Picture of Pharacist

Hello, my name is Larry. I grew up in south central Wisconsin and can't imagine living anywhere else. I have been a community pharmacist for many years and enjoy being a pharmacist, educator and healthcare advocate on mainstreet. I graduated from Drake University in 1989 with a degree in Pharmacy and have been a community pharmacist since then. Your community pharmacist is a medical professional who serves as a front line educator with the primary goal of improving or maintaining health.

Personally, I have been married to Karen for 28 years. We have 4 children, Matthew, a Pharmacist. Nicholas, and Engineer. Samantha, a graduate student at UW Madison obtaining a Master's degree in Public Health and entering medical school in 2021 and Kara, a UW Madison student obtaining her degree Occupational Therapy. Two dogs, Tucker and Wrigley who enjoy running in hayfields and chasing pheasants.

During our free time, we enjoy participating in endurance activities and sports, outdoor activities, camping, hunting and farming.
