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by David T - Posted on 09 October 2023
Service has improved significantly since last year. There now appears to be an increase in staff numbers and a new manager. Prescription ready 3 days after ordering and I receive texts when prescription ready for collection. Storage / allocation system is much more efficient. Collected medication today and also had my flu jab with very little waiting time.

Review titled Wrong Prescription
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Sprath0 - Posted on 01 June 2023
First time using this chemist and the pharmacist got my prescription wrong twice. One item missing from prescription and a double dose of another drug. Returned all the items to the chemist and told them that there was a mistake, I was told that I was wrong or the doctor who sent the prescription had made a mistake. Upon further investigation the pharmacist admitted that it was her fault for the omission and was sorry for the mistake. When I got home and checked the contents I found that the double dose was still in the bag, so instead of 28 tablets as prescribed by the doctor I had 56 tablets.

Review titled Poor service
Rated 1 star out of 5

Firstly the staff attitude is appalling. When answering the phone they never say hello, who they are or a simple how can I help you ? Just answer with 'Cohens' Today when I queried why I'd been waiting 7 days for a prescription to be processed, which still wasn't ready, I was met with a barrage of excuses ' we are a very busy chemist' ' we've had a lot of staff leaving so we are short staffed ' and was lastly told ' if you aren't happy go somewhere else, which is exactly what I've done today, I've changed the chemist ! This is a monthly occurrence and not a one off. Waiting for over 7, sometimes 10 days, to process a prescription, which is a regular monthly medication order. We have a home delivery set up as prescription is for a very elderly, severely disabled woman of 90. For the past 3 months we have had to contact 111 to arrange a prescription as medication has not been delivered as promised and has run out. I'm told I should be phoning them to check on the prescription, surely I shouldn't need to do this if I'm making a request 10 days in advance ! Given the appalling service I would at least expect an apology when questioning why its taken so long to process a medication request, instead I'm faced with rude, defensive staff complaining how short staffed they are.
