Customized Care: Alumna Shows Compassion through Compounding

From a young age, Lisa Taylor (PharmD 2004) knew she was destined for serving in the world of medicine. She hails from a family of healthcare providers—her dad a dentist, her mom a pharmacist, and most of her extended family in some form of medicine. As a lover of science with a passion for serving others, the medical field just made sense. But with little desire to handle blood on a daily basis, pharmacy was the perfect fit. With several Boilermakers in the family, Lisa says Purdue’s PharmD program was the obvious choice. Now a compounding pharmacist, Lisa spends her days helping improve the health and lives of the people—and pets—in her community and beyond.
