Atlanta Business Apothecary Express Needs Your Support

The new coronavirus has changed life for all of us. Local businesses have taken a huge economic hit, but communities are finding creative ways to support the establishments they know and love.

In an effort to help local businesses in our communities stay connected and succeed, Patch will shine a light on some of them through a series of Q&A articles during this time.

Apothecary Express is one of the businesses in town facing struggles during the coronavirus. You can lend your support by reading more about the company, below, and by contacting them here.

Tell us about your business and its history in your town.

Our company has house call doctors that come to the homes. Right now our physicians can call in prescriptions and provide referral for the Covid-19 test if needed. The cost is self pay by credit card, PayPal, Venmo or Zelle.

How has the new coronavirus impacted your business and its employees?

We mainly deal in the travel business so it’s hurt our business.

How can local customers support you now and in the future?

We want to get the word out that our physicians can call in prescriptions and provide referral if needed for the Covid-19 test. A lot of people do not want to go into a clinic or urgent care to further expose themselves and we can have one of our physicians call you and take care of most non emergency situation over the phone.

Do you have any words of encouragement for your community?

This will pass and as horrible as it is right now, it’s going to get better. Storms don’t last forever and neither do bad times.

Are you offering any special services, promotions or hours during this time?

We are open from 8 a.m to 11 p.m. seven days a week for telemedicine calls at 678-894-4717.

Are there any other outstanding businesses in town you think deserve some community support?

Tip your Instacart people well.
