About Me

In high school, Kelsey Lee, MD, worked in the cafeteria of Avera McKennan Hospital & University Health Center in Sioux Falls, SD. Even though she wasn’t a doctor, she knew she was contributing to something greater than herself: the Avera mission.

“I remember a doctor told me that she started in the cafeteria,” said Dr. Lee.

Today, Dr. Lee provides expert care in family medicine, also known as primary care, at Avera Medical Group Sibley in Sibley, IA.

In Sibley, she believes she has an opportunity to care for her community in the doctor’s office, but then also get to know her patients in a whole new way at church or community functions.

Expert Care in Family Medicine

Dr. Lee cares for the whole family who might face a variety of conditions throughout their lives, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, depression, anxiety or weight fluctuations.

Some of the services she provides include:

She is especially interested in obesity management and women’s health care.

Active Lifestyle

Dr. Lee is married and enjoys spending time with her family. Some of her many talents include cooking, painting and playing tennis. She also can’t pass up a good biography book or board game.

Dr Lee is amazing. My mom wasn't happy to have an appointment. "There's nothing wrong with me," she said. Dr Lee has the best way of including my mom in the conversation, while giving mom's caregivers the information we need to care for her. We are so lucky to have Dr Lee on staff.

Had such a great experience with Avera Sibley and Dr. Lee after switching from my previous clinic in another town. Dr. Lee listened to what I was saying and responded with several options and how we could work together. Such a great experience to be heard!
