Walgreen's is indeed a great place to go, next to CVS. Rite-Aid and Walmart's Pharmacies just aren't cutting it. The rude service, the long wait times, pricey drugs...ugh. Before we moved back home from Missouri - that's all I used was Walgreen's. Very happy that they are coming back. Of course, the one in Hurricane is taking awhile to be built...

The specific chain doesn't matter. They are all run roughly the same way. All retail pharmacies treat their pharmacists like dogs...and that sometimes gets projected outwards towards customers...er, I mean patients. I interned at Kroger for 2.5 years. That's all I needed to know that I want nothing at all to do with them. I got into clinical pharmacy and I have a comfy hospital job. It takes a madman to want to do retail pharmacy. That or a person that wants to get paid as retail pharmacists make an obscene amount of money...but those people are essentially whores.
Want some real advice? Avoid every chain pharmacy there is. Their pharmacists do not get lunch breaks, work 12+ hours straight, don't get enough help, work in an environment where its all about money, money, money and a corporate stooge decides how they practice rather than the person that went to school for seven years....it's ridiculous.
Find an independent pharmacy or a Medicine Shoppe (the Best Western of pharmacies). If you find a good one, you'll get the best patient advocates in the profession because, frankly, they tend to care more as it is THEIR pharmacy.
Honestly, I hate Wags the most. Read into Walgreens now "Power" program. It's an utter embarrassment for the profession.
my family uses a local drug store called Clendenin Phrmacy. It is the best when it comes to personal care. In a small town where the service is great.
There is a 3 Rite Aids and a CVS all in a short distance, but they still hold true.
I enjoy chain Pharmacies for their convience stores, not their drugs.
I hated using Rite Aid for prescriptions, I finally found an Epic pharmacy and loved it and the pharmacist, it was very personable and he knew everyone. I used them for years. Now that I have moved, I have been using Walmart but plan to find another Epic.
A car that gets 30 MPG that leaves with a full tank of gas from Canton Ohio heading south on I77.
Has no reason to stop, forget about bathroom breaks, will be way into Virginia. So basically WV becomes a blink in the memory. Is that what you want?
Build and create a reason for people to stop and dump money in your state.
