When you’re a resident, you’re part of the Geisinger family. That means you’ll collaborate with providers on site and throughout the Geisinger system. As a clinical pharmacist, you will practice at the top of your license to contribute in acute care, ambulatory care, specialty pharmacy and research. Your curriculum is customized to help you with personal and professional goals.
