Jacqueline Twadrous
Pharmacist
With over 10 years of experience, I bring my passion and energy to work.
I love to get to know customers by name, their unique needs and preferences.
I make sure that every customer who comes to Valley Pharmacy is very well taken care of.
Medications reviews provide a comprehensive overview of the medications and over-the-counter products that you are taking. While reviewing your medications, I take the time to ensure you understand which prescriptions you are taking and why you take them. This allows us all to evaluate your health and gives you optimal health outcomes.
Also, it’s very vital for me to ensure medication accessibility. In my day to day, I help patients get medications covered through Pharmacare or private insurance.
Joon Lee
Pharmacist, Pharmacy Manager
I have lived in Chilliwack since 2006, and I pursued my dream of becoming a pharmacist by going to the University of Toronto. After I graduated, I decided to come back home where I wanted to serve my community.
I am always ready to listen and provide counselling about your medications whether it is a prescription or over the counter medication, and I can provide counselling both in English and Korean. I am also certified to do injections, whether that be your annual flu shot, COVID booster, pneumoniae vaccines, or travel vaccines.
With the expanding scope of pharmacists such as adaptation and renewal of prescriptions, I am eager to assist you in a variety of ways that would benefit you. I cannot wait to connect with you and see how we can work together to create an enjoyable pharmacy experience.
Chris Buchanan
Specialty Medication Compounder
The art of medication compounding is a very delicate profession. I started my career 20 years ago at a very busy compounding pharmacy in Vancouver. From there, I brought my experience to Chilliwack where I have been practicing for over 17 years.
I specialize in Sterile and non-sterile preparations.
I enjoy day-to-day interactions with customers and Physicians to answer their compounding- related questions.
Over the years I have created trusted, friendly relations with naturopaths, Pediatricians, and Specialists in our city that allow direct communication to meet patients’ needs and preferences.
Check in with me to see how we can assist you in getting your medications covered by your private insurance plans or by provincial coverage through Pharmacare.
