Why University of Iowa Health Care

I chose the University of Iowa Health Care because of the diverse rotation opportunities, the weekend staffing structure, and the PEPPR program. In addition to the academic offerings, everyone I met during my interview was really welcoming and supportive to me and my co-applicants. Finally, I knew this program would be the best place for me to learn and grow into a competent, professional clinical pharmacist ready to thrive at the conclusion of my PGY1.

Favorite thing to do in Iowa City so far

Try new restaurants with my co-residents, run on the bike trails, and go to all the local farmers markets and block parties!
