Sona Pharmacy officially opens its second retail pharmacy today, Monday, September 9, 2024, at 106 Long Shoals Road, Arden NC 28704, marking a major milestone for this independent, community pharmacy. Sona has been voted the Best Pharmacy in WNC and Asheville since 2020, and the new location is an integral piece of Sona’s mission to improve healthcare in Western North Carolina. The Arden location is also the new home of Sona Compounding, featuring a state-of-the-art compounding laboratory and a new family practice location for Pardee BlueMD. Sona’s flagship location in East Asheville opened in 2016 and will continue to serve the community as they have for nearly ten years.

“The opening of our South Asheville location is just the beginning of our goals for this community,” said Aaron Davis, Director of Pharmacy Operations at Sona Pharmacy. “Our mission has always been to change the narrative around what a pharmacy experience should be. We’re eager to bring our patient-centered care to more members of our community and create a lasting impact in the lives of patients in WNC.”

The Arden location features:

Carside Pickup: patients can park in one of 6 numbered bays and call for their prescription to be brought out to them
Delivery: patients can enjoy prescription and over-the-counter item delivery across WNC within a 45-minute radius
Wellness Hub: the compounding team provides on-site consultations for integrative medicine services such as micronutrient testing and personalized supplement regimens
Local Focus: shop the local section for items made in WNC, including Sona’s line of cosmetic skincare, all while enjoying complimentary Buchi on tap

“With this new compounding laboratory, we’re able to serve a larger number of patients who have even more specialized needs and health goals,” said Franklin Rodriguez, Director of Sona Compounding. “Some of our services include hormone replacement therapy, dermatology, anti-aging and longevity medicine, and veterinary medicine.”

Sona and the community will celebrate with an official ribbon cutting through the Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday, October 1 at 4 PM. Visit sonapharmacy.com to learn more about Sona Pharmacy and become a patient today.
