About Me

Emily Lalor, AGACNP-BC, is an Advanced Practice Nurse Practitioner (APNP) at City of Hope^® Cancer Center Atlanta. A critical care and emergency medicine specialist, Lalor works closely with patients at City of Hope to manage and treat both acute and chronic conditions related to their cancer or its treatments, including reviewing test results, prescribing medications and offering compassionate care.

Since beginning her career as a nurse in 2010, Lalor has found working with cancer patients to be particularly rewarding.

“I truly loved caring for oncology patients during my time at the bedside in the intensive care unit,” she says. “I have always been in awe of our patients’ fighting spirt, and that encouraged me not only to stay at City of Hope as a nurse, but to further my education so that I could continue to serve them as a nurse practitioner.”

In addition to her career as an APNP, Lalor is board-certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center in adult gerontology acute care and has wide-ranging experience in medical, surgical, pulmonary and critical care units. She earned her nursing degree at Mercer University in Atlanta, Georgia, then completed her master’s degree in nursing and in the field of adult-gerontology acute care nurse practitioner at Walden University in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

“My goal is to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to meet the urgent needs of my patients during their course of treatment while at City of Hope,” she says.

Outside of City of Hope, Lalor enjoys traveling, gardening and spending time with her husband and three sons.

Patient reviews: The patient ratings and comments on this page are obtained from an external Press Ganey^® outpatient survey provided to all eligible City of Hope patients within one to two weeks of their treatment occurrence. Raw data from the answers to the survey questions about our physicians are calculated by Press Ganey into a one- to five- star rating. In the spirit of transparency, all patient comments are posted as written by the patient, whether they are positive or negative. We only exclude comments if they are deemed to be slanderous or libelous, contain profanity or vulgar language, or do not relate to the patient's experience with the doctor involved. As a result, the comments are the views and opinions of the patients surveyed and are not endorsed by, and may not necessarily reflect the opinion of, City of Hope.
