Before it gets too busy, we wanted to thank all of our amazing clients for supporting us this past year. I may not be working full time but I felt the loyalty and kindness you have given to all the relief pharmacists, new staff, and our hardworking staff since 2012.

Yes 🙌 it has been 13 Christmases 🎄 with you.

One of our Christmas tradition that we look forward to every year is a visit from Santa. 🧑‍🎄 He directs our yearly picture perfect Christmas times with him. 😊

From our Pharmacy Family to yours…

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, may you receive all the graces and blessings that you need and wish for today and in the coming years.

Let’s spread joy, love and kindness.
