Indigicare Medicines is an Indigenous-owned pharmacy offering a unique approach to care. We weave together Indigenous traditional knowledge and healing practices with Western medicine to create a culturally safe and respectful space where everyone, especially our Indigenous community, is supported and cared for.
This ground-breaking pharmacy was created with the community’s guidance. Over several years, we listened, learned, and worked with over 300 people—including Elders, Indigenous doctors, and wholistic healers—to understand what a safe and welcoming Indigenous pharmacy should be. Our services and operations will continue to grow and adapt to meet the community’s needs.
Indigicare Medicines is the result of this shared vision—a place that honours Indigenous traditions and addresses your health care needs.
