Amy Lamb is a compounding pharmacist and hormone and wellness consultant at Medi-Center Pharmacy in Saskatoon. She is using her Wellspring grant to help attain certification as a practitioner of functional medicine, offered by the Institute for Functional Medicine based in Washington. Functional medicine seeks to address the underlying causes of disease, rather than just the symptoms, through personalized treatment plans that address genetic, biochemical and lifestyle factors. Lamb will share her learnings with other pharmacists through training videos and podcasts.
As a registered charity, the Canadian Foundation for Pharmacy (CFP) is uniquely positioned to fund practical research and innovative practice models at the grassroots level, as well as recognize the leaders of today and tomorrow. Our vision is to be a catalyst for change in the profession of pharmacy by seeking out, nurturing and inspiring innovation. Your donations are a way to give back to a profession that has much to look forward to. Thank you for your support.
