What do independent pharmacy innovation and Scranton, Pennsylvania have in common? This week's guest, Tom DePietro of DePietro's Pharmacy, is helping us find out!

Tom discusses the rewarding journey of independent pharmacy ownership, the importance of community involvement, and some of the innovative services and programs that are helping his pharmacy stand out. His passion for serving patients and advancing community pharmacy is evident throughout the conversation.

Tom is a leader, an innovator, and someone pharmacists across the country should be watching. We think you'll leave this episode inspired by what he's building and excited about what's next.
