Liberty Health is more than just a company. It’s a North Carolina family that answered a calling to serve others with compassion and quality care. The values, traditions and trust established by the McNeills at a small-town pharmacy in the 1870s continue to be passed down from generation to generation. Liberty Health Principal Owners Ronnie and Sandy McNeill are now the fourth generation of McNeills immersed in the healthcare industry. They grew up working in their family’s pharmacy in Whiteville like their father, their grandfather and their great grandfather. They grew up serving families, who for generations, trusted and depended on them for medicine, advice and care.
The McNeills and the Liberty Family of Companies proudly continue that tradition of service and care to this day. Liberty Health’s mission is to offer the communities we serve a complete senior care continuum, close to home and family, with support from a care team they can trust.
