Dr. Omolola Adeoye-Olatunde - community pharmacy to professor and health equity researcher

It's a wrap!

Season one of Career Reconstituted has wrapped. I'm in the final lap of my job search as I've narrowed it down to THE WHAT and just need to figure out THE WHERE and THE HOW. Once the dream job comes to fruition, I'll pop back in with all the deets. Until then, bye friends. Stay tenacious out there.

Dr. Michelle Payan - clinical oncology pharmacist to co-founder and CEO of non-profit organization that provides holistic care to cancer patients

Michelle is so thoughtful about her career path. This is what we all should do! She was a clinical pharmacist in oncology for 20-years before she became disenchanted with the US healthcare system (metrics, money, etc) and saw a chasm in the care of patients with cancer. She took a masters course and dove right in. She is now the CEO and co-founder of Kairos Therapeutic Retreat, which provides holistic, integrative care (for free!!!) to patients who are living with the aftermath of cancer. Please check out her website and consider donating: http://kairoshealth.org/ This episode will drop on Monday (2/19/24) on You Tube, Apple Music, and Spotify. Please listen, get inspired...and leave a rating and review if you'd like.

Dr. Wilson Tam - Medication Therapy Management Pharmacist to Director of Sales Engineering

Dr. Wilson Tam started as a Medication Therapy Management intern and now works in Healthcare Technology as Director of Sales Engineering. He’s on the forefront of important sectors like specialty pharmacy, infusion companies, and information technology.  Wilson started his unique career path off with two things: 1) a professor who engaged him in important conversations and 2) an idea to answer a clinical question. In turn, those sparks created a chain of events that led him to wanting to solve the hardest problems in our field. I love this convo, please join us!

Dr. Omolola Adeoye-Olatunde - community pharmacy to professor and health equity researcher

I love this convo with Lola because we get deep really quick & talk about how race and racism affect healthcare outcomes. I knew I was in a safe space to go there because Lola is the founder-director of the Health Equity Research (or HER) lab. Furthermore, she and her team have worked with students to host over 100 health fairs where they administered 4,000 vaccines (and more). Lola breaks down terms, gives real life experiences, and talks about how to get into the work. Hope you join us and love this convo as much as I did. Here's the link to her paper that we discussed: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8079557/

Dr. Nicolas Georgiades - clinical pharmacist to MSL to tech entrepreneur

Nick figured out how to take the leap by fixing a problem he encountered in his previous role as an MSL. He made the solution into one company (PharmAccelorator) and joined forces on another one (PharmacoTalent). So now he runs a tech company, coaches pharmacists to become MSLs, and helps companies find good candidates. He has a lot of advice for pharmacists who are looking to join industry.
