Commitment to Patient-Centered Care

“Being a medication therapy management pharmacist allows me to work closely with patients to help them achieve their health goals as well as develop an understanding on how each medication serves a purpose to help them achieve those goals. Working in specialty clinics allows me to serve as a bridge in care between patient’s specialty providers and primary care providers to ensure continuity of care across the system. I thoroughly enjoy being a part of a healthcare team that prioritizes individualized patient care.”
