A New Vision of Pharmacy – Sartoretto Verna
“Most pharmacy projects fail for one reason: they are built like stores, not like healthcare experiences. That’s the gap Sartoretto closes.” – Fiona Sartoretto Verna.










Independent pharmacies across the U.S. are at a pivotal moment. One that calls for a shift from traditional dispensing models to a more progressive, patient-centered approach that’s rooted in clinical expertise. YOUR clinical expertise. As the need for expanded one-on-one services grows, the physical space of the pharmacy must evolve to match. Sartoretto Verna brings decades of specialized pharmacy design expertise to support this transformation, regardless of square footage.
Today’s pharmacy is more than a place to pick up prescriptions- it’s a destination for care, trust, and guidance. Design plays a critical role in communicating these values without saying a single word. Thoughtfully designed layouts, intuitive patient flow, and purposeful color palettes can instantly signal professionalism, warmth, and clinical credibility. Aside from eye-catching design, the ability to offer your patients a safe space for clinical conversations like medication therapy management, wellness coaching and even vaccine and testing solutions, sets your pharmacy apart from the norm. It’s a forward-thinking solution to elevating your position as a trusted healthcare professional.
IPC’s Vendor Advantage Network is excited to welcome Sartoretto Verna to our network and encourage you to reach out for a free consultation to begin transforming your pharmacy for the future.
25% Off on Sharps – Safe, Compliant & Eco-Friendly Solutions
Your pharmacy is probably deep in preparation for the upcoming flu season, all the while maintaining year-round vaccination and injectable opportunities. That strategy is ever evolving, and the need for Sharps solutions is a fundamental piece that may be on autopilot and costing you dollars. Whether you have a pre-scheduled pickup, or you’re struggling to find a last-minute solution to your now overfilled containers, it’s time to re-evaluate that piece of the plan.
Do you know your state’s limits on how long you can store sharps and pharma waste? Regulations vary and missing them can mean compliance risks. PureWay helps you stay on track so you can focus on patient care.
