Walgreens and CVS are redesigning their drugstores to focus more on health. Here’s how they compare

Large light wooden beams hang from the ceiling with signs for the health services: optical, lab services, hearing, the “health corner” – where patients can make appointments, and pharmacy. The health services share one waiting room though they each have their own room.

People can head to the health corner to speak with a Walgreens employee, who the company calls a health guide, to book appointments. There, they can also schedule appointments on a tablet. They can also make them online or on the Walgreens app.
