ABOUT:
Join a well established and respected independent, family-owned pharmacy, adjacent to an established medical clinic with 3 physicians. You will play an integral role in the health of the patients you serve, and the broader community, in a community-focussed practice where patient relationships matter.
We are a well known medical equipment and supplies retailer, also offering over-the-counter medication and patient aids. What you won’t find is giftware, greeting cards, confectionary, lotto tickets, HABA, and strong scented products. You will possess a strong moral and ethical compass.
We offer the stability, competitive wage and benefits of a large chain pharmacy, with the flexibility, respect and appreciation of a local, family-owned business. The pharmacy has a full team in place, including 3 pharmacy assistants (1 soon to be a registered pharmacy technician), 1 registered pharmacy technician, and 2 pharmacists, including the pharmacist-owner. We have a steady and manageable volume, and offer an excellent work/life balance. There are no evenings, Sundays or holidays, and work a 3 hour shift every third Saturday.
Experience is an asset but aptitude and attitude are what matter most.
