He said the pharmacy started trading on Friday 26 February 2021 and has already received best wishes and overwhelming positive feedback from the UOW community, and looks forward to this new journey and his association with the 精东传媒.

鈥淚n late 2020 I was presented with the opportunity to open a pharmacy on UOW campus, which has been a significant project to undertake but a refreshing challenge,鈥 Mr Jankulovski said.

鈥淚 would like to thank UOW Pulse and UOW for supporting me and making our team feel welcome from the very start of this journey.鈥
