A LETTER FROM WALGREENS
Caring for the
Whole Patient
A
primary concern of cancer patients is the impact that treatments
may have internally, such as medication side effects or drug interactions,
but external impacts, like changes in physical characteristics
and appearance, are likely paralleled and overwhelming. At
Walgreens, we know that it is important to address all internal
and external impacts of cancer treatment to support our AYAs
throughout their own unique journeys.
We care for the whole patient because we realize that holistic care includes
addressing aspects that might not be visible to the outside world. Our teams
understand that side effects and impacts might manifest as lowered emotional
wellness or self-doubts about appearances. When you or someone you care for
are going through treatment for any type of cancer, the side effects can impact
not only how you feel on the inside, but how you see yourself in the mirror. When
you look more like yourself, it can help boost your mood and your confidence.
Programs like the Walgreens Feel More Like You® service provide holistic support
to individuals offering assistance in managing the internal and external side
effects of cancer treatment. Our beauty and wellness consultants are specially
trained to help patients better manage their treatment effects.
Alongside our beauty and wellness consultants, our oncology-specialized
pharmacists offer personalized and compassionate care, while being the experts
in third-party billing and financial assistance options. Cancer can be a devastating
diagnosis and Walgreens is here to support patients and caregivers every
step of the way to make the path a little more manageable.
Walgreens is proud to collaborate with the Elephants and Tea team to help
patients through the internal and external changes of cancer treatment.

Organ Transplant, Walgreen Co.
