Pharmacist

JOB DESCRIPTION

POSITION SUMMARY

The Pharmacist at Anclote Pharmacy is a clinically sharp, patient-centered practitioner who owns the full scope of an independent community pharmacy: accurate dispensing, compounding, medication therapy management, immunizations, and the kind of personal counseling that makes every patient feel known. This pharmacist catches what others miss, recommends the supportive care that makes each treatment work better, and builds lasting relationships with the Tarpon Springs families Anclote serves.

ABOUT ANCLOTE PHARMACY

Anclote Pharmacy is a family owned and independently operated community pharmacy that has served Tarpon Springs, Florida since 2008, built on the belief that a pharmacy should know its patients by name. The pharmacy offers prescription fulfillment, local delivery, multi-dose packaging, medication synchronization, medication therapy management, immunizations, compounding for human and veterinary patients, medical equipment, long-term care support, medical weight loss, peptide therapy, and telehealth coordination. Beyond dispensing, Anclote pharmacists guide patients toward the supportive care that reduces side effects and improves outcomes. Because Anclote is independent, decisions are made in the building by the people who know the patients, which gives pharmacists real clinical autonomy.

Mission: We help our community live healthier lives through personalized pharmacy services, innovative clinical solutions and exceptional patient care.

Vision: To become Tarpon Springs' most trusted and innovative community pharmacy, building a lasting legacy of better health for our patients, our team and our community.

Core Values: Compassion, Reliability, Communication, and Accountability.

SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

• Every prescription leaves the counter accurate and safe, with interactions, contraindications, and dosing issues caught and resolved before they reach the patient.
• Patients trust this pharmacist by name, follow through on their regimens, and act on recommendations for supportive care that prevents side effects and nutrient depletion.

• Coordinate with prescribers, including telehealth providers, to resolve clinical questions and close the loop on every intervention.

• Maintain full compliance with HIPAA, DEA controlled substance requirements, and Florida Board of Pharmacy regulations, including recordkeeping and documentation.
• Supervise and support pharmacy technicians to keep the workflow accurate and patient-focused.

COMPETENCIES

• Active Florida pharmacist license in good standing, with no restrictions, required.
• Immunization certification required, or obtained within 90 days of hire.
