Our Story

For more than 90 years, Collins has been more than a name on a sign—it’s been a promise to care for people like family. What began as a small community pharmacy in Bridgeport, Connecticut, has grown into Collins Medical Solutions, a trusted hub for medical equipment, accessibility services, and ongoing support for homes across our region.

Where We Began

In 1931, Thomas P. Collins Sr. opened our doors with a simple philosophy: treat every customer with respect, attention, and compassion. Through wars, economic shifts, and generations of leadership, that philosophy never changed.

How We’ve Grown

Over the decades, we evolved from a neighborhood pharmacy into a comprehensive home medical solutions provider. We introduced durable medical equipment, expanded into accessibility services, added resupply programs, and today, we offer technology‑driven tools to help people stay safe and independent at home.

Back to Our Roots

In 2025, we returned to Bridgeport, bringing our operations full circle while embracing a digital‑first future. From our new facility, we continue the legacy of personal service, innovative solutions, and community care that began nearly a century ago.
