Why University of Iowa Health Care

I chose UIHC for many reasons including the welcoming and supportive environment the pharmacists embodied during Midyear and the interview. This program also has a vast array of rotation options along with various other learning activities including precepting students, longitudinal research, and rotation-specific projects. I knew this program would allow me to become a well-rounded clinical pharmacist and I'm happy to say that it has not disappointed thus far!

Favorite thing to do in Iowa City so far:

All the local coffee shops, breweries, and biking/walking trails! There are endless activities to do as well including farmers markets, block parties, and Hawkeye football games.
