  • Family Nurse Practitioner
Kelsey R O'Connell

I grew up in Maine and earned my degree in Nursing at University of Southern Maine. After working as a bedside nurse and travel nurse, I moved to New York City and found my love for working with children as a pediatric oncology/hematology nurse at Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital. My experience working with pediatrics influenced me to go back to school to earn my Master's Degree as a Family Nurse Practitioner at Southern New York University.

After some time practicing as a pediatric primary care provider in New York, I took the opportunity to move back to Maine and provide pediatric health care to the Maine communities I grew up in.

I am passionate about providing the best pediatric healthcare to all the children in Maine, no matter their background, citizenship status, or affluence. I stand firmly that every child in Maine deserves our very best and will advocate for my patients whole heartedly to the best of my ability.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring Maine's trails, visiting with friends and family and spending time with my adorable bulldog, Bronx.
