023 Pharmacist: Martin Eguridu Part I

<p>Martin Eguridu is a passionate, positive, and motivated pharmacist with big dreams. He graduated from Medway School of Pharmacy in 2015 and started his pharmacy career as a community pharmacist with Lloyd's Pharmacy. He was promoted to Pharmacy Manager within one year of qualifying, an achievement I believe he definitely deserves! He is clearly passionate about his career and demonstrates great leadership qualities at such a young age. Martin provides us with insider tips and advice for achieving your professional goals. A great episode for pharmacy students and newly qualified pharmacists.</p> <p>He has recently embarked on a new journey as a Primary Care Network Pharmacist which he has been enjoying thoroughly so far. I hope to record a second episode with him to find out how he transitioned into this role.</p> <p>Martin gets involved with lots of learning opportunities outside of his work life and has gained valuable skills from these experiences.
