Our Amazing Team
Who We Are

Kelly Thompson
NURSE PRACTITIONER
I am Kelly Thompson, I have been a nurse since 1995, and a Nurse Practitioner since 2003. I am licensed in Family Practice. I have focused heavily on Women’s Health and infertility for the past 15 years. I believe in keeping things simple, and at this point in my career, have helped more couples achieve their dreams of parenthood than I can count (in the 1000’s). I have a passion to empower my patients to live healthy lives, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I am excited to expand my services to a new area, in a more holistic way. I want to build self confidence. I have lived in Breezy Point with my family for the past 8 years. When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my 5 kids, my dogs, gardening, and watching my kids play sports. I am a hockey mom!

Kelly Vanvickle
CEO, Nurse Practitioner
With over two decades of nursing experience, I specialize in Women’s Health as a nurse practitioner since 2013. My journey began in 1999, leading me to women’s health as a nurse case manager in 2008. This ignited my dedication to women’s well-being, fostering an understanding of women’s health complexities.
Driven by a desire to enhance patient care, I pursued a master’s degree as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner. I co-founded Key Wellness to offer comprehensive care integrating mind, body, and spirit. Embracing aesthetics, I’ve developed a passion for nurturing positive self-image and empowering self-care.
Beyond the clinic, I enjoy motorcycle rides with my husband, moments with our children and grandchildren, and learning new crafts. I’m also an outdoor enthusiast, tending to our garden and animals.

Vanessa Bettis
OFFICE MANAGER
Hello, I am Vanessa! I have been in healthcare for over 18 years and have worked closely with our team for over 10. Healthcare is ever-changing, and it is a great feeling to be a part of a practice that truly cares about its patients and clients, not only on the inside but the outside as well. When I am not at work, you can find me with my husband and 3 children. We spend a lot of time on the baseball field with our son, Griffin. As well as volleyball & softball with our twin daughters, Emersen & Leighton. In the summer months we enjoy spending time at the river with friends and family, and ice fishing & snowmobiling in the winter.
