Welcome from the Program Director

Thank you for your interest in the PGY-2 Internal Medicine Pharmacy Residency Program at Bon Secours St. Francis Downtown. Our site has a multitude of opportunities to care for internal medicine patients, including a new graduate medical education (GME) program, in which the resident will be able to collaborate and interact with medical residents and their teaching teams.

Bon Secours St. Francis Hospital Downtown was founded in 1932 as a not-for-profit faith-based health system. Our hospital is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains within driving distance to Atlanta, Charlotte and Columbia. We provide a wide variety of health care to the Greenville area, including emergency services, heart care, heart surgery, oncology, bone marrow transplantation, orthopedic services and neurology. Our pharmacy services include decentralized services to many clinical areas including critical care, internal medicine, emergency medicine, oncology, cardiology, neurology and pulmonology.

Our preceptors are energetic, passionate and teaching-oriented. Residents will complete projects to improve patient care and our medication use processes. They will also be involved in precepting pharmacy students. Each resident will experience leading and actively presenting their research at local hospital and system-wide committees.

Please explore the website to learn more about our program. We look forward to the possibility of meeting and working with you in the future.
