What to know about Black Clinical Pharmacist care

Clinical pharmacists (PharmDs) are often the most accessible healthcare provider, frequently walk-in, evenings, and weekends, and they specialize in medication therapy management. For Black patients with hypertension, diabetes, or heart failure (conditions with documented disparities), a clinical pharmacist can review your medications, flag interactions, adjust doses collaboratively with your physician, and coach on proper use of inhalers, insulin pens, and CGMs. Only about 6 percent of U.S. pharmacists are Black (APhA, 2023).

How do I find a Black Pharmacist in the US?

If the list is short, consider virtual options as many Black Pharmacists serve patients statewide or nationwide.

Are there virtual or telehealth Black Pharmacists serving the US?

Yes. Many Black Pharmacists offer telehealth appointments in addition to or instead of in-person visits. Use the telehealth filter on this page to see providers who offer virtual care, which can expand your options significantly if local availability is limited.

Why does seeing a Black Pharmacist matter?

Research consistently shows that racial concordance between patients and their care team is associated with better communication, greater trust, and improved health outcomes. Patients who share a racial or cultural background with their Pharmacist often report feeling more understood and are more likely to follow through on care plans.

What should I ask a Pharmacist before working with them?

Ask whether they are accepting new patients, what insurance they accept, and whether they offer telehealth or in-person visits. It is also worth asking about their experience with conditions relevant to you, their communication style, and how they handle after-hours questions or urgent concerns.

Do Black Pharmacists in the US accept insurance or Medicaid?
