Adam is a compounding pharmacist that works extensively with bio-identical hormones, thyroid compounds, low-dose naltrexone, and customized pain creams. He is also a clinical pharmacist with NutriChem Biomedical Clinic.

As a clinical pharmacist focusing on medication deprescribing, Adam believes that prescription drugs can be a useful tool in a healthcare provider’s toolbox. However, for many chronic conditions, they simply aren’t that effective and can be quite unsafe and difficult to discontinue. Adam helps to guide appropriate patients away from harmful drugs such as proton pump inhibitors, benzodiazepines, opioids, and sleeping pills through NutriChem’s Deprescribing Program.
