History: Arrow Alternative Care was selected in 2014 as one of the first medical marijuana facilities in the state of Connecticut to provide care for qualified medical marijuana patients. Angelo DeFazio, a registered pharmacist, and owner of Arrow Alternative Care’s parent organization, the Arrow Pharmacy, is a staunch supporter of providing medicine for his patient communities, and medical cannabis is another aspect of that passion. Assembling a team of highly educated pharmacists and medical marijuana specialists, Arrow Alternative opened in 2014 to create a center committed to the holistic health of their patients, with over decades of experience and compassionate care provided in a welcoming environment.
