Wembley Pharmacy is a community pharmacy in Wembley, Alberta, about 15 minutes west of Grande Prairie. We are a family-focused practice in a vibrant, growing community, with an experienced team of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and assistants. Our dispensary runs on TELUS Health Kroll with prescription counting and confirmation robotics, so our pharmacists spend their time on patient care, not counting. We share our premises with Halo Wellness, where nurse practitioners see patients on Mondays and Thursdays. Wembley is an eligible rural community under the federal Canada Student Loan Forgiveness program.
