Located in the main lobby of Strong Memorial Hospital, we serve patients of Strong Memorial Hospital, Wilmot Cancer Center, Golisano’s Children Hospital and more. The goal of our internship program is to fully immerse students in our daily workflows in order to expose them to a wide variety of pharmacy experiences.
