Hello Hello!

Do we have any owners of an independent pharmacy on this board? The school I'm looking at has a specialty track that is supposed to teach how to start and operate your own pharmacy.

Is this even a plausible option when going against large chains? It seems like it would be impossible to compete in terms of cost/speed (which is honestly what customers care for the most, especially when they're sick).

If anyone does own a pharmacy, would you mind sharing your experience?

Thanks

You need to read DoctorM's threads.
 
I would recommend not being a Lazy Mooch.
 
yea read the Docs threads

personally, its all about location and demand, and having cash for some of the upfront costs....its definitely doable, you just have to do your HW
