As a small, good neighbor pharmacy, McCarthy Pharmacy in Santa Monica provides local residents with medications and other needed items, but keeps the friendly touch lacking in some of the other chain pharmacies. Offering low prices, the pharmacy boasts expertise on asthma, pain management, HIV and diabetes. A Spanish-speaking pharmacist is on site at all times, and any medication can be delivered for free to near neighborhoods. The store also carries toiletries, reading glasses and sunglasses, small snacks, candy, gum and beverages.
