Where Local Health Matters

For the last 17 years Mark Watson has been looking after the local community’s health needs, offering qualified advice and dispensary services at his pharmacy in Home Hill.

Recently the business changed name from Guardian to Alliance Pharmacy because Mark wanted to represent a brand that aligned with his values of being a local and community-minded health care provider.

“Our motto is – ‘where local health matters’,” said Mark.

“Over the last 17 years it’s been a pleasure serving the community, growing up with the community and being part of it, both in and out of the pharmacy.”

And while the name of the business has changed, Mark would like to let customers know that it is still the same dedicated team, loyal service, and personal experience they have always had.

“Megan has been here for 32 years, Gianna for six years and Yolanda has over 19 years experience in pharmacy,” explained Mark.

“Our signage has changed but everything else is still the same.”

Alliance delivers a range of professional services, from Pharmacist lead vaccinations to their sleep apnoea clinic, plus a host of convenient in-store retail options.

Mark is a proud local having grown up in the Burdekin, undertaken his studies in Townsville before returning to Home Hill when an opportunity arose to purchase the pharmacy.

Mark and his wife are both heavily involved in Rugby League and Netball in the Burdekin community.  In his spare time Mark enjoys going fishing and visiting the local beach with his three children.
