I have been a pharmacist for over 6 years and as a pharmacist, I have the privilege of helping people every day when they come to Avon Medical. Whether it is by filling a prescription, answering a question, or just offering a listening ear.
The best part of my workday is when I get to counsel my patients and get to know them. I love hearing their stories and understanding their health goals. By building these relationships, I can provide more personalised care and help them achieve better outcomes.
One of my favourite moments as a pharmacist was helping an elderly woman with rheumatism find the right medication. I was overwhelmed with joy hearing her satisfied voice after a few weeks.
Of course, some challenges that come with the job. It can be frustrating when patients don’t take their medication as prescribed, but even in those moments, I try to remember the impact that I can have on a patient’s life, and it helps me stay motivated.
Overall, I feel incredibly grateful to be a pharmacist, especially here at Avon Medical. I believe that the best part of my day is when I get to help my patients feel better and live healthier lives.
