On May 6th, we were visited by Dr. Mark Binkley. Dr. Binkley is a licensed pharmacist and chemist. Dr. Binkley
obtained a B.A. in Biology from David Lipscomb University,
and his pharmacy degree from Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama
in 1976. Originally started as an apothecary style practice, Dr
Binkley has evolved the focus of his practice to searching for
solutions for individual healthcare problems. He was the recipient of
the 1989 Pharmacist of the Year by the Professional Compounding Centers
of America, based in Houston, Texas. He received the 1999 Innovative
Practice Award from the Tennessee Pharmacist Association for the
changes he had made within the pharmacy.In
2004, the Health & Wellness Pharmacy made a significant jump from
Green Hills to the medical community surrounding Baptist and Centennial
Hospitals near Centennial Park. At their current location, they are
surrounded by offices of medical practitioners whom they provide
medications for their daily practice. While
medication compounding is the primary business of the pharmacy, Dr
Binkley sees patients on an appointment schedule to answer specific
health questions. Dr Binkley has unique training in evaluation of
hormone imbalances, and has been counseling patients for over ten years
on appropriate use of hormone therapy. Local physicians refer patients
to him for evaluation and suggestions for changing their therapies to
achieve optimal outcomes. In addition to these personal services, the
pharmacy performs other personal services including medication reviews,
bioimpedance analysis, and First Line Therapy services. Nutritional
analysis using Spectracell Analysis, nutritional counseling and advice
on nutritional supplements are also part of the services Health &
Wellness Pharmacy specialize in. To complement the overall wellness
concept, the pharmacy is implementing an immunization program to serve
the needs of increasing immunization risks.
