Greg's Pharmacy remodels, adds new features including home medical items

Greg’s Pharmacy, 126 N. Main St., Bluffton, has a new look today and it’s more than simply a new coat of paint.

“We’ve remodeled the store, adding several new features while continuing the familiar items customers are accustomed to seeing,” Mark BonDurant, of Clark’s Pharmacy, owner of Greg’s, told the Icon on Saturday.

New to Greg’s includes:
• home medical items
• new customer waiting area for prescriptions
• new drop off point for prescriptions
• new checkout area

“Our number one priority is to have a great pharmacy,” said BonDurant. “Customers will now find a nice open look with new features when they come into the store.”

Newly added home medical supplies include wheel chairs, walkers, bath equipment and expanded shelf offerings items. Medical supplies are in the former checkout area at the front of the store.

The check out area is now in front of the pharmacy counter, which makes it easier to check out purchases.

Customer waiting, now located in the former photo studio area, offers couches for customers and a TV screen. The photo studio was removed in February as a result of the ever-changing landscape of digital photography. The one-hour photo lab was unable to keep up with competition from improved home-based printers and internet photo services.

Clark’s Pharmacy, an independent pharmacy, headquartered in Dayton, purchased Greg’s in Jan. 2013.

BonDurant told the Icon that since that purchase, Clark’s has added seven pharmacies to its chain. Four of the stories are in Missouri and another is in Van Wert. It now operates 12 pharmacies in Ohio and Missouri.
