A new practice called Owensboro Health Primary Care – The Springs is now open. Two well-known providers — Sylvia Sweatt, APRN and Kelsey Pedley, APRN — have joined the Owensboro Health organization as part of the development.
The practice is located in the Springs Health Centre at 2200 East Parrish Avenue, Building E, Suite 201.
Sweatt focuses on family practice, offering various services including comprehensive treatment for acute and chronic illnesses, wellness visits, CDL exams, and simple dermatology services for individuals aged 12 and above. Her journey into medicine began in 1992 when she became a registered nurse. Inspired by her experience working alongside ER physicians, she pursued an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse career to take a more active role in patient care planning.
“Sylvia’s passion for her specialty lies in being a part of her patients’ health journeys, from maintaining their well-being to restoring optimal health during life’s changes,” a release from OH says. “She believes in putting the patient at the center of care, following the philosophy that the customer is always right. Sylvia chose Owensboro Health to align with her goal of providing community-focused care and improving patient resources. Outside of work, she enjoys home renovation projects and outdoor activities like kayaking and boating in the beautiful countryside surrounding Owensboro.”
Pedley specializes in primary care and offers a comprehensive range of services to patients of all ages, from yearly wellness physicals to managing chronic conditions such as hypertension and diabetes. Originally from Owensboro, her journey into medicine was inspired by her mother’s influence and her desire to impact patient care significantly.
“Choosing primary care as her specialty, (Pedley) values the opportunity it provides to form lasting relationships with her patients, earning their trust even during sensitive discussions. Her philosophy revolves around patient-centered care, aiming to guide individuals toward healthier lives through tailored treatment plans and support,” the OH release says. “Joining Owensboro Health was a strategic move for Kelsey to enhance patient care within the community she knows and loves.”
