About our company

Music City Nuclear Pharmacy commenced operations in March 2005. It was founded by Allen B. Townsend, Jr.,Pharm.D., a 25 year veteran of the radiopharmacy industry. Townsend worked for Nuclear Pharmacy, Inc and its successors in increasingly responsible management positions for many years. After a life on the road, Townsend decided to form a new company in his own hometown, Nashville, Tennessee. The company was founded with just a few employees and a just few prescriptions per day. Over the past two years, MCNP has enjoyed substantial growth by providing excellent customer service, hands-on attention to detail on a daily basis, improved customer value and a myriad of innovative services. We are also an authorized local provider for the two premier heart imaging agents, Myoview* and Cardiolite*.

Music City can provide its services to an approximate 100 mile radius of Nashville.  We have strong relationships with all of the major manufacturers and belong to an independent pharmacy GPO, United Pharmacy Partners, Inc.  Belonging to this 100+ member pharmacy group allows us to participate in favorable purchasing contracts with all nuclear medicine suppliers. Subsequently, we have been able to pass these savings on to you. However, we still maintain our "hometown" character and make sure all your needs are met. Our focus is on you, the customer, not on a sales quota or a corporate budget. Music City truly appreciates and values every client! Please give us a call and let us prove ourselves to you.

New: ICANL Preparation Services Now Available

Music City Nuclear Pharmacy can now offer its customers expert ICANL preparation services. More and more insurance companies are requiring ICANL certification for processing their patient's claims and this service can be invaluable. MCNP utilizes a local expert to work directly with your department instead of a "voice on the phone." Also, MCNP's ICANL prep fees are a fraction of those being touted by large national companies. Your department will eventually need this certification and MCNP will be there to give you a hand.
