When Whitney Culpepper decided to pursue a business venture, she knew exactly what she wanted it to look like.
After working part-time at a local pharmacy, the Samford University graduate and longtime Hoover resident realized the value of building a personal relationship with patients and making them feel cared about.
When she opened Hoover Hometown Pharmacy in July 2016, she said she wanted to do just that.
“My patients become more like my friends,” she said. “I wanted to be able to provide wellness to the Hoover community while also working to be as active as possible in local events, schools and sports teams.”
Whitney said she wanted to offer a place where patients can develop a personal relationship with their pharmacists and feel taken care of in the Hoover community.
“I call my patients when prescriptions have been called in, when they are ready and everywhere in between,” she said. “I love to send out birthday and get well cards to patients just to show them that we truly care and to add a personal touch. I love getting to know my patients on a deeper level than just filling their prescription. This is the most rewarding part of my job.”
Whitney said Hoover Hometown Pharmacy also tailors its services to helping Hoover patients on an individualized level; the pharmacy sells locally made gifts to support artists in the area and offers free delivery to patients in the 35244 zip code.
“I want the Hoover community to know that we are here for no other reason than to serve them,” she said. “We love being involved in our patients lives and really want to get to know each and every one of them.”
