"We had Casey speak for our Annual Convention. Casey's message was everything we needed to hear. His positive attitude and will to never give up were uplifting and inspiring for our entire audience. He made you think about life in general and about how little things we find difficult to do are nothing to sweat about. Casey received a well deserved Standing Ovation from our audience and stayed afterward to speak to all who wanted at the convention. I would recommend Casey over and over again."
- Dani Hennen, Event Coordinator, Minnesota Association of Farm Mutual Insurance Companies
Casey O’Brien was the Keynote for our state-wide Health-System Pharmacy Conference. The audience was comprised of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians who work in health care such as hospitals, clinics, academia, and other settings. Casey’s positive attitude and zeal for life is inspiring. He had us laughing and crying all at the same time. Despite all he has gone through, his prime goal is to take that experience and share it with others so that they might persevere and succeed despite adversity. The conference center was abuzz with attendee comments about Casey. Casey easily related to the attendees and incorporated his interactions with his pharmacists at the Cancer Center and the importance of the pharmacist/patient interaction. Anyone can benefit from his experience and instruction for dealing with adversity or helping those going through adversity. We would highly recommend Casey O’Brien as a speaker. Our organization was grateful for his message and wish him all the best.”
— Trish Wegner, Vice President, Illinois Council of Health-System Pharmacists
“Casey was the keynote speaker to kickoff our annual RyanGivesBack week for our 750 person regional team. He absolutely rocked the kickoff! There wasn’t a dry eye, and he fired everyone up for a week of selfless and purposeful giving. He even sent a grand finale video from TCF Stadium to call for the final push we needed to raise the most in our 40 year history the event. Casey is a remarkable individual, his perseverant positive attitude is contagious, and everyone at Ryan is so grateful to know him and have had his support!!”

“I wanted to let you know that I received great feedback on our keynote speaker, Casey O’Brien, at MSHP’s Midyear Clinical Meeting. Casey was able to understand and connect with the audience which consisted of health-system pharmacists and pharmacy students. Casey noted the importance that the relationship between himself, the patient, and the pharmacist played during his stays in the hospital. It was a very moving presentation, and Casey’s positive attitude provided the audience with ways to deal with adversity.

One of the best we have had.” The audience truly enjoyed and benefited from Casey’s presentation”.
