Review from Bethany J.

The WalMart Pharmacy has something you wouldn't expect in a big box store: heart, and caring, and compassion. This is due entirely to the staff employed there (and not necessarily with corporate policies).
Chris, Angela, Novalea, Nadine and the rest of the crew work together to efficiently fill prescriptions and counsel clients on new drugs and possible side-effects. They'll evaluate your current medications to see if there might be any possible interactions and they'll place notes on your file if you've had bad results in the past, to ensure that you'll never go home with that medication again (even if your doctor forgets!).
Getting your prescriptions filled at WalMart might seem as though you're subsidizing the evil empire. However, for many of us, it all comes down to dollars and cents and for the money, WalMart is the least expensive game in town. I routinely save $25 and up per month by getting my prescriptions filled here.
It's easy to move your prescriptions from your current pharmacy - go in and speak with Nadine about what's involved in the process. The staff are easy to work with and have often worked with me to fill or refill prescriptions that are outside the norm. I know that for a certain generic drug, I need to obtain it from one specific manufacturer to avoid nasty side effects. They have never once forgotten to special order it for me, which is pretty amazing.
But that's just all in a day's work for the WalMart pharmacy staff. You won't be sorry you started using their service.
