This program offers the resident exposure to a variety of practice environments and experiences. The resident will have the flexibility to develop an “area of focus” during the 12-month program in oncology, pediatrics, critical care, or emergency medicine and engage in pharmacy initiatives within the Sutter Medical Center Sacramento enterprise. We have a strong desire to grow our future clinical pharmacy leaders and seek candidates whose long-term career plans align with our vision and mission.
