Kaycee is a board-certified family nurse practitioner who practices at Alton Surgery. "When I was presented with the opportunity to join this specialty, I immediately jumped on it," Kaycee explains. "I knew this would be a great opportunity to use my skills and knowledge to see acute care patients as well as follow up with them in the clinic, giving the patient great continuity of care throughout their acute care problems." Kaycee provides clinical assessment of the need for surgical services, history and physical exams, medication review, post-operative clinical assessment including incision site management, and suture and staple removal. She is originally from northwest Iowa and moved to Illinois after graduating with her associates in nursing. She enjoys swimming, gardening and spending time with her husband and two children. Kaycee's practice is part of BJC Medical Group, a well-established, multi-specialty physician group.
