Revised Daren Wang statement in Decatur Strategic Plan video…

“In 10 years, I envision Decatur Georgia as the meth capital of the Southeast!”

You have to pay to park at the Emory Clinic. I don’t think many people will use the pharmacy who aren’t already in the vicinity for some other reason (work, doctor’s appt, etc.)

I said meth-head, not meth lab. Fer gawd’s sake, I have scruples you know.

Don’t treat me like a dealer!

Scott’s got a meth lab? Can I get you to meet me over on the corner of Ponce and Church a little later?

(Daren endeavors to propagate a spurious rumor or two just for the hell of it.)

yeah, since it says “visitors” also, then probably open to anyone. but since I heard about this a few days ago, I’ve been confused myself about that point.

the other thing which concerns me a little (as Emory employee) is
“plans are underway to incorporate an Emory employee prescription plan into the employee benefits package in near future.”
will they make it cost-prohibitive to get your prescriptions elsewhere if you have Emory insurance? Like maybe more a Kaiser model, where you have to go to their pharmacy rather than any pharmacy? hmm…
