Unsung heroes: Rod and Rich

To the editor:

I have always suspected that pharmacies hold the unsung heroes of the medical profession. Twice in the last month my family has benefited from the expertise and knowledge of Rod and Rich, two of Linds’ amazing pharmacists.

While having often relied on their professional expertise without acknowledging the critical connection they are in the health process, I would like to publicly thank them now.

Even though they remain largely hidden behind the counter, pharmacists’ decisions about drug interactions, proper dosage and patient education provide potentially life-saving information on a daily basis.

Thank you, Rod and Rich, for the difference you’ve made with your compassionate care!
