Emily A. O’Reilly, Pharm.D., BCACP, CSP, has been with UofL Health for five years. Emily’s career with UofL Health started with a postgraduate year 2 ambulatory care pharmacy residency.
Once she completed her residency, Emily worked PRN in UofL Health – Outpatient Pharmacy Services before transitioning into a full-time position with Specialty Pharmacy Services. In this role, Emily split her time between caring for patients in UofL Health – Specialty Pharmacy and UofL Health – UofL Hospital – Multiple Sclerosis Clinic where she initiated pharmacy services.
Emily now serves as the clinical coordinator for Specialty Pharmacy accreditation and outcomes. In her current role, Emily monitors compliance and manages the UofL Health – UofL Hospital – Specialty Pharmacy patient management program.

Emily enjoys the patients she serves, the people she works with and the work that she gets to do. Just like it is outlined in the vision of UofL Health, Emily and her team “strive to provide a culture of exceptional care.” Because she is part of a team that works toward this vision, Emily says it is easy to show up to work with a smile on her face, ready to help patients.
The fact that UofL Health is a leader in health care and a desirable place to work is something that Emily really admires, and she would love to see this continue. Her goal for UofL Hospital – Specialty Pharmacy is to help other specialty pharmacies grow in order to improve the lives of people around the nation.
Each day, Emily works to live out the mission of UofL Health by forming meaningful relationships with patients and implementing new Specialty Pharmacy initiatives and disease state management protocols.
