Joel Garcia, PharmD

About Joel Garcia

Joel Garcia earned his Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He chose a career in pharmacy at an early age, knowing by the time he was 10 years old that he wanted to become a pharmacist. He even completed a sixth-grade project where he photoshopped himself as one.

Joel is passionate about building meaningful relationships with his patients. He believes every patient deserves to feel heard, recognized, and respected, and he takes pride in being an advocate who goes the extra mile to ensure their needs are met. Guided by the values of integrity, humility, curiosity, empathy, and gratitude, Joel is committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care.

Outside of work, Joel enjoys making the most of the Pacific Northwest with weekend adventures like hiking, snowboarding, paddleboarding, and attending concerts with friends. If he could be anywhere in the world, he'd relax on a beach. His favorite quote, "The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time," reflects his belief in appreciating life's simple moments and making time for the things that bring joy.
