For those that have already completed a PGY2 Hem/Onc, currently working as a pharmacist in this specialty or planning to in the future... are you planning to get a BCPS until you qualify for the BCOP, just wait to get the BCOP, or maintain both board certifications?
I realize the BCPS is no small project but while my general practice residency is still semi fresh in my brain, I have been considering getting certified in pharmacotherapy.. just in case I don't get a job in Oncology right away (yes i know I still have to wait a year or so after my pgy2) or end up doing something completely different in the future (never know what might happen). I honestly dont know if I could even manage to study for the BCPS with the PGY2 starting anyway!
I just finished my PGY1 and started a PGY2 Heme/Onc residency... anyone else in this boat feel free to respond! Thanks for your input
