Customers flock to new food court, pharmacy

Bonnie Forgie is the first drive-up customer at the new satellite pharmacy that opened March 22 as 10-year volunteer Richard Dunlap mans the window. The new facility is about twice as large as the trailer it replaces and slightly larger than the satellite pharmacy destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The staff includes eight pharmacists and 19 technicians serving between 750-1,000 patients and dispensing between 1,400-2,000 prescriptions every duty day. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. The double drive-through window is open until 5:3 p.m. weekdays and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays for pickup of completed prescriptions and refills only. (U.S. Air Force photo by Steve Pivnick)
