Why did you choose the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital residency program?
I chose this program because of the opportunities to complete rotations in my area of interest while also exploring new areas of pediatric pharmacy. What set JDCH apart from other programs was the emphasis the preceptors put on teaching and the overall environment of the residency program. Every member of the pharmacy team truly cares about my success and is willing to help in any way possible to assist in reaching my goals inside and out of the hospital.
