Clinical Associate Professor Introductory Experiential Education Director Phone: (401) 874-2320 | bferet@uri.edu A chance meeting with a classmate changed pharmacist Paul Lyman’s path from retirement to a second career, spanning 20 years, as a valued employee of the Bedford Veterans Administration Hospital and, fortunately for the students of MCPHS, a sought after ambulatory care preceptor. After a 27 year career as the owner of two successful independent pharmacies, Paul was ready to “kick back” and enjoy his retirement. Instead, Paul’s wife jokingly remarked that the kitchen was not big enough for the two of them, thus ending his dreams of retirement. While picking up a prescription, Paul reconnected with a classmate, the chief pharmacist at the Bedford VA Hospital, who was actively recruiting, and the rest is history. Paul has truly enjoyed being a preceptor and has humbly remarked, “I have learned more from the students than they have learned from me.” The students, however, have a different view. In 2008, Paul was voted the MCPHS Institutional Preceptor of the Year. Additionally, as one student stated “I loved this rotation. I didn’t want to leave. Paul Lyman is amazing. Where else do you have an opportunity to present at grand rounds!” The entire MCPHS community appreciates all you have done over the years for our students, Paul. You will be missed as a preceptor but we know you will remain a dear friend. We wish you the best as you finally begin your retirement at the end of the year. Maybe now, you will have enough spare time to enlarge your kitchen!
