I live in Laurel, MD and went to the store on 15100 Baltimore Ave (store #1790) for a simple flu shot. After the pharmacist administered the shot, she fumbled it, and then accidentally stabbed her thumb with my USED needle. She then told me that she "didn't know what to do!" and then sent me home. She called me on my personal cell phone at 9:45 at night and told me she needed me to come back and fill out paperwork. Then, she called me THREE more times the next morning, and said she wanted me to get bloodwork done to make sure I was not positive for anything. I finally agreed, (I'm a nice person, I know I'm completely fine but she was scared). She said she set-up the payment and I could just show up and get the bloodwork done. 2 more trips to the urgent care later, I FINALLY get the payment approved from CVS and get the bloodwork done for her. Of course, it was fine, and I thought it was all over. BUT WAIT!!! One week later, I get a bill in the mail from LabCorp for $340.00 IN MY NAME. I call the local CVS and the manager said it was MY PERSONAL PROBLEM between the pharmacist and myself and refused to help me solve the issue. I finally contacted the corporate office for CVS at their 1800 line, and 21 PHONE CALLS and 2 1/2 weeks later IT IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. I have been mistreated, I have not spoken with anyone who will help me, and I am now considering legal action against CVS and the pharmacist who has poorly handled herself and has been completely unprofessional in the process. I myself will NEVER EVER return to a CVS again, and am passing along my story to all my familiy members and friends as well. They have until Monday when the bill is due to get it resolved, and then my attorney will be the next one to speak with them. I guess that's what I get for trying to be a decent person and do the right thing.
