Why University of Iowa Health Care

I chose the University of Iowa because of the unique and robust clinical opportunities that allow pharmacists to practice at the top of their license. The preceptors are passionate about their work and are supportive in helping learners succeed. I was also drawn to the strong relationship with the college of pharmacy which allows for growth in providing didactic education and precepting skills. I knew this program would be the best place for me to explore my interests and grow as a clinical pharmacist.

Favorite thing to do in Iowa City so far:

Anything Hawkeye sports, exploring breweries, food trucks, and hiking/running trails.
