Personal observation by Cleary is the basis of this publication.

Information is presented to give an appreciation of pharmacy practice in a Nordic country. CONCLUSIONS: Pharmacy education and practice is progressive and flourishing in Iceland’s National Health Service. Clinical pharmacy services are in their infancy; however, the potential for growth is immense. The Fulbright experience was educational and beneficial for all parties involved.
