Alan Kaufman Pharmacist
Alan Kaufman graduated with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree from University of South Carolina in December of 2003 and has experienced 20 years’ in retail pharmacy focusing on patient care. He is focused on providing expert advice and care for your family to help you live well. His philosophy on patient care is best described by the following quotes. “Patients want to be seen as people. For me, the person's life comes first; the disease is simply one aspect of it, which I can guide my patients to use as a redirection in their lives. When doctors look at their patients, however, they are trained to see only the disease.” – Dr Bernie Seigel. “Hope is the divine motivator, if we had no hope - for a cure, for winning the lottery, for falling in love, for the end of war, for being free of abuse, or for having food, warmth, clothing, and shelter - we would have no reason to go on.”
