Mercury Pharmacy Corporation is a Bay Area healthcare company built on the belief that the best pharmaceutical care happens when the pharmacist knows your name — and when innovation serves the community, not the other way around.
After years inside both chain and independent pharmacy environments — from Rite Aid to contracted 340B programs across Marin County — Richie Duenas, Pharm.D. built Mercury Pharmacy Corporation from the ground up in 2013.
The mission was simple: create the kind of pharmacy where the pharmacist actually knows your name. Where questions get real answers. Where pharmaceutical care isn't a buzzword — it's the standard.
Today, Mercury Pharmacy Corp is the parent organization behind a family of community pharmacies serving the greater Bay Area, united by shared workflows, shared values, and an uncompromising commitment to the communities they serve.
"Independent pharmacy is where real pharmaceutical care happens — where clinicians are treated as partners in health, not overhead." — Richie Duenas, Pharm.D., Founder & CEO
Each Mercury pharmacy is independently operated with the same clinical philosophy, PioneerRx workflows, and patient-first culture — tailored to the community it calls home.
Serving the East Bay with full-service community pharmacy care, medication therapy management, and specialized dispensing programs.
