CVS Health unveils first pharmacy-focused CVS Pharmacy in Boston area

CVS Health unveiled its first pharmacy-focused CVS Pharmacy in the Boston area on October 7, 2026. The location is at 32 Warren Street in Roxbury, MA. The company said the pharmacy helps bridge gaps in pharmacy care and makes it easier for community members to get medications, immunizations and other health care services from pharmacists.

The company said the Roxbury location has a full-service pharmacy and a customized selection of over-the-counter products for purchase. Patients can order other items that the location does not offer, with free delivery to their home. The location also has a medication disposal bin and is a safe needle collection site.

The company said the pharmacy-focused locations average around 3,000 square feet and help patients get prescription medications and advice from their neighborhood CVS pharmacist. Sid Tenneti, Senior Vice President and Interim President, Pharmacy and Consumer Wellness, CVS Health, said the new pharmacy expands access to medications, immunizations and pharmacist expertise.

The company said it has opened pharmacy-focused locations in Birmingham, AL; Chicago, IL; Detroit, MI; Houston, TX; and Washington, D.C. The company also plans to open more than 40 new CVS Pharmacy locations this year, including traditional stores.
