Kelsie A. Kelly, MD, MPH

Professional Background

I have a variety of interests as a Family Medicine physician, however my areas of focus are residency education and the care of women and children. I completed all my training through KUMC, including medical school, MPH and residency training. After residency, I stayed on as faculty in the Department of Family Medicine andamp; Community Health where I have been involved in resident training ever since. I started as core residency faculty and have found myself in the Program Director role since Dec 2017. During this time I completed a faculty development fellowship through a Loyola/University of Chicago program in 2013-14 and the National Institute for Program Director Development fellowship in 2016-2017.

As a practicing Family Medicine physician, I provide care to patients of all ages, but I particularly enjoy providing pregnancy care services and pediatric care. I have had many roles to support my clinical interest, including having been the medical director for our prenatal safety net clinic, Maternity Director for the Residency Program, and now co-faculty for the Birth Equity Scholars Track program. Along the lines of women's health, I have participated in the transitions of care of women with Turner Syndrome from the pediatric to the adult setting by being the primary care physician for this population. I helped establish collaboration among multiple disciplines, including Audiology, Cardiology, Endocrinology and Psychology. I enjoy team collaboration in any aspect of patient care or medical education training.

Research

Overview

My research interests align with my professional interests. Specifically, I have areas of interest in simulation in residency training, interprofessional work as it relates to medical education, faculty development, and transitions of care within my panel of patients with Turner's Syndrome. One goal I have with research is to use this as a tool to enhance the experience of our medical learners, incorporating residents and medical students is important.
