Most people there are getting injections and treated by doctors for chronic pain. It is a stand alone building with a large parking lot and easy access to freeway however. No different than getting robbed in a large grocery or mall parking lot.

An unfortunate sign of the times. Cash and prescription drugs. They will always be the target of miscreants.

That's not a place that actually issues "pain medication" on the spot is it?

There is a pharmacy in there. In fact, there was an attempted break in last week. I didn't suspect that angle. The folks that come and go from that building are usually older and many times "hobbled" from injury or pain.

I can pretty much guess what was taken from a patient just leaving the Pain Specialist.
