This serendipity, a happy result brought about by chance, seemed to be a driver of the e...

Hinsdale pharmacist Steve Hiemenz said his professional paradigm has less to do with pill dispensing and more to do with patient management. And that's just fine with him. "My ultimate goal as a pharmacist is to work in a pharmacy that doesn't have any medications on the shelf," he said.
