Sarah Spangler’s passion for pharmacy is grounded in both professional expertise and lived experience. As a pharmacist, patient, caregiver, and family member, she knows how overwhelming it can be to manage complex health conditions – especially when medications increase but relief feels out of reach!
After being diagnosed with an autoimmune condition in her mid-thirties and becoming the primary caregiver for her daughter with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE), Sarah developed a deep understanding of what it means to navigate the healthcare system from multiple angles. Her experience gave her a new perspective on the need for clarity, support, and collaboration when it comes to medication management!
This shared insight inspired Sarah and Krista to combine their individual strengths and create a space where medication support could be more personalized, integrative, and accessible.
As The EveryDay Pharmacist at Healing Roots Wellness Center, Sarah offers one-on-one consultations designed to help clients better understand their medications, reduce unnecessary complexity, and feel more confident in their care!
Her goal is to walk alongside individuals and families facing chronic health conditions, helping them feel more empowered and less alone!
With over 20 years of experience, Sarah has worked across retail, home delivery, and long-term care pharmacy, including roles with Oracle, OptumRx, Children’s Mercy Hospital, and Hy-Vee Pharmacy. She holds a Doctor of Pharmacy from St. Louis College of Pharmacy and a Master of Science in Law from Northwestern University.
Whether reviewing prescriptions, discussing side effects, or preparing clients for healthcare visits, Sarah brings clarity, compassion, and deep knowledge to each conversation. Her mission is simple: to ensure every person feels supported in their health journey!
