Jess and Inge talk to Dragana, the clinical pharmacist that works at the office. What is a clinical pharmacist, you ask? They wondered that too. Now, they wonder how they ever practiced without her.

In this episode they discuss:

-How and why pharmacists are medication experts.

-How patients and practitioners can utilize pharmacists. For example, did you know you can book an appt with your community pharmacist? Did you know that you can ask pharmacists about OTC medications, vitamins and supplements?

-How pharmacists support family practitioners and their role as part of the team. Pharmacists can advocate for patients and support messaging from practitioners, whatever the situation requires.

Pharmacists aren’t just the people behind the counter handing you a labelled bottle of pills. Get to know your pharmacist just like you would your doctor. They want to help you. Big thanks to Dragana for all of the info!
