Why I Do This Work
This Work Is Personal To Me
I’ve spent more than 20 years as a pharmacist, but some of the most important lessons I’ve learned about medications came from caring for my own family.
As my parents got older, I watched their medication lists grow. One prescription became several. Different doctors treated different conditions. Medications that once made sense remained on the list even as their health, needs and priorities changed.
And I found myself asking a question I believe more families should be encouraged to ask:
Do all of these medications still make sense for this person, at this point in their life?
I had the advantage of being a pharmacist. I knew what questions to ask, what to look for and when something deserved a closer conversation with a healthcare provider.
Most families don’t have a pharmacist in the family.
That’s why I created WiseMedRx.
More Than 20 Years of Pharmacy Experience
Throughout my career, I’ve seen medications do extraordinary things. I’ve also seen what can happen when medication lists become increasingly complex and no one has the time to step back and look at the whole picture.
My experience has taught me to look beyond medications one prescription at a time and consider how they fit together — and, most importantly, the person taking them.

My Philosophy Is Simple
Not anti-medication. Just intentional.
Medications can save lives, manage chronic conditions and dramatically improve quality of life.
The goal isn’t to take fewer medications simply for the sake of taking fewer medications.
The goal is to make sure every medication still has a reason to be there.
Health changes. Bodies change. Priorities change. Doctors change. But medication lists don’t always change with them.
That’s why I believe medications deserve to be revisited periodically with thoughtful questions, good information and your healthcare team involved in any decisions about your treatment.
Clarity over Confusion
I help you understand what each medication is doing, how it’s working together, and whether it’s still needed.
Quality of Life Matters
I care about how someone feels day-to-day — energy, clarity, stability, independence — not just prescriptions or lab values.
Prevention, Not Just Reaction
We don’t just respond to side effects — we proactively reduce risk and support better outcomes long-term.
What It's Like To Work With Me
A Conversation Without the Rush
Healthcare can move quickly. Medication questions often don’t.
During a WiseMedRx medication review, you have dedicated time to talk through your medications with a pharmacist who is looking at the full picture.
I’ll review what you’re taking, help you better understand your medications and identify questions or concerns that may be worth discussing with your doctor or other healthcare provider.
There’s no judgment. No pressure. And no expectation that you should already understand everything on your medication list.
You can simply bring your medications and your questions. We’ll start there.
I’m Here to Help You Ask Better Questions
WiseMedRx doesn’t replace your physician or other healthcare providers, and I’ll never tell you to stop a prescribed medication on your own.
What I can give you is something that can be difficult to find in a busy healthcare system: time devoted specifically to understanding your medications.
My goal is for you to leave your review better informed, with clearer questions and information you can use in conversations with the healthcare professionals who manage your care.
Why WiseMedRx?
Because sometimes what you need isn’t another prescription.
You need someone to sit down, look at everything you’re taking and help you understand the bigger picture.
That’s the kind of pharmacist I wanted my own parents to have.
And it’s why I created WiseMedRx.
