Kaitlyn Keyser joined Family First Health in 2024. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the Reading Hospital School of Nursing and earned her Master of Science in Nursing with a Nurse Practitioner concentration from Walden University. We are excited to have Kaitlyn on board, helping to care for her own community in Columbia, PA.

Kaitlyn says, “Becoming a Family Nurse Practitioner allowed me to expand my knowledge and better serve those around me. My goal is to provide thoughtful, patient-centered care. When patients see me, they can expect a warm welcome, a listening ear, and a collaborative approach to their health. I believe education is a key part of wellness, and I strive to ensure every patient understands the ‘why’ and ‘how’ behind their care.”

Outside of work, she enjoys spending time outdoors—especially hiking with her family and exploring new places on weekend adventures. Kaitlyn also loves reading, gardening, tending to her many houseplants, and cherishing time with her husband and children.
