Clinical Pharmacy
Blanchard Valley Medical Associates proudly implemented Clinical Pharmacy in August 2006 to enhance our patient care and education. Our pharmacy focuses on anticoagulation (managing medications that prevent blood clots), drug therapy for diabetes management, high cholesterol, heart failure and high blood pressure.
The BVMA Clinical Pharmacy collaborates with area universities in providing educational rotations for pharmacy students.
