Kelsey Rolefson, D.O.

I am a resident in the Mayo Clinic Family Medicine Residency Program in La Crosse.

My practice philosophy is very much patient-centered. I aim to treat from a clinical perspective and also from an emotional, social and financial one. I understand that life is messy, and humans are complex.

I am here to educate, guide and support you in leading a healthier life. Because I consider the whole person when determining appropriate management, we can develop a customized care plan that fits you and your needs in the present moment.

I grew up in Green Bay, Wisconsin (Go, Pack, Go!), alongside my three beautiful sisters. I completed my undergraduate studies in Eau Claire. This is also where I met my wonderful fiancé. I received my medical education in Iowa but am very excited to be back in my home state.

I love spending time outdoors – hiking, kayaking, camping – you name it. I've explored many of the Wisconsin state parks and have ventured to handful of national parks as well. If I'm not working or traveling, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, tending to my numerous houseplants, reading or listening to a podcast/audiobook.
