Something like 60 teenagers ransacked the place, a lot of reporting on it. Ideas on what to call an article? 2019 Philadelphia Walgreens robbery maybe? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.228.88.244 ( talk) 05:11, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
In the section /info/en/?search=Walgreens#Company_history, it says Walgreens began "with a small food front store on the corner of Bowen and Cottage Grove Avenues in Chicago". What is a "front store," or a "food front store"? Greg Dahlen ( talk) 14:14, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Made a lot of big edits to the page. I think I made it a lot better, but if anyone disagrees with any of my edits, I'd be happy to discuss. Likeanechointheforest ( talk) 20:36, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Village Medical is now owned by the same company that provides the prescriptions and now occupies the same space. This relationship of ownership of the physician and facility providing the medication should create an alarm 184.98.242.111 ( talk) 22:24, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
I've applied a tag on this article to dispute its neutrality. It currently gives undue weight to criticisms and controversies relative to the overall encyclopedic content of the article, and it is in clear violation of the NPOV policy per the issues described in WP:POVFORM.
