Cancer Care (Oncology) / Medical Oncology / OncologyAbout Kelsey Soares
Kelsey Soares earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. She then went on to further her education and obtained her Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Massachusetts Amherst before earning her Nursing Post-Master’s Certificate as a Family Nurse Practitioner from the University of Massachusetts Boston.
Kelsey knows that medicine is not a one-size-fits-all which is why she practices individualized medicine, focusing on her patients’ individual goals of care. She believes that it is her role as a provider to educate her patients and their families and does so by providing all available, evidence-based options of care, to assist in their making the best decisions.
She is actively involved with the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life and the Oncology Nursing Society’s local chapter. Having witnessed the lasting impact an oncology provider can have on a patient’s cancer journey, she feels that her being a part of that journey is a privilege.
To Kelsey, Southcoast Health means community and her ability to provide high-quality care, close to home, for her patients is extremely important to her.
When not at work, she enjoys spending time with her children and husband. They love camping and being outdoors. She also loves to crochet and read.
