Within the Dufferin Area Family Health Team, a clinical pharmacist works directly with physicians to ensure patients’ best use of medications.
The pharmacist is able to see patients for a wide range of medication-related concerns. The pharmacist will help patients resolve any problems or concerns to ensure patients get the maximum benefit from their medications and discuss how medications are best taken or used.
Types of Patients Seen
Most often, patients that are referred to the pharmacist:
- Are on complex medication regimens
- Require help to manage their medications – both prescription and non-prescription
Appointment Information
