Have been with Regency Square pharmacy for many years.

Additionally, and so important to me, has been the above and beyond effort given to help in any situation!

Thank You!

*2026-07-25, version 3.1.15*

I love getting my rxs where I shop.  This location has a drive thru and I can be in and out.  My only complaint is they still use plastic when they have paper bags.

### 5/5 — Customer Service

*2026-07-21, version 3.1.15*

Excellent service and I’ve never found a mistake in my medications. No one ever acts aggravated if I call with questions. The regular staff always remembers my name and are very prompt and courteous.

*2026-07-18, version 3.1.15*

I’ve been using the Publix pharmacy at Deerfoot in Trussville for several years now and I’ve consistently had friendly, professional service there. They always have my meds in stock. If you haven’t tried them, I highly recommend that you do.

### 5/5 — Needed app

With a child with diabetes this app helps save time and it helps me to always have enough medication that he needs

It’s so easy to order for refill.

### 5/5 — Describe RX ready to  be picked up

*2026-07-05, version 3.1.14*

When you have several prescriptions through Publix, it sure would be nice to know which one is ready, especially when they are on automatic refill.  Can you please fix that in your tech department?

It’s always nice speaking with the employees

### 1/5 — This app SUCKS❗️The email says my Rx is ready. I open app and my “ready” prescription does NOT SHOW

*2026-08-16, version 3.1.16*

This app SUCKS❗️The email says my Rx is ready. I open app and my “ready” prescription does NOT SHOW anywhere ❗️I am unable to PRE PAY for it AND I need to pre pay as I am disabled and have another person picking up. Pharmacy said that others COMPLAIN about this app as well. Publix, “where shopping is aq pleasure, DOES NOT APPLY TO its PHARMACY APP❗️❗️➡️Despite the developers reply, I and others  - including pharmacists - see too many errors listing NUMBERS of Rx’s to be filled - too many sometimes or not listing a prescription at all❗️An app should have OBVIOUS & CORRECT input choices without the need to “go around one’s head to reach one’s nose.” My post graduate degree is NO HELP navigating your app❗️Those who are old, with poor vision should not need to do mental gymnastics to use the Publix Prescription App. FIX IT OR RE-DESIGN IT. Even the Publix pharmacists agree that there is a need to IMPROVE this app🤬

### 1/5 — Last Update Stinks

*2026-08-11, version 3.1.16*

This use to be a great app I could do everything I needed to do in it . 
The update is ruin it , we need a fancy looking app that doesn’t function well. 
Last time I used it to update all my info and new insurance info , now it can’t do it.
Modern technology strikes again

### 1/5 — Cannot access app at all

*2026-07-26, version 3.1.15*

When I try to log in, nothing happens. If I try to use a one time code, I get a screen that says Bad Request. I have tried redownloading the app, restarting my phone, nothing lets me log in.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2026-07-22, version 3.1.15*

Created an account. The app asked me to add a new patient. Try to add “myself“, entered a pass prescription. The app keeps sending me in a loop to add a new patient cannot get out.

### 1/5 — It was fine.

*2026-07-12, version 3.1.15*

Your app is now worthless. I used it for years with no problems. 
Now it doesn’t work at all. 
Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Unable to Login

*2026-06-27, version 3.1.14*

I am unable to login. I was getting an access denied message so I uninstalled the app and then reinstall the app and anytime I click login ,It’s not opening up to allow me to login.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign in

*2026-06-23, version 3.1.14*

This app literally signed me out for no reason and now won’t let me sign in or sign up and when I try to do either it says “Oops! We’ve encountered an”

### 1/5 — Needs Work

*2026-05-27, version 3.1.13*

While this app has potential, even the pharmacists at the store agree that is messed up frequently.  Prescriptions go to the wrong store even when you verify the Publix, it is difficult to determine which prescription is the one you want to fill when there are multiple ones out there, and notifications are vague as to what has been filled.  If you want frustration, be all means use this app.

### 1/5 — Prescriptions never ready

*2026-04-08, version 3.1.13*

App is completely useless. Every time I fill my prescriptions through the app they are never ready at the pharmacy for pick up. I still have to wait in store for half an hour. I have to wait in store whether I fill it in person or request it in the app. The only reason to refill in the app is to avoid waiting around in the store. When the app tells me my medicine is ready… why is it not actually ready.

I can’t say enough good things about the Publix Pharmacy at The Village at Woodside in Aiken. Every experience I’ve had has been exceptional. The pharmacists and pharmacy team are professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about their customers’ health and well-being.

They consistently fill prescriptions accurately and in a timely manner, and they’re always willing to answer questions, explain medications, and go the extra mile to make sure you receive the best care possible. The staff is friendly, courteous, and treats every customer with kindness and respect.

It’s rare to find a pharmacy that combines efficiency with such a personal touch.
