About This Podcast
Welcome to Rated Rx Podcast, a show about healthcare, pharmacy, and patient safety told the way it actually feels in real life. Hosts and pharmacists Robbie Abasi, PharmD, Xavier Hill, PharmD, and Sam Llona, PharmD take the health questions people are actively searching online and break them down with humor, real-world experience, and facts you can use. You’ll hear wild stories, practical medication education, myth-busting, and the occasional weird medical history detour.

Our goal is make you feel more confident about your health, and help other healthcare providers spot what patients are really asking when they go online for answers.
