Dr. Kelly Whitehurst is a compassionate and experienced family medicine physician who has dedicated over 20 years to improving the health and well-being of her patients. Raised in Flint, Michigan, she earned her undergraduate degree from Michigan State University before attending the American University of the Caribbean for medical school. She completed her primary care residency at Deaconess Hospital, where her commitment to patient-centered care began to flourish.
