Our Story

Our story dates back to 2013 when Drs. Jessie and Chase first met while attending Pharmacy School at the University of Kansas. The two started dating soon after they met and have been together ever since. They lived in Lawrence, Kansas for a couple years before moving to Kansas City to complete their clinical rotations during their last year of school.

In March of 2015, Jessie participated in the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) Residency Matching Program (the “Match”) and was fortunate enough to secure a residency at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. In June of that year, the couple packed up their belongings, rented a UHaul, and headed to a 500-square foot apartment in the Northeast. Living in Boston provided its share of excitement and challenges for Jessie and Chase.

In January of 2016, Chase supported Jessie in pursuing a second year residency which would require another big move for the couple. While interviewing for positions, Jessie and Chase were approached by a mentor and colleague about opening a community pharmacy in Kirksville. Excited about the opportunity, they flew from Boston back to the Midwest and checked out the prospect. A month later, Jessie withdrew her applications from second year residency programs and the two committed to opening Kirksville Pharmacy. The rest is history!

Kirksville Pharmacy celebrated its grand opening on October 7, 2016 with friends, family, and patients in the parking lot they share with Complete Family Medicine/Urgent Care. The look of the pharmacy continues to change as they grow, but the values remain the same- provide high quality, compassionate care at a fair price.
