The Value Of Independent Pharmacy
August 2020
One of the big differences in independently owned pharmacies and their “Big Box” competitors is the diverse, specialized services that can be provided to the community. Certainly, Warren’s Drug Store is going to provide a more personalized pharmacy experience to our customers than that of our competitors. Some of the services we provide are similar to those found elsewhere, like Medication Therapy Management, Automatic filling of maintenance refills, and synchronization of your monthly maintenance prescriptions. However, at Warren’s Drug we are able to go well beyond that. We have just initiated a “Two-way Messaging system”, which allows us to communicate with you via text messaging, thus preventing many of the phone calls between pharmacy and customer. In the coming months, we will be rolling out more specialized services like total cholesterol screening, A1C screening, bone density scans, and body mass index (BMI) testing. Of course we already provide therapeutic hose fitting, as well as human and veterinary flavoring and compounding.
The value and benefit of having an independently owned pharmacy in your community is hard to measure. Call us today for more information, and stay healthy!
