Jen: This is pretty much the most wonderful idea- in my opinion :) Walgreen's offers a "retail clinic" in selected stores where you can get a quick check-up with a nurse practioner. The best part is the price. It's either covered by insurance, $59 if you don't have insurance, or free if you've lost your job and qualify! I've been reading great reviews from Take Care patients and they love the convenience of this quickie check-up option for colds, flus, etc.

What a great initiative! Thanks for sharing about this.
I went to a clinic in Duane Reade once. It wasn't too bad, but more expensive for those without insurance than this. I think it was 90 bucks. But if they took your insurance it was free. It was clean and the Dr's were nice. I also got better (very important). The only thing that I did not like was waiting in full view of shoppers before I was called in. It wasn't horrible, just weird! :o)

Hmmm this is a nice idea being that i dont have insurance at the moment, 90 dollars isnt that much compared to insurance costs. Let's see if they bring it to my town...
Thanks for sharing. I just had a friend, who does not have insurance...ask me if I knew anything about low cost doctor/clinics.
now I do!
Hmmm, that does sound wonderful...what wonder what the extent of their expertise would be...
Saw you on another blog and since I love photography I just wanted to check your blog out. And, I'm impressed. Some very nice captures there. Always love meeting other photographers (www.thenagainphotography.blogspot.com)
The Walgreen by our house has the walk-in clinic as well as the supermarket called Publix. They are both convenient for many who don't have health insurance... It's a great thing!!
