Walgreens GFD

Lose in sales not the only reason in my opinion why Walgreens is closing store locations. The pharmacist select which prescription to fill.

since Walgreen was give the right to select which prescription the pharmacist felt good in filling Good Faith Dispensing it became unprofessional. How can a person working in the medical profession over ride a legal prescription. No one watching to see if the pharmacist was treated all customers the same. Also one pharmacist would fill a prescription and another would not. Trapping customers with no where to fill a pain medication and or a prescription against their so called beliefs. These set of standards have no place in medicine. I for one am glad to see Walgreens go. You are playing with people's lives. It is a professional duty to follow a doctor's oder of medications. Or work in something else. Especially when it comes to pain medication. You can not stop dispensing needed medication after years of doing so. That is sickening to watch a person drive around looking for a pharmacy. Most of the Pharmacies want all your prescriptions. You can not hold this over customers with high levels of pain. Take ,politics, religion and good faith dispensing out of the pharmacy. Or this will be the results.
