Ben Enriquez

Position title: PGY-1 Ambulatory Care Resident- Madison VA

Email: benjoshua.enriquez@va.gov

I enjoy staying active by biking/running around Madison or playing soccer at the West Fields by the School of Pharmacy. In my free time, I also like trying new restaurants. Someday, I hope to work as a psychiatric pharmacist in an outpatient clinic. Farther down the line, I would be interested in possibly becoming an RPD. I currently don’t have any pets but I would love to have Shiba Inu one day. My favorite season is fall and I’m excited for all the fun fall activities to come!

Hi my name is Lauren Collier and I am a PGY1 ambulatory care resident at the Madison VA! In my free time I enjoy biking, hiking, and going to breweries. Recently, I have started baking with sourdough. I am from Iowa so have been loving exploring Madison. My career interests are in ambulatory care, specifically in geriatrics. In the future I hope to work in a geriatric-focused clinic.

Hi my name is Megan Sotebeer and I am a PGY1 ambulatory care resident at the Madison VA! I went to pharmacy school at Creighton University in Omaha Nebraska. My pharmacy interest areas include primary care, diabetes, geriatrics, and women’s health and I am still exploring others during residency as well. Outside of residency I enjoy trying new coffee shops and restaurants in Madison. I also love to spend time outdoors and love to paddle board. Most recently I am going to start trying to make sourdough! Excited to be a NPM and happy to connect with any students!
