John Calhoun and his son Jeremy opened the flagship drugstore in the Highland Center next to Harris Teeter on Raeford Road. Cape Fear is now owned by Dustin and Tracy Gay. Great customer service and short wait times soon made a name for the busi- ness, and they opened another location in front of Walmart on Ramsey Street. Their newest location is on Main Street in front of the Walmart in Hope Mills. The experienced staff at all locations include registered pharmacists and tech- nicians, many of whom are board certified. The pharmacies accept third-party insurance plans, including Medicare, NC Medicaid, workers' compensation and Tricare. Services offered include prescription compounding, complimentary blood pressure checks, medication management and diabetic shoe fitting. At all of the locations, the pharmacy's goal is to fill most prescriptions in less than 15 minutes. Delivery is free.
