Pharmacy Careers at Walgreens
American Pharmacists Month at Walgreens
In this video series, we highlight the achievements and experiences of Walgreens pharmacy team members.
American Pharmacists Month at Walgreens
In this video series, we highlight the achievements and experiences of Walgreens pharmacy team members.
Pharmacists hold a unique and trusted position as the front door to healthcare.
Today’s pharmacy teams are increasingly involved in delivering clinical services such as testing, assessing and treating patients. They help manage both acute and chronic conditions and medications, provide preventive care and enhance access to clinical trials.
Motivated by the pressing need to advance health equity and Walgreens unique position to improve access to care, our pharmacy teams make it possible to drive meaningful advances in creating a better healthcare experience for all.
During American Pharmacists Month and every day beyond, we are grateful for all the ways our pharmacy teams model what it means to provide exceptional care for our patients.
Brian MAson
Brian Mason
When Walgreens pharmacy manager Brian Mason was in high school, he suffered complications from open heart surgery. It wasn’t until a pharmacist discovered an error in his medication that Brian’s heart beat normally and he returned to full health.
AnnMarie Soliman
AnnMarie Soliman knew she wanted a career where she could help people. So, it only makes sense that she ended up the pharmacy manager at a Walgreens in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. Soliman takes pride in her pharmacy being both an HIV Center of Excellence as well as a newly established Walgreens Clinical Trials site.
Dina Huerta
Thirty years ago, Dina Huerta took a chance on a part-time job as a cashier at a Walgreens in Arizona. Her best friend worked there, so she thought it would be fun. What started as a part-time job quickly became a full-time passion, as Huerta became a pharmacy technician.
Disability Inclusion at Walgreens
ple of all abilities.
The company works with community organizations and vocational, state and local agencies to support two programs that increase career opportunities for people with disabilities: Retail Employees with Disabilities Initiative and Transitional Work Group. After on-the-job training and completion of the programs, some participants are eligible to become team members at Walgreens stores and distribution centers.
Additionally, Walgreens has partnerships with the Turning Pointe Autism Foundation, which aims to educate people with autism in the life skills necessary to live and work independently, and Neurodiversity in the Workplace, which designs plans and programs for companies to recruit, attract, hire and retain neurodiverse talent.

Angela Mackey
Angela Mackey is on a mission to tear down the barriers for people with disabilities and celebrate their role in the workplace. Heading up the human relations department at the Walgreens distribution center in Pendergrass, Georgia, Angela has hired and trained many team members with disabilities. Born with cerebral palsy, Angela knows firsthand the way people with disabilities can be judged and have doors closed on them.
Johnathan Cooper
Everyone who works at the Walgreens distribution center in Pendergrass, Georgia, knows one thing: Their birthday will never be forgotten. That’s because Johnathan Cooper, who has worked there for 14 years, has everyone’s birthday memorized. But that’s not the only way he looks out for his teammates. Johnathan is the warehouse’s safety ambassador, and making sure that he and his coworkers are safe is his top priority. Johnathan has autism, which he says can sometimes make communication a challenge, but it’s clear he has deep connections with his team members.
Sarah Freedman
When Sarah Freedman suffered her first migraine in college, she thought it was just a headache. But as they became more frequent, she realized she had something very different, and very misunderstood: chronic migraine. Because many people don’t realize that chronic migraine is a qualified disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act, people with migraine often don’t ask for help. But Sarah, a Walgreens pharmacist for 25 years, is on a mission to help them understand their condition and get the help they need.
Sara Gold
When Sara Gold found out her renal disease meant she would need to go on dialysis, she was petrified. She didn’t need to start it right away, but starting it too late could cause problems down the road. But as a Walgreens pharmacy technician, a chance conversation with a customer helped her feel at ease and move forward. Sara’s connection with the patients who call in is no surprise, given the empathy and connection she has with her family.
