Emily Hurley, MD

Emily Hurley, MD, is trained in obstetrics and gynecology, and completed a three-year fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility at UC Health. Passionate about womens health, Dr. Hurley knew from a young age she wanted to pursue a career in the medicine. During her fourth year of medical school at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Dr. Hurley worked with reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialists at UC Health and found her calling. Dr. Hurleys advocacy for educating and counseling women on their reproductive health and fertility options goes beyond her clinical work with her patients. In 2018, she published, Postponing Childbearing and Fertility Preservation in Young Professional Women. In the study, young womens awareness of ovarian reserve testing and oocyte cryopreservation (egg freezing) were evaluated. The results found that when women were aware their fertility was declining, they were more interested in oocyte cryopreservation. The study further reinforced women should be both counseled and educated on possible options to preserve their fertility at a young age. Dr. Hurley chose to join the experts at UC Health, embracing their high standards of patient care, while training the next generation of physicians. From her experience, UC Health is comprised of some of the most knowledgeable and trustworthy staff, dedicated to the care of patients and families.
