Why NYP? I chose NewYork-Presbterian because of the multi-site rotation opportunities, diverse patient population, and ability to train with highly accomplished clinical pharmacists. I wanted to pursue a residency that would provide me with the opportunity to be challenged and develop skills to become a clinical pharmacist.

Research Project: Impact of Minocycline Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) on Stenotrophomonas maltophilia infection outcomes
Why NYP? I chose NYP for several reasons. My strong interest in infectious diseases made it a great fit, especially with the range of interesting and complex cases they handle. I also liked the idea of working at different locations and interacting with a diverse patient population. From the very first info session I attended, it was clear that NYP really values its residents. That’s something I was definitely looking for in a residency program. Even though residency can be tough, it’s great to know I’ll have awesome mentors, RPD/RPC, and preceptors to support me. I’m looking forward to an exciting year ahead!
