Emily Brackett, PharmD, is originally from Aiken, South Carolina. She received her Doctor of Pharmacy from the University of South Carolina after earning her bachelor’s degree in biological sciences from Clemson.
She chose to pursue a residency at Prisma Health for the “family feel” she developed while working in the outpatient pharmacy for several years. After having clinical rotations at Richland, she saw the value preceptors place on student learning and interprofessional collaboration.
Currently, Brackett’s professional interest is internal medicine. She enjoys watching Clemson football, playing Nerf guns with her nephews, and working out at Barre3 with her sister in her free time.
