I think I already have trouble understanding why a pharmacy has the need for a drive through

I love the drive through when my sick toddler has fallen asleep in the car on the way from the doctor's to the pharmacy.

I guess in the US pharmacies aren't located near doctors ? Even in cities ? Where I'm from I usually just have to walk 3-5 minutes if not less to find a pharmacy after I went to the doctor.

Oh. You just don't understand America. Yeah, no, the pharmacy is a 10 minute drive from the doctor's office. And that seems decently close.

Unless your doctor is in a hospital type setting; then there's probably a pharmacy on site.

@Jomn @candybrie With a few exceptions, nothing in the US is close to something else, because their towns were built for cars, not for people, and most of their cities, which were originally built for people, were bulldozed over and rebuilt for cars.
