| The drugstores up here are starting to put those in all over. At first, they were not used well, because there are so many hospital clinics for minor emergencies that people just weren't accepting them. I went once and had such good care, 15 minute wait (heck, I have twice that in my own doctor's office with an appointment!) and came home with the same script my own doc would have given me....because they asked what I usually took and gave it to me! It was a no brainer to me. They do have a sign, though, that warns if you have a life-threatening illness, to seek help from a hospital emergency room immediately. And they don't set bones - just the ordinary run of the mill infections, colds and flu. And they take my health insurance and ask me to only pay the copay, which I would have paid to my doctor's office anyway.
