Hi. My name is Michael Lichardi, and I got my doctor of pharmacy here at FDU, and now I'm a critical care unit based pharmacist.
I chose FDU because of their accelerated three plus four year pharmacy degree program, which allowed me to get into the field faster, and they also offered great financial support through tuitions and grants that made the decision really easy for me and my family.
FDU really exceeded my expectations by giving me the supportive environment I needed to become the effective clinician I am today. There's so many diverse career paths you can take in pharmacy, and I've always known that I wanted to do critical care medicine from a young age, and FDU allowed me to tailor my clinical rotations to really explore that further and solidify that. That is what I wanted to do with my career.
The professors here at FDU aren't just academic, they're also clinical. I still work with one of my professors at the hospital I work at today. FDU changed my world by showing me that my career dreams were possible at FDU, I seized the moment and it changed my world.
