Pharmacy Leadership Spotlight: Andrew Wilcox

by Tyler Albright and Samantha Lewiston, 2021 PharmD Candidates

"Andrew Wilcox, Chief of Pharmacy at the William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital (Madison VA), is an integral part of the pharmacy leadership community both in Madison and across the state of Wisconsin. Andrew came to UW-Madison as an undergraduate with a passion for healthcare and a goal of giving something back. At student orientation, Andrew spoke with the UW-Madison School of Pharmacy advisor, Joann Pritchett, and began attending pre-pharmacy club meetings, which grew into a leadership role within the organization. Andrew then applied for and became part of the first Doctor of Pharmacy class at the UW-Madison School of Pharmacy. While in the pharmacy program, he became a decentralized pharmacy technician at UW Hospital and was exposed to different roles within pharmacy. Working with students, residents, and pharmacists opened his eyes to potential pharmacy opportunities and was formative in determining the direction of his future career path. During pharmacotherapy skills lab, Andrew became impressed with the knowledge and scope of practice of the Madison VA residents and decided to pursue a VA residency."
