Meet Our Student Pharmacist for July, Ping Zhu.

IMG_5386

We are so lucky to have two student pharmacists from The Ohio State University’s College of Pharmacy with us for the entire month of July. Both Ping and Calvin are fourth year students who will graduate in May 2017 and then go on to practice as pharmacists. In this posting, we’d like to introduce you to Ping Zhu.

Here is what Ping has to say about herself:

Hi, my name is Ping Zhu and I am a fourth year pharmacy student at The Ohio State University. I am excited to join Plain City Druggist for the month of July. I am interested in learning more about the operation of independent pharmacy, as well as gaining more knowledge about medications.

I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences (BSPS).

I want to be a pharmacist, because I enjoy the patient interactions and answering patients’ questions and concerns.

During my undergraduate college experience and while in pharmacy school, I have worked at CVS pharmacy.

After graduation, I want to stay in community pharmacy. I want to help patients achieve maximum benefits from their medication therapies so they can avoid going to the hospital for diseases that can be prevented. I also want to counsel patients on the use of over-the-counter (OTC) medications to prevent drug-drug interactions and the misuse of medications due to any confusion about the medications.

Outside of pharmacy, I enjoy trying different food and traveling.

I am excited about this opportunity. I believe I will learn a lot from this rotation. Please feel free to stop by and say hi or ask questions. I’d love to help!
