Nelms Pharmacy is a locally-owned pharmacy located at 108 Watterson Parkway in Trussville. The owner is Chace Nelms.
Nelms grew up at his parents' pharmacy, so owning his own had been dream since childhood. He worked as a pharmacist at the Trussville Walmart for nine years before starting his own drug store. It opened in a former hair salon on May 8, 2013. Nelms' prime motivation was job satisfaction. While he would typically fill around 600 prescriptions a day at Walmart, that left him no time to build a relationship with his customers. Now he fills around 10-20 prescriptions per day, but has time to talk to customers.
