The story behind the nation's largest correctional pharmacy provider begins in 1970 when pharmacists Gilbert and Joan Zilner purchase Diamond Drugs, a corner drug store located in the quaint community of Indiana, Pennsylvania. The Zilner's little drug store at 639 Philadelphia Street filled prescriptions for local residents and even a few nearby long-term care communities.
They also sold an assortment of medical supplies. Not much would change in the ensuing decade. Nineteen eighty-three, however, was a pivotal year. The Zilners moved the flagship drug store across Philadelphia Street to a roomier, more visible storefront. And that year also saw Diamond submit it's first-ever bid to provide pharmacy services to a correctional facility.

I have become skeptical of the monthly invoices Diamond Pharmacy sends. They continue to show older prescription transactions that were already paid. Confusing invoices. 8/26/2021 addition to review: two months after Diamond responded to this Google review, Diamond continues to send confusing invoices that include transactions from prior month already paid.

This company doesn’t pay the people what they are worth at all. It’s sad because there are amazing group of people there but they don’t recognize there worth. These people that work there go above and beyond for this company but yet they pay you pennies. I hope they will realize that you can go anywhere to work now for like 15 or 16$ but yet they can’t even give the workers that….. get it together and start showing these workers there worth because I was there for 7 years and have yet to see it. Diamond give the workers what they are worth……
