Hello my name is Jackee Kayser and I'm a
pediatric allergy, asthma and immunology doctor
I chose to go into healthcare
because I wanted to not only continue to
study kind of a scientific piece of
medicine which I thoroughly enjoy but
also because I wanted to really affect
our pediatric population that we that
were able to deal with every day and
kind of travel through their lives
because that's kind of one of the one of
the benefits of being in the pediatric
community as you allow you're allowed to
kind of learn as you go with your with
your patients
I actually chose the pathway of
pediatric allergy, asthma and immunology
because I am personally affected by a
peanut allergy and I want to make sure
that my patients and their families are
not overwhelmed by that diagnosis or any
allergic diagnosis I want them to feel
empowered and feel like they can grow up
to be happy and healthy people
It's probably not just a healthcare
nuance of wanting to feel heard I think
that's just people being human wanting
to be heard and feel heard and so one of
the things that I do in my clinic is at
the very end of the visit I always ask
do you have any questions or do
you feel like I didn't answer any of
your questions so we we try to make sure
that every question that families or
patients have at that moment is
addressed
At the moment my hobbies are really
traveling around to various football
games and lacrosse tournaments and swim
meets with my two children and so that
that's how I spend my spare time
