Cancer Specialists of North Florida
Ashleigh Cheikelard, PharmD
The student had this to say about Dr. Cheikelard:
“As a CIPPE rotation, the only expectation or requirement is exposure to a community pharmacy setting. Ashleigh and the other pharmacists at CSNF were aware of my retail background, and worked hard to make sure that I still had a valuable learning experience while on my rotation. I did still work in their retail site, and was made familiar with their procedures and systems, but I learned a lot more by being able to observe things that are not typical of a standard retail rotation. I greatly appreciate the opportunities that they have afforded me, and the experience that I have gained as a result.“
Brief bio or Site description
We are a medically integrated pharmacy with a focus on treating the whole patient. We strive to assist patients in achieving their therapeutic goals by helping to remove barriers, whether those barriers are access to care, finances, tolerability, anything!
What is your or your sites philosophy on educating students and/or providing pharmacy services?
We customize each student’s experience based on their incoming experience and future career goals. We like to show students the many different areas where we utilize pharmacists, some of which they may have never considered as a potential pharmacist career.
What is a fun fact about you or the site?
My students are able to see so much while on rotation with me because I am fortunate to work with a compassionate team of pharmacists. Each pharmacist happily invests in our students by sharing their career path and offering an opportunity to shadow their unique position.
