is pharmacist considered a professional job?
Question:
Answers:
A Pharmacist is absolutely a professional! While a Pharmacist is licensed and can hold a Doctorate in Pharmacy (PharmD) they cannot diagnose, they cannot perform physical exams, they cannot order tests, technically they don't see patients. They can advise about medications, they can make substitutions, they have the last word about meds, and a clinical Pharmacist (hospital) can write orders for meds.
Here's an idea of annual salaries in thousands:
Pharm. Intern ---- 32.4
Pharm. 1 ---------- 75.3
Pharm. 2 ---------- 79.5
Clinical Pharm. --- 80.9
Pharm. Mgr. ------- 93.8
Regional Pharm. Mgr. -- 103.7

Yes, I'm a health care worker in Florida and our pharmacist start at around $30K per year and we require that you have at least a 2 year degree (but a 4 year degree is better) and 2 years experience prior to employment with us.
Of course it is a professional job! O yes. Its a very good job.
Yes.
yes it is
Yes, pharmacist is a very professional job. One of my good friends is a grad student working towards his degree for pharmacy. He's working like nobody's business at some of the hardest classes I've seen anyone take. Pharmacists make great money, 6 figures is easily obtainable, and are rigorously tested for certifications before they can distribute meds. My data is from the US. It's very professional, requires just as much education, and is relatively high-paying. However I think the reason you don't hear about it is because it's very un-exciting. It's a boring job and not highly respected like a Doctor. No one wants their kids doing something dull I guess.
A pharmacist is a very professional job! You have to be really smart to be a pharmacist, and if you want your doctorate, it is a 7 year program. I'm not sure on their exact salary figures, but they are definitely on the high end of the pay scale.
yes
yes its a professional job and the difference bewteen a pharmacist and a doctor is quite a lot. They have the basic training of a doctor but are more chemistry orientated as to how to make up medicines and teh general chemistry as to how they work in relation to the human body and with other medicines, In the UK I know pharmacists who earn about £30,000 per year. Pharmacist's starting salary is about 90K (depending on where you work) Mostly, they have to know about interactions of drugs with each other. It most certainly is a professional job. It takes a special university degree and at least two very tough exams.
I wish I was a pharmacist!
Yes. it's a professional job, & u have to know ur subject well just as in any other job.
Yes, being a pharmacist is a professional job. Anything that you do and get payed for makes you a professional. if you babysit and get payed for it you are a professional babysitter! Yes it is a professional job, but it doesn't rate very high because the pay much less than the other carrers you stated. The average annual income for a pharmacy tech in S. Florida is about $23-25,000 a year and that is barely enough to get by.
