Chronic disease management, women’s health and adolescent health are key areas of focus in Kelsey’s practice. Her most important role, she believes, “is to make medicine more accessible so we all can live healthy lives regardless of our circumstances.”

Aways a good experience at this location. I sometimes feel that the doctor visit isn't long enough to cover everything I'd like to address.

Consistent & caring. Succinct. Best doc I've ever had and I'm 65!

She listened to me like she cared about what I had to say and like it was important to her.

I went back to see Kelsey Tananka because she is the best PCP I've seen ever since I moved to Portland. There was a period where my insurance was not accepted at Providence, but once I learned that it was accepted again, I immediately went back to Kelsey as my PCP.

Kelsey is the best doctor I've ever had. She listens and provides me with very well thought out feedback. She's lgbtq friendly. She's not judgmental. Any time I listen to her advice, I get better results. Couldn't ask for more.

I communicate so well with Kelsey! I enjoy my visits with her. We catch up with each other about every 3 or 4 months. Always a pleasure to come in and touch base with Kelsey.
