Neighbors, Not Numbers

When was the last time your chain-store pharmacist asked how you’re doing? Maybe you’re getting your prescriptions from a mail-order pharmacy. How’s that relationship going? Do they know your name, or do they treat you like a number? There’s a better experience waiting for you right around the corner at a family-owned independent community pharmacy.

Value of NCPA:

NCPA’s value is both networking and advocacy. “The network across the country I’ve already made through just a few conferences has been so worth the membership,” she says. “I have also valued being able to advocate at a federal level at (the NCPA Congressional Pharmacy Fly-In) for the last three years.”

For her, speaking up is part of the job. “Staying up to date with these issues and speaking up is a priority in my day-to-day professional life,” she says.
