Dr. Goldberg decided to pursue pharmacy after taking a variety of science courses that ignited his interested while pursuing his B.S. in biology at Lander College of Arts & Sciences – Flatbush. “I really enjoyed being challenged by the complexity of the organic chemistries,” he said.

After a professor encouraged him to consider pharmacy, he began shadowing a clinical pharmacist at Lutheran Medical Center and realized pharmacy was the right career path for him. This choice was confirmed, he noted, when he met another student at Touro College of Pharmacy, Sigal, class of 2017, who would later become his wife. Long-term, Dr. Goldberg said he hopes to split his time between clinical and academic pharmacy.
