The Neighborhood Pharmacy of Del Ray Blog

Hello – Allyson here – Today I had the privilege of helping out Volunteer Alexandria’s “Spring for Alexandria” event for Del Ray. We spruced up the planting beds around the Farmer’s Market parking lot (also the lot for Dr. Stone, DDS) as well as a few tree beds lining the street. I hope you enjoy the photos – I know we had fun helping out!

Good afternoon, everyone! As we prepare for our medication review event to be held next Thursday (3/25, 11:00-7:00), we thought it might be a good idea to have our patients prepare, too. We have created a checklist containing the items that you should bring along to your appointment with the pharmacist:

As always, feel free to contact us if you have any questions about the checklist, the medication review event, or anything else! We look forward to hearing from you as we begin to schedule appointments for the event.

Weekends at the Neighborhood Pharmacy look slightly different than our run-of-the-mill weekdays. Here’s what you might find when visiting on the weekend…

Our Pharmacy Mom: Every six weeks (give or take) Stacey’s mom, Karen, comes down from New Jersey for the weekend, and is shamelessly put to work.

Our Up-and-Coming Technician: Max, the 4-year-old flatcoat retriever (mix) joins Stacey and Barabara on Sundays as our newest Technician-in-training. He enjoys treats, belly rubs, and long walks around the neighborhood.
