Neighborhood Family Practice, a network of federally qualified health centers in Cleveland, has opened a new drive-through pharmacy at its West Side community health center. This marks the first phase of the organization's broader effort to expand pharmacy services and boost local access to prescriptions. A second Neighborhood Family Practice pharmacy is scheduled to open in 2027 at the nonprofit's new Ann B. Reichsman Community Health Center in the Clark-Fulton neighborhood.
