Some Victoria pharmacies refuse to fill Drive Thru Doc prescriptions

Several Victoria pharmacies are questioning whether prescriptions signed at Drive Thru Doc are legitimate or safe for patients.

The business, owned and operated by Victoria physician Dr. Courtney Morgan, has been writing prescriptions without examining patients.

Walgreens, Rogers Pharmacy, Wal-Mart and CVS will not fill prescriptions written at Drive Thru Doc.

Dr. John McNeill, who owns Twin Fountains Medical Clinics throughout South Texas, said he supported the pharmacies' position.

[font color=green]C'mon doc, why pay rent and overhead for a physical location when you can set up an URL for $10 instead?

There are some interesting reviews of the doctor on http://www.vitals.com/doctors/Dr_Courtney_Morgan/reviews:

I had a wait time of an hour for my appointment, because his staff can't seem to show up to work on time. I had to pay a $120 for an office visit and didn't even see the doctor. On top of that, he refuses to see his patients in the hospital. What kind of doctor is this quack?


And apparently the office staff isn't friendly either.

I checked the Texas Medical Board and there are no disciplinary actions against the doctor. Dr. Morgan is from Jamaica with his medical degree conferred by Howard University. He received his physician's license in 2007.

Drive Thru Doc is the actual name of his business!
Plans to treat STDs and expand his business to other cities.
He made a record called "Wassup, Wassup"

Maybe Drive Thru Doc is taking advantage of Texas' low regulations!
