Joe Klimpel
Senior Director of Pharmacy Operations
Born and raised in Butte, Montana, Joe knew early on that he wanted to work in healthcare. After enrolling at the University of Montana in 1996, he discovered his passion for pharmacy and went on to earn his Doctor of Pharmacy from the University of Montana Skaggs School of Pharmacy in 2001.
Over the next two decades, Joe built a successful career in retail pharmacy with a national chain—starting as a pharmacy manager in Oregon and quickly advancing into multi-state leadership roles. He oversaw pharmacy operations across the Southwestern United States, including launching multiple new pharmacy locations and leading high-performing teams.
As Joe’s family grew, a return to Montana became a priority. In 2006, he moved back home and stepped into the role of District Manager for a statewide retail chain, continuing to expand his operational and leadership experience. When the opportunity to join OSRX arose, Joe welcomed the challenge and brought his deep expertise to the world of ophthalmic compounding. Today, he is driven by a commitment to delivering exceptional products and outcomes for patients nationwide.
Outside of work, Joe enjoys spending time with his wife and three children. He’s happiest outdoors—skiing, hunting, rafting, wake surfing, and golfing across Montana’s landscape.
