Are you or a loved one taking a variety of regular medications and supplements? A complex schedule may overwhelm most people, and it’s important that all aspects of regular medications be reviewed to ensure that no interactions or problems arise. We take the headache out of medications by preparing timed doses to prevent potential interactions, and suggest supplements that can counteract potential side effects of certain classes of medications. We also deliver weekly blister packs, and collect the old ones — eliminating the chance of double dosing!
Our pharmacists can review your medications and any over-the-counter supplements, to discuss goals and any potential interactions between medications. The purpose is to improve the patient’s understanding of their medications, including what medications they are taking, why they are being taken, and how best to take them. The review can also be shared with other health care professionals, such as the patient’s family physician or specialist.
In conjunction with family physicians, our staff are able to deliver and witness patient medication delivery, assist with blood glucose testing, insulin administration, as well as partnering with nurses and other home healthcare workers.
Many people qualify for BC government or work/school insurance coverage for many healthcare items ranging from injury or support braces, medications, hearing aids and even compression socks. The process to coverage however, can require lots of paperwork – talk to us about your situation and let us help you time and money!
With advancing age, many of us may be at risk of lower bone density, potentially exposing ourselves to increased bone fracture or breakage. We hold regular bone density screening sessions which help to identify patients before problems get worse.

We work together with you and your doctor to find solutions to any problem
