Pharmacy

Through our three outpatient pharmacies—one on the Robbinsdale campus, one on the Maple Grove campus and one at the Robbinsdale Specialty Center—we work with both you and your care provider to get you the medication you need when you visit the doctor or hospital. We make sure your prescriptions are working and safe, and we are here to answer questions.
