Why WVU Medicine: I chose WVU Medicine for the diverse range of clinical experiences and teaching opportunities with the School of Pharmacy.  I knew I would be challenged at WVU Medicine but would have the support of our dedicated preceptors along the way! This program pushes residents to become the best pharmacist they can while also supporting personal wellbeing and growth. From the very beginning, the culture of the pharmacy department and hospital made me feel at home.
