Jonathan Pritchett, Pharm.D., R.Ph.

Jon, a graduate of Campbell University School of Pharmacy, has been with Central Pharmacy and Central Compounding Center since 2005. His first job at age 16 was with a large retail drugstore and it is there that he decided to pursue pharmacy as a career. While in school he developed interests in several unique aspects of pharmacy, including asthma, diabetes, and cholesterol management, and pharmaceutical compounding. This, coupled with a desire to work with his patients on a more personal level, led him to Central Pharmacy. Jon is currently the Pharmacy-Manager at Central Compounding Center South, but also devotes time at the other sites dispensing prescriptions and working with disease-management. Areas of particular interest include men's health, erectile dysfunction, veterinary medicine, and sterile compounding.

Jon spends his free time fishing, playing guitar in several local bands, and hanging out with his wife Katie.
