Welcome back to another inspiring episode of Out & About with Antionette! This week, host Antionette Blake sits down with the incredible Dr. Taquina M. Warren, or “Dr. T” as she’s affectionately known in the Smyrna, Delaware community. Dr. T is the dynamic owner of Focus Pharmacy, a local pharmacy celebrated for its exceptional patient care, diabetes education, and community-centered wellness programs—including lively line dancing classes!
In this episode, you’ll hear Dr. T’s heartfelt journey from Smyrna High graduate to pharmacist, her early dreams of becoming an OB-GYN, and how a pivotal moment and some strong role models guided her path into pharmacy. She opens up about the challenges and triumphs of starting her own business just months before the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of faith and community support, and her passion for making healthcare accessible and approachable for everyone. Plus, we discover how music, movement, and a little bit of kindness keep Dr. T—along with her patients—healthy and joy-filled.
From national recognition on Good Morning America to her dedicated local following, Dr. T’s story is one of resilience, compassion, and the power of following your calling. Tune in to be uplifted by her wisdom, laughter, and the positivity she spreads throughout Delaware and beyond!
