Erin Straughan did not set out to become a pharmacy owner.

For nearly 15 years, she worked as a pediatric CRNA, building a career in medicine while raising four kids and juggling the kind of life most women know all too well. But when the opportunity came to take over Tidewater Pharmacy, something about it felt bigger than business.

Today, Erin is the owner of TIDEWATER PHARMACY & MEDICAL SUPPLY LLC in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, a women-owned pharmacy designed around how life actually works. A place where patients are encouraged to ask questions, where explanations make sense, and where women do not feel rushed, dismissed, or talked down to.
