Why WVU Medicine: I chose to pursue WVU Medicine for an HSPAL residency because of how intentional our healthcare leaders were when building this program. There are endless opportunities to advance as a clinician and leader in healthcare practicing at an academic medical center that provides the highest level of care across the state. The passion of our preceptors and a multidisciplinary learning environment provide a variety of unique clinical and administrative learning experiences. The culture of the program and pharmacy team is one that I was enthusiastic to join!
