On staff since March 2017

"I am proud to be a Physician Assistant. The core of my practice is patient and family centered care. In dealing with issues related to nephrology in pediatrics, the medicine is complex, the challenges families face are multifaceted and the benefits of great care are immeasurable when you see a child who is thriving despite their illness."

Biography
My name is Kelsey Pearson. I am originally from a town outside of Chicago, Illinois. I completed my Bachelors of Science, in Kinesiology(Movement Sciences) at University of Illinois. The major appealed to be because of the strong science/anatomy foundations it is based upon. I then went on to complete my Masters of Medical Science at Midwestern University in Glendale, Arizona. During which, I spent time volunteering to provide medical care to the homeless population in Phoenix, performed pre-sport physicals on high school students and organized a weekly yoga class for the inpatient psychiatric ward at the Maricopa County Hospital. My first professional position was as an Acute Care Physician Assistant working at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, MD. I cared for liver, kidney and pancreas recipients after their transplant and during other inpatient admissions. I am excited to begin my career working in pediatric nephrology at Seattle Children's and continue to use my knowledge base from transplant to care for children and adolescents with transplants, as well as, patients with kidney disease.
