History
Established in 2017.
Joseph Voelkl founder of Buffalo Pharmacies, began servicing the pharmaceutical needs of the Buffalo community back in 1955. Through the years, he has taken care of numerous families at all stages of life.
Having seen over the years, many family and friends who have had debilitating life events and the lack of consistent, compassionate and reliable care, he and his sons decided to open Happier at Home to meet these needs. So many families today do not know where to turn with their questions and need assistance keeping their loved ones in their homes. There are many incredible facilities in the community but often the loved one desires to stay in their home. Sometimes loved ones need a little help with medication management, going to the doctor, taking care of their homes and daily chores. We have seen this need and are committed to helping families and their loved ones maintain their independence for as long as possible.
Meet the Business Owner: Joseph V.
Joseph Voelkl, the only son of German immigrants, his father was a butcher and mother was a cleaning lady, instilled in him that hard work and determination will always enable you to achieve your goals and aspirations. With this knowledge, Joseph decided to enroll in Pharmacy School at the University of Buffalo. After becoming a pharmacist, he purchased his first retail pharmacy and grew his business to a total of 8 retail stores now called Buffalo Pharmacies. Recognizing the changes in the Health Care Industry, he has created and adapted his business in the Health Care market to suit the needs of his customers and the Western New York community. Joseph has been fortunate that two of his five children, Trent and Todd, decided to carry on the tradition of compassionate health care. Trent and Todd have both been a part of Buffalo Pharmacies for over 20 years and are committed to carrying on his values and ideals of empathetic care.
