About
At M-Line Pharmacy we recognize that each person in the world is unique, their physiology is as singular to them as their fingerprints. Our approach to pharmacy emphasizes the well-being of the whole person; we strongly believe in a multidisciplinary approach to help our patients live their lives to the fullest. In our compounding labs we create medications that are unique to the individual and their specific medical needs. Our method focuses on the source of the problem and uses as few ingredients as possible to address the issue. We look closely at our patients' medical histories and review practitioner-prescribed lab test results if necessary, and our pharmacy works in conjunction with licensed specialists, general practitioners, physiatrists, psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, physiotherapists, naturopaths, ophthalmologists, optometrists, podiatrists, chiropodists, chiropractors, osteopaths and RMTs in order to ensure the treatments are as effective as possible.
