Doctor in the House: Why Your Community Pharmacist Should Be Your New Friend

World Pharmacists Day is observed on 25 September annually, to recognise and celebrate the crucial role that pharmacists play in building healthier communities everywhere. This year’s theme focuses on ‘Pharmacists: Meeting global health needs’. Why is it important to get to know your friendly community pharmacist, and how do they play a role in promoting health at the community, as well as national level? We speak to Lim En Ni, a community pharmacist, to find out more.
