Looking to switch from Walmart pharmacy to Shoppers (lemmy.ca)

I'd like to move all my business away from Walmart, and their pharmacy is one service we use often.

While I know there are "lesser evils" than Shoppers, they are walking distance away, and that's important to me.

Can anyone share their experience with Shoppers for their pharmacy, and even better would be from anyone who's switched from Walmart Pharmacy to Shoppers.

Thanks in advance.

Update: Thanks for all the input, guys! I ended up going with a local pharmacy. The dispensing fee is about $1 more than Walmart, but they offer free local delivery if I can't get to them, and the person I spoke to was super nice about answering my questions. Sounds like I dodged a bullet by not going with shoppers. LOL

I totally understand and appreciate that, the only pharmacy I could easily walk to/get to is a shoppers. However since 2020 many if not most pharmacies in at least my city have kept up with deliveries. Check out if there are better than Shoppers pharmacies in your area that do delivery.

As I write this I realize the delivery was probably happening prior to 2020, for the old folks.
