Critical Care Residency, Christiana Care Health System (Wilmington, DE)
Pharm.D., Ohio Northern University

Dr. Fellows received his Pharm.D. from Ohio Northern University in 2009. After graduation, Fellows completed a PGY-1 residency at St. Rita’s Medical Center in Lima, Ohio and a PGY-2 critical care residency with an emphasis on emergency medicine at Christiana Care Health System in Newark, Delaware. Upon completion of his second residency, he began work as a clinical pharmacist in emergency medicine at Christiana Hospital. During his time in the emergency department, he focused on reducing hospital length of stay and readmissions as part of an interdisciplinary admission team. He also served as an APPE preceptor for several schools of pharmacy and guest lectured for Arcadia University’s physician assistant program.

In the summer of 2014, Fellows joined the Wegmans School of Pharmacy faculty and began working with patients in an outpatient setting at Anthony Jordan Health Center.

Dr. Fellows’ research interests include student well-being and pharmacist’s impact on improving patient outcomes. His primary professional focus is advocacy for the evolution of pharmacy services to better support patients and health-systems.
