In North America, pharmacists are seen as linking health sciences with the chemical sciences. Awards for natural medicine aren't all that common.
Bahrani works at Village Pharmacy and Health Food, at 225 Lakeshore Rd. E. in Port Credit. The store is owned by his family.
After attending elementary and secondary school in Mississauga's village by the lake, Bahrani headed off to Ohio Northern University to acquire his Doctor of Pharmacy degree and furthered his education at the University of Florida.
He has made a practice of dispensing traditional medicine and advising customers on the benefits of herbal and homeopathic treatments, and how to complement the healing process with vitamins, supplements and herbs.
It's a uniquely holistic approach to healthcare that customers can access with free consultations with pharmacists, homeopaths and other health professionals.
The store also stocks an inventory of natural and health foods.
