Kaiser Permanente Georgia’s PGY2 Ambulatory Care Pharmacy Residency is a one year, ASHP-accredited program in the metro-Atlanta that prepares its residents to become advanced, skilled pharmacy practitioners who are qualified for a position as an ambulatory care clinical pharmacy specialist.

In addition to required core experiences, longitudinal experiences, and two block elective rotations, residents will present one continuing education program to the pharmacy department in the fall.

Why Georgia?

Our summers are definitely hot….   but nothing beats the autumn leaves in North Georgia, the mild winters with minimal snow or the blooming azaleas and cherry blossoms in the spring. 

Georgia truly has four seasons. 

Whether you enjoy hiking our Blue Ridge Mountains, watching the Braves or Falcons play, exploring our coastal islands, or discovering our history in Savannah, we hope Georgia is on your mind.
