Meet Melissa! 🌍💊

For the past 6 years (with a couple of maternity adventures in between!), our pharmacist, Melissa, has been keeping our patients healthy and happy. She’s the first to offer advice on over-the-counter medications and will spend all the time you need to discuss your prescriptions.

Outgoing, organized, and always smiling, she lives by “work hard and play harder” and loves heading home for family time with her husband and three kids.

Pop in and say hi—she’s always happy to help!

COVID-19 vaccinations look a little different this year...

The Alberta government is providing free COVID-19 vaccines for vulnerable populations, including seniors in long-term care, health-care workers, and people with underlying medical conditions, through Alberta public health clinics (i.e., the Banff Health Unit). Please call 811 for more information.

All other Albertans can also get the COVID-19 vaccines, at a fee. At Gourlay’s we will continue to offer COVID-19 vaccinations. Kindly note the cost of this vaccination is $140, but MOST private insurance plans do cover it.

At this time, we are waiting for more COVID-19 vaccinations to come in stock. Please join the waitlist to be informed when they are back:

Meet the owners behind Gourlay’s Pharmacy: Preston and Riley Eshenko

Preston is Banff born and raised, and even grew up in the pharmacy! He followed in his dad, Peters, footsteps, and got his degree in Pharmacy, before coming back home and re-joining the team. Off-duty Preston loves to climb, play hockey, and perfect his sour dough recipe.

When Preston took over Gourlay’s, Riley came on board with him! With a background in marketing and a passion for operations, she is the yin to Preston’s yang. When she’s not managing the front store, she loves to hike, paddle board, and whip up delicious creations in the kitchen.
