Fit With Pharmacy Owners

With over a dozen Pharmacy owners in Atlantic Canada as clients, I've gained valuable insight into the ins and outs of running a pharmacy and the requirements and strains that go along with working in the dispensary and running a busy store.

As a core focus for my practice I have reviewed and understand various franchising agreements and various group benefit plans. I've worked through various succession plans and understand the opportunities available through various companies.

Whether you're just starting your career or looking to transition into retirement, I have the real life expereince with other pharmacists to provide you with insightful, comprehensive financial planning. 

We need a financial advisor who we can trust, who is approachable, and listens to what what our goals are. Chris has fulfilled all of those qualifications. He has helped us with not just investments, but our entire spectrum of financial needs including insurance, preparing for the funding of our child's education and setting up a family trust. With Chris's help we feel that we have prepared ourselves for the future.
