Patient Thrown Out of a Pharmacy?! Here’s What Happened
Patient Thrown Out of a Pharmacy?! Here’s What Happened I morning I was racially profiled at CVS trying to get my medication and I need your help getting my Justice this occurred at the 24-hour CVS on Curry Ford and Golden Rod it was 3:00 a.m. I was in pain I went to go pick up my medication I was already ready for pickup upon arrival I was greeted with a very nasty attitude from.
the pharmacist Ahmad Muhammad he was the only pharmacist there and he was very disrespectful towards me I gave him you know he gives my prescriptions I noticed that he rang up my prescriptions at the.
drive-through register even though I was at the front register um and I know I look in the bag and I’m like oh you already ring up my prescriptions where’s the receipt he says the receipt is in the bag I said oh I wanted to get these two these two snacks I look at the he’s like we don’t charge snacks at the pharmacy.
I’m like okay fine I look at the receipt I noticed there’s four prescriptions I’m only here for to pick up two so I said that to him and I said I need an updated receipt he was like no you don’t you can just go I’ll put the.
other prescriptions back I said no I need an updated receipt he is very agitated he gets upset he he returns the other two comes back slams a paper and a pen on the counter and like you need to sign this and I said what what is it for and I read it he’s like oh it says what it it says what it’s for on the paper on the paper.
it says I I authorized them to charge my insurance for two prescriptions um and so I was like can I see the RX numbers cuz I had two RX numbers on the paper I said you’re holding two prescriptions can I see the.
two RX numbers so I know that this is right because you just returned to prescriptions that I didn’t need before I signed this I need to make sure that the RX numbers match he’s like no you could just sign it and then.
What Gets a Patient Thrown Out of a Pharmacy?
I’ll show it to you I said no it doesn’t work that way um as I’m reading the first prescription I noticed it doesn’t match and I say out loud to him I was like sir this doesn’t match he’s like yes it does he starts yelling he’s getting agitated I’m like no it doesn’t as I’m reading the second one he snatches the.
prescription from me takes away my snacks and he tries to grab the second prescription but I’m holding on to it I’m like sir what are you doing what are you why are you doing that he’s like you’re not getting your medication tonight you have to go come back in the morning I said what is your problem why are you.
doing that you he’s like oh well you don’t want to sign the paper I said that’s not what I said I said the prescription didn’t match is it if it doesn’t match you’re not going to get it and I said sir it’s 3:00 in the morning.
I’m getting my medication tonight he ref he denied me my medication he took away my snacks I was like why did you take my snacks he was like you’re not going to pay for them obviously a lie because I tried to pay for them and you just told me that I don’t pay for prescriptions at the I don’t pay.
The Truth Behind Patients Being Kicked Out of Pharmacies
for snacks at the pharmacy so I was going to go at the front anyway he was like how do I know you’re going to pay at this point I clocked it I realize what’s going on this man is obviously being racist discriminatory towards me at the end of.
the night I end up calling the the police to get my medication at the end of the night I never got my prescriptions back I ended up leaving with a trespass warning to the pharmacy and then on on top of that when the police.
came Ahad the pharmacist disclosed the name of my medication to the cop that is illegal that’s a hippo violation and I know my rights because I’m a licensed and certified pharmacy tech for 5 years and I actually used to work at CVS so I know the procedure a mod the pharmacist needs to be fired I’m.
going to get my Justice and I need your help please tag CVS tag any lawyers in Florida that would take my case because at the end of the day I’m still in pain I still did not get my medication and I got trespassed for.
What NOT to Do at a Pharmacy (Or This Happens)
sticking up for myself so I need your help my goals of my platform is to always ad vate for the pharmacy profession however when someone is doing something that is inappropriate or wrong to another patient this is when I have to use my platform to call them out and luckily that this Creator is a.
pharmacy technician so she knows the laws she knows what she is able to get what she isn’t able to get and luckily you know she realized that she was signing for something that she wasn’t even picking up and I completely understand that you know retail farmacy is so stressful right now but we also have.
to make sure that we’re not breaking laws because you can’t ring out for four prescri rtion if the patient is only trying to pick up two prescriptions and then also just a heads up to everyone you know if you are bringing.
couple things to the pharmacy and you’re ringing out your prescriptions then there is no problem for you to have those rung out and I really hope that this pharmacy technician gets her justice and I really hope by using my platform and you know I have a large Pharmacy audience that we make sure that we do not do these things to patients.
