This American Pharmacists Month, we recognize Dr. Si Khanh Nguyen (LLUSP Class of 2007) and his work on behalf of pharmacy students and other pharmacists on his team.
"After graduating from pharmacy school, it took a while for me to find my footing. I bumped around here and there to find where my passion lies. Finally in 2011, I began practicing pharmacy steadily, but my role and responsibilities evolved. I started out as a staff pharmacist and worked my way to becoming a manager and finally a director.
Currently, I am the pharmacy director at Desert Valley Hospital in Victorville. I am a part of a team of 30+. No two days are ever the same. Something new is often thrown into the mix. I make sure that my team has the tools and support to do their best work.
What I enjoy doing the most is helping my team members find their passion or reignite their passion for pharmacy and helping them grow in their career and intellectual curiosity. The opportunity to help them succeed on their own terms is one of the most rewarding aspects of my job."
