Description
Lana B. Hareez was born in Kuwait City, Kuwait, then raised in Charlotte, N.C. She received a Doctor of Pharmacy degree from UNC Chapel Hill, School of Pharmacy. She then completed 2 post-graduate residency programs. She completed a pharmacy practice residency at the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and a geriatrics specialty pharmacy residency at the Durham VA Medical Center in conjunction with Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C. She is currently providing ambulatory care services in asthma, smoking cessation, and internal medicine clinics and Mt. Sinai St. Luke’s in Manhattan. In this practice setting, she serves as preceptor for sixth-year Pharm.D. candidates during their advanced ambulatory rotation as well as mentors Pharmacy Residents. She is a member of the Pharmacy Practice department at LIU Pharmacy and teaches in the pharmacotherapeutics series on several disease states. She serves on several committees such as the faculty including the awards committee and the scholastic committee just to name a few. She served as the faculty co-adviser for Lambda Kappa Sigma Pharmacy Fraternity. Her research interests include clinical management of chronic disease states. In her free time outside of pharmacy, she enjoys philanthropic activities in the community, running, taking advantage of all the arts that New York City has to offer and spending as much time as possible with her husband and family.
Specialties
My interests related to scholarship and research principally align with ambulatory care encompassing chronic disease state management. The focus of my work will continue to be largely in the form of case reporting, review analysis and investigations in the areas associated with ambulatory care as they relate to my practice. Additionally, I am interested heavily in the concept of inter-professional education and the effects on clinical outcomes and education.
