Ontario Pharmacists Association
Easing the Burden: How Pharmacists Are Supporting a Depleted Healthcare System at the Cost of Their Own Wellness. We offer a variety of online and in-person professional development programs and events, including our annual conference. Developed by insightful facilitators, these programs are designed to guide you through your practice.

Advocating on behalf of patients, working 24/7 for them, and making sure every prescription is right for them is what keeps me sharp and wanting to come into work every day. You know, your pharmacist is the final person you see in the chain of care. I want to make sure every patient of mine leaves the pharmacy with exactly what they need to live a healthy life.

When I was a student and when OPA was the only thing I knew, I thought they were a great association. Unfortunately, as the years went by, my trust in them has receded greatly, leading me to leave for good.
OPA: I'd really like to know who you are supporting: overworked pharmacists or greedy corporations? It seems your recent lobbying efforts have been for big companies like Shoppers Drug Mart. When the majority of pharmacists have been against symptomatic testing, you marketed it like we had a choice. But when a fellow pharmacist quit his job over sustained pressure to test despite him knowing

The profession of pharmacy in Ontario has never been in such disarray courtesy of the government and the lack of action by our “Advocacy” body the OPA. This is my first year not a member. I could not in good conscience throw away my hard earned money to an organization that will not stand up for the very profession they are supposed to protect. The gym discount was the only benefit I saw to being apart of the OPA. Please re-structure and advocate for the profession and I will return.

Pharmacists need a voice to advocate on their behalf as OPA has failed to do so.
