"We are very pleased to be joining the CVS family. MinuteClinic began working with CVS more than 18 months ago and it was clear to us from the beginning that CVS really understands what the MinuteClinic model is all about. They have been a great partner working with us to open MinuteClinics in markets nationwide," said MinuteClinic Chief Executive Officer Michael Howe.
MinuteClinic stations are staffed by certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants that offer treatment for common family illnesses, such as strep throat, ear infections
