In Our Community

Burlington, Ontario is a unique city in which to live, work and play! SmartMeds Pharmacy's chief pharmacist, director and owner Jason Handa opened our business here knowing that Burlington offered tremendous long-term potential for the company, for our staff and for his family to grow and contribute in a positive, vibrant community.

Smartmeds Pharmacy is proud to contribute to that community on many levels! Here are a few recent initiatives...
