About Us:
Hometown Pharmacy is an independent pharmacy group of 70 pharmacies in Wisconsin and Upper Michigan and employs nearly 700 people. We have been caring for our patients and connecting with our communities since 2003.
Our pharmacies do not simply fill prescriptions. Our pharmacists and staff are committed and passionate about continuing education and patient health. Not only do we educate our patients about their health and wellness options, but we also empower both our employees and patients with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their healthcare.
Because of this commitment, we take time with our patients to discuss how they feel and educate them about health issues, products, health-related current events, and offer options in their own healthcare.
We believe in functional health and collaborate with some of the best healthcare professionals across the country to better serve our patients’ wellness needs. We believe this is the evolution of the practice of medicine and is the future of healthcare.
What we’ll do for you:
We will provide a collaborative, educational, highly productive, and supportive work environment. You will be treated with respect and become part of our Hometown family.
