ESTEVAN — There’s a new option for Estevan-area residents looking for a pharmacy.

Souris Family Pharmacy opened its doors on Aug. 17 at 106 Souris Avenue North in Estevan. The space has been completely renovated to accommodate a small retail area, two consultation rooms and the dispensary.

Souris Family Pharmacy currently has three full-time staff members working at the store. Matthew Walliser is the pharmacy manager and store operator. He is joined by registered technicians Donna George and Trisha Lee-Karcha.

The pharmacy is locally owned and operated by Legacy Pharmacies, a group of Saskatchewan entrepreneurs that believes pharmacies should be owned and operated by pharmacists.

“Being locally owned, we understand the importance of personalized care and building long-lasting relationships with our customers. Our main goal is to provide exceptional service, expert advice and quality products to meet our community’s pharmacy needs," said Walliser.

“With the recent closure of two pharmacies in the community, there was a need for another pharmacy to fill that gap, and it provided an exciting opportunity for us."

Souris Family Pharmacy says it brings a new approach to pharmacies, focusing on client care with a smaller retail store that features over-the-counter medications along with a range of health and wellness products, from vitamins and supplements to personal care items.

Walliser says he is excited about what Souris Family Pharmacy will bring to the community.

“One of the aspects that sets us apart is our commitment to innovation and convenience. We have implemented technology to streamline our operations and ensure a seamless experience for our customers," said Walliser. "We can accommodate prescription transfers from other pharmacies, and our online prescription refill system allows you to conveniently request refills from the comfort of your home.”

Souris Family Pharmacy will be hosting its grand opening on Aug. 29 with a free barbeque from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. They will also have a freewill donation at the event, raising money to support Limitless Disability Advocacy Services.
