Keli - CRNP
I began my journey into healthcare after graduating from the University of Kentucky with a BS degree in Kinesiology.
My goal was to work in a position that could make a positive impact on the health of those that I was fortunate to provide care. As a physical therapy aide- aiming towards becoming a Physical Therapist-it was very satisfying assisting in a patient’s physical rehabilitation.
With an intense passion to be more involved in an individual’s overall health and well-being I redirected my career path into the nursing field.
As a registered nurse and then with achieving a Masters degree in nursing and Board Certification as a Nurse Practitioner I have twelve years experience specializing in Oncology care in the two largest and most respected Health Systems in Western Pennsylvania. It is extremely rewarding to care for and comfort patients dealing with all types of cancer including those involving large tumors, renal, bladder, prostate and testicular. It has been awesome to now have the opportunity to use my background and daily experience in phlebotomy, infusions, injections and compassion and applying it in the exciting and progressive fields of facial esthetics and TMJ Disorders. Learning and training under world leaders and educators in these fields using cutting-edge materials and techniques is the next incredible step in my healthcare journey.
Beth - RN
I received my nursing degree at the Western Pennsylvania School of Nursing in 1987. I have been a registered nurse for 38 years and have worked in a variety of healthcare settings including; medical surgical, home health, and oncology. I have had extensive experience in providing specialty services in wound care, phlebotomy, central lines, infusions and transfusions.
Throughout my years as a registered nurse I have been intricately involved with patient diagnosis ,assessment and management of patient symptoms. My passion as part of a healthcare team is for providing quality, patient centered care and being mindful of patient preferences and specific needs. While working in oncology I became more focused on symptom management for patients in pain. I am a strong advocate for providing emotional support and care for patients that experience acute or chronic pain related to their diagnosis. This has motivated me to become involved in the care and management of patients having similar pain issues with TMJ-related disorders. I am excited to join and share the focus of the Pittsburgh TMJ and Facial Pain team in using innovative and cutting edge therapies to alleviate pain and improve function and quality of life in tho care of their patients.
