Five Minutes with…. Kerry, Pharmacist at Community Care Chemist

Why did you become a Pharmacist?

I always wanted to do something in the science and health field. A family friend's son was a pharmacist for the Flying Doctors and I thought that sounded very exciting!

What is the best part of the profession?

I love the variability of my work. Every day brings new and interesting challenges. Pharmacy is a very diverse field and I've had the opportunity to also work overseas, in hospitals and do home medication reviews.  

What brought you to Community Care Chemist?

After a move to the coast and needing a change from hospital pharmacy, I applied for a position at Community Care Chemist and have never looked back!  

What are you most passionate about in healthcare?

I'm a real people person. I love hearing that I've made a difference in a person’s life.

Fun fact that not many people are aware of:

I love trail running!
