Dear Prospective Pharmacy Resident,

Thank you for your interest in the University of Utah Health's Pharmacy Residency Program. For over thirty years, we've been committed to advancing patient care through our pharmacy residency programs.

The mission of the University of Utah Health is to serve the people of Utah and beyond by continually improving individual and community health and quality of life. This is achieved through excellence in patient care, education, and research; each is vital to our mission and each makes the others stronger. Combined with our vision of being a patient-centered health care organization distinguished by collaboration, excellence, leadership, and respect, U of U Health's Department of Pharmacy Services, and Pharmacy Residency serve as key contributors. Our residents and staff make us better and allow us to care for our patients, train tomorrow's caregivers, and push practice to the next levels.

We are proud to call over 400+ graduates University of Utah Health Pharmacy Resident Alumni. Our graduates pushed us to be better, and advance practice, while fostering life-long relationships. As you explore our residency pages and questions arise, please reach out to me, or to any of our residency leadership, or residents. Thank you again for your interest in the University of Utah Health's Pharmacy Residency Programs.

Sincerely, Kavish
