Dr. Mona Vand: The Modern Pharmacist (2014)

Dr. Mona Vand has spent her entire career helping patients achieve optimal wellness. Attending the prestigious Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Dr. Vand graduated as a Doctor of Pharmacy in only six years. Upon graduation, she chose to relocate back to the west coast, where she's excelled as a Clinical compounding Pharmacist, tailoring medical treatment to the specific needs of her patients on an individual level. In an era where prescription drugs continue to play an ever-increasing role in the treatment of millions, Dr. Vand's goal is to keep patients informed about the overall benefits -and the potential risk factors - of pharmaceutical products. By expanding the conversation of patient health and traditional medicine, Dr. Vand is helping individuals learn the importance of patient care, food consumption, and making healthier lifestyle choices. While traditional science may consider medication as the first line of defense in the clinical treatment of patients, the modern world requires a pharmacist who can help patients understand that medication is truly only the beginning. Dr. Vand's mission is to teach her patients that medication; diet, exercise and lifestyle are all equally important factors in the daily fight to live well. Dr. Mona Vand is your resource guide to a contemporary pharmaceutical world, creating a movement called, 'The Modern Pharmacist.' Her goal is to help educate and empower a new generation of health conscious patients, while still catering to existing generations who often have questions about the medication they take. By creating one forum for pharmaceutical advice, 'The Modern Pharmacist' movement will help patients understand the connection between pharmaceutical science and overall wellness.
