Welcome to Neighborhood, Kellsey Medsger, PA-C! Kellsey is from Pittsburgh and has joined Neighborhood Health Center's internal/family medicine team as a physician assistant (PA). During PA school, Kellsey did a clinical rotation at busy, rural clinic where many patients lived outside a reasonable driving distance of medical specialists. As a result, they relied on their primary care provider for comprehensive and accessible care for a wide range of concerns. "That experience taught me the importance of building strong relationships with patients as a primary care provider, and doing our best to provide necessary support to meet all of a patient's needs," said Kellsey. #WelcometoNeighborhood
