BOCA RATON, FL, March 26, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Nishika Patel has been included in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Dr. Patel received her Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Roseman University College of Pharmacy, an accelerated 3 year doctoral program. She went on to complete her residency training at Charleston Area Medical Center and subsequently took a position as a critical care pharmacy specialist at Boca Raton Regional Hospital, where she remains today.
Dr. Patel is dual board certified in pharmacotherapy and critical care. She also holds a teaching certification from the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and precepts residents and students on rotation in the medical intensive care unit. There she works alongside other members of an interdisciplinary team comprised of physicians, nurses, and respiratory therapists to optimize pharmacological care for critically ill patients. In addition to these activities, she is also a chairperson for the hospital's critical care committee and the coordinator for the pharmacy residency program.
In conjunction with her work at Boca Raton Regional Hospital, Dr. Patel contributes her time and knowledge to the healthcare community as an editor and author for Critical Care Now, a free open access medical education website. She also enjoys being a social media educator for young practitioners on her Instagram page @dr.scriptsndrips.
Though her career thus far has been suffused with highlights, she considers one of her biggest achievements to be facing her battle with lupus, a diagnosis she received at a young age. It was because of her experiences as a lupus patient that she understood early on the grand impact that medications could have on peoples' lives. Today, she uses these personal experiences as well as her professional expertise in critical care to provide the finest care possible for her patients and encourages new practitioners to do the same.
