At the May 2019 General Body Meeting, Dr. Albert Chester II shared information about his success within the pharmaceutical industry. In 2017, he opened The Capstone Institute, a post-secondary career training school which focusing on training students to become pharmacy technicians.  In less than two years, The Capstone Institute has trained over 40 students.

In 2018, he opened New Town Pharmacy, located on the Northwest side of Jacksonville. The pharmacy is an independently owned community/retail business and provides a patient centered service, catering to all the healthcare needs of the individual ranging from free medication consultations, free immunizations, and free medication delivery.

Dr. Chester is a native of Jacksonville, a graduate of Florida A&M University and is also the grandson to Vincent “Red” Taylor who was one of the first black bus drivers to operate in the city. In February 2019, Dr. Chester accepted his candidacy to run for Congress in 2020 to serve for District 5.

Thank you to Dr. Chester for attending and inspiring the members of COMTO Jacksonville.
