The hospital I work at has specialized staff and equipment, I myself work in the Pharmaceutical wing.
Oh are you a pharmacist? Fortunately I don't require any medications myself.
Yes I am! I am an important member of the health care team, I have to know more about meds than the doctors prescribing them?
Of course, you need to make sure there are no contraindications at all that. I heard pharmacy school is very intense.
Yep, it's a 5 year process to attain a master of pharmacy degree, but by then most just call you a doctor of pharmacy.
That's even a year longer than regular medical school I think. Do you enjoy your work?
I do, I get to learn the mechanisms of different drugs and their actions and I get to help patients by explaining their uses and side effects.
I imagine it's very biochemistry intensive. Did you enjoy learning about all the chemistry and what not?
