This fall, Oaklawn will open a new retail pharmacy at 310 E. Michigan Ave. inside the back of the Brooks Building in downtown Marshall, which was formerly the dialysis center location.

Pharmacist Joe Young noted that the new location will offer prescription services, medication counseling, over the counter medications, and other health care equipment.

“Accessible care is a part of Oaklawn’s mission and with the expected closure of a local pharmacy, our new pharmacy will fill a critical need, ensuring that our patients continue to have convenient access to their medications and additionally, making essential medications more accessible and affordable to our community."
