Help Bring Independent Pharmacy Care Back to Coronado

Hello Coronado neighbors,

My name is Arash Kohan, and for more than 15 years I’ve had the privilege of caring for this community as a pharmacist. Many of you know me from my years at the Rite Aid here on the island.

With fewer pharmacies now serving Coronado, access has become harder — long lines, limited options, and challenges for seniors and families who need timely care.

That’s why I’m opening Crown Coast Pharmacy — an independent, locally owned pharmacy dedicated to restoring convenient access, personalized service, and strong community support.

Where We Are Now

We have the vision, the business plan, and a location. To secure the lease and begin renovations, licensing, and setup, we need your help to take the next step.

Why Your Support Matters

Starting a community pharmacy requires significant upfront costs. Your donations will help cover:

• Lease costs to secure the Coronado location

• Renovations to create a safe, welcoming space

• Licensing and compliance fees

• Early-stage setup and operating expenses

With your support, we can move from plans to reality and bring back the local care Coronado deserves.
