Rob Standridge is an American pharmacy owner and politician who has served in the Oklahoma Senate since his election in 2012.

Early life

Standridge sold newspapers as a boy, worked as an emergency medical technician in 1985 and operated a landscaping company until his graduation from the University of Oklahoma in 1993 with a bachelor's degree in pharmacy.[1]

In 1995, he purchased a small pharmacy in Blanchard, Oklahoma and expanded the pharmacy into an interactive online pharmacy.[1] In 2005, it was transformed into a pharmacy that specialized in juveniles and the mentally disabled.[1]
