Walter Holland on Redefining Pharmacy's Role in the Opioid Crisis

We're battling the disease of addiction and it's more than just handing someone a pill and sending them out the door.
How can a pharmacy truly make a difference in the opioid epidemic? In this episode of SeventyX7, Heath Loyd sits down with Walter Holland, the founder and operator of Holland's Pharmacy in Columbia, TN. Walter shares his journey and the unique approach his pharmacy has taken to tackle drug overuse and addiction. He firmly believes that the role of pharmacies goes beyond just dispensing pills; it's about fostering communication and connection with patients.
Walter discusses the broken treatment model and how SeventyX7 aims to revolutionize it by emphasizing the importance of personalized care and ongoing support. He also delves into the challenges faced by pharmacies and how regulation changes have impacted their ability to help those struggling with addiction. If you're looking for fresh perspectives on how to combat the opioid crisis and want to hear from someone on the front lines, this episode is a must-listen.
