Physician - Family Medicine

Kelsey‑Seybold Clinic is Houston's premier multispecialty group practice, founded in 1949 by Dr. Mavis Kelsey in Houston's renowned Texas Medical Center. More than 600 physicians and allied health professionals practice at 31 locations in the Greater Houston area. Kelsey‑Seybold offers quality medical care in 65 medical specialties. The organization operates the largest freestanding Ambulatory Surgery Center in the state of Texas and offers state‑of‑the‑art Varian True Beam and Varian Edge radiation therapy technology at a nationally accredited Cancer Center.

An accredited Sleep Center, comprehensive laboratory services, advanced imaging and diagnostics, 19 onsite Kelsey pharmacies and one specialty pharmacy, and My Kelsey Online , a secure web portal, are part of its comprehensive offerings. Kelsey‑Seybold partners with major insurers to offer value‑based commercial health plans. Kelsey‑Care Advantage, a Medicare Advantage plan offered to Houston‑area beneficiaries and affiliated with Kelsey‑Seybold Clinic, has achieved the coveted 5‑out‑of‑5‑star rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid for six consecutive years.

Kelsey‑Seybold has been recognized by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as the nation's first accredited Accountable Care Organization and a Level 3 (highest) Patient‑Centered Medical Home. Kelsey‑Seybold has many physicians in the Greater Houston area certified for excellence in diabetes and heart and stroke care by the NCQA. In addition to these recognitions, Kelsey‑Seybold is home to a nationally accredited Breast Diagnostic Center, and Endoscopy Center.

Unlike other organizations, Kelsey‑Seybold physicians have the opportunity for ownership in the Medical Group, as well as in The Kelsey‑Seybold Management Company. The ownership path is clear and straightforward. A Kelsey‑Seybold Physician is typically eligible for ownership after three years of employment, board certification, and demonstrated good citizenship. The result is an extraordinary, broad‑based, and diverse physician‑led organization. When you join Kelsey‑Seybold, you become part of an established, physician‑owned, and led multispecialty group practice with a 70‑year legacy of caring for patients.

Because family practitioners are trained to treat the whole person, these specialists diagnose and treat the full range of problems people bring to their doctors. They also know when to bring in another specialist. In most cases, a referral from a family doctor is not necessary to schedule an appointment with a Kelsey‑Seybold specialist, but the family doctor is an important part of the multispecialty team.

The family doctor coordinates care with specialty physicians and other members of a patient's care team.
