Why HRT education through PCCA? Our members say it best!
“Through PCCA, I have had the opportunity to access education and expand my scope of practice. I am an HRT specialist and provide consultations to my patients, collaboratively working with the patient’s physician or nurse practitioner. The continued support through PCCA Clinical Services and education events have provided me with the expertise to be successful in this area of practice.”

"I have been a member of PCCA for more than 12 years. When I joined, I knew almost nothing about setting up a lab and starting a compounding practice. I enrolled in PCCA training and networked with other compounders to learn how to grow into a thriving compounding practice. This year, it is more important than ever to find new revenue streams that do not include PBMs. Compounding is the #1 cash revenue stream in my business! PCCA is an integral part of our success."

"PCCA has helped me to become a better pharmacist. They have helped me to look at health care disease states and problems in a whole new light. I see each condition as a challenge and know that we can find a solution. Compounding provides so many solutions for so many people, and for that, I am truly grateful."
