Owner & Pharmacist

Terry is a proud Oneida native and a second-generation business owner. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville before continuing his education at Mercer University College of Pharmacy where he earned his degree in pharmacy in 1982. After graduation, he worked in various pharmacy fields including hospital and community pharmacy in Orlando, Florida. His experience in multiple areas of pharmacy enables him to provide unique insight to his patients about their medication regimens. In 1989, he and his wife, Mary Ann, opened Roark's Pharmacy and have been serving patients ever since. Terry is and has been an active member of the community where he has been a youth coach for baseball, basketball, and soccer as his two sons were competing. He has been a member of the same Sunday school class at First Baptist Church of Oneida since returning to Oneida in 1989. Now he and Mary Ann enjoy traveling, supporting the Tennessee Volunteers, and spending time with his grandchildren.
