Kelley Murphy, PA-C

Emergency Medicine

College: Bryant University

Graduate School: Johnson & Wales University

Hasbro Children's Hospital, Providence, RI

Growing up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Kelley has always had an affinity for the beach and water, so it seems fitting that she has ended up at CHKD after graduating and completing her Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physician Assistant Fellowship at Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Providence, Rhode Island.

Kelley always knew she wanted to be in the medical field, and was inspired by a physician assistant (PA) who helped her when she was young in high school. She has lived and worked in medical institutions in Maryland, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and now Virginia. 

Throughout the COVID pandemic, Kelley started job searching and knew she wanted to continue to be a PA in a pediatric emergency environment. Her position as a PA in the ED at CHKD is perfect for her to continue using her knowledge and skillset of providing care to a variety of children with illnesses and injuries. Kelley aims to provide comfort and care to both children and their families in the emergency room, and will be a positive light for all her patients.
