Oluwaseun Agunbiade (aka Olu), Owner-Pharmacist / Pharmacy Manager
As a young teenager I always knew that I wanted to work in the healthcare field, either as a medical doctor or a pharmacist. Eventually, I opted to study pharmacy. I have over 20 years work experience in the pharmaceutical industry, hospital, and community pharmacy practice.
When I arrived in Canada in the year 2012, I chose to practice in Alberta, as this province has the widest scope of practice for pharmacists in Canada, and in the world. I am a preceptor for the PharmD students of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, of the University of Alberta, for International Pharmacy Graduates working towards getting a pharmacist practice license in Alberta, and for students enrolled in the Pharmacy Assistant Diploma Program, in schools such as CDI College and ABM College.
I believe strongly in the principle of altruism and coupled with my love and passion for the well-being of my patients, I strive always to improve and increase my clinical knowledge and skills to be able to give the best patient care possible, in collaboration with my patients and other healthcare professionals.

We are fortunate to have a dedicated, caring, and friendly team of pharmacy assistants, namely Andrea, Don, Hafsa and Chinedu. We cannot thank them enough for all their commitment and hard work. The story of Brintnell Pharmacy and Travel Clinic would not be complete without mentioning the sterling work and character of both Jacquie and Halima, who both worked to serve our community as pharmacy assistants from 2019 to 2020, and from 2020 to 2021, respectively. The staff and management of Brintnell Pharmacy and Travel Clinic will forever be grateful to them.
