Description

Stephen, compounding pharmacist and owner of Specialty Pharmacy, has been specializing in custom prescription compounding since 1995. Stephen graduated from Auburn University with a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy. He also completed Primary Compounding training in 1995. This course is provided by Professional Compounding Centers of America (PCCA) headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Stephen is a member of the Alabama Pharmacy Association, American Pharmaceutical Association, National Community Pharmacists Association, Vice-President of American Pharmacy Cooperative Foundation, International Academy of compounding Pharmacists, Auburn Pharmacy Alumni Association Board of Trustees, and serves as chairman on the Board of Trustees for Lifecare Hospice, Inc.

Stephen has received many awards for his dedication to the profession of pharmacy including the Alabama Pharmacy Association Distinguished Young Pharmacist 2000, Drug Topics National Magazine Outstanding Independent Pharmacist of the Year for Alabama for the year 2000, and Professional Compounding Centers of America's National Pharmacist of the month, October 2000.

In addition to his pharmacy duties Stephen is extensively involved in his community. He is active in different organizations in Cullman and has spoken as a guest lecturer for many support groups. He continues to seek out opportunities to spread the word about customized medications to help those who can not tolerate conventional medications for whatever reason.

When asked, "What is the greatest satisfaction for you in your line of work?" Stephen explains, "Our compounding, because we are able to help people who have not, in one way or another, been able to find a solution to their medical problem. Working with their doctor, we can customize medications to fit that unique individual person or animal. When that happens either by changing the dosage form or using a medication that is not commercially available, it is very rewarding. We have had many women on our Natural Hormone Replacement tell us, "You have changed my life. I never thought I could feel this good." Or a family member of a Hospice patient writes us and tells us thanks for making their loved one comfortable when no one else could. That is what it is all about to me and its what keeps me motivated to find solutions to people's medication problems."
