Kasey Fontaine

Physician Assistant

Kasey joined the SDWH team after relocating to San Diego from the Pacific Northwest. Kasey came to us with prior experience working as a PA in OB/GYN, urology, and urogynecology. She has training as a surgical first assist and has a certification in robotic surgery.

Kasey was raised in San Diego and received a B.S. from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She then went on to work in women’s health as a medical assistant, where she discovered her passion for working in the field. She attended PA school at Touro University California (TUC), where she obtained a dual masters degree in Physician Assistant Studies and Public Health.

Her commitment as a physician assistant is to provide compassionate care and create a safe space for patients to feel comfortable discussing their most sensitive health concerns with their provider. With a degree in public health, she believes in reducing barriers to women’s health from all angles. She is passionate about providing trauma informed care and addressing both hormonal changes as well as mental health, as many times these are interrelated. Kasey provides evidence based care and ensures her patients feel safe and well educated before starting any new medications or pursuing a procedure/surgery.

Kasey sees full spectrum gynecology including annuals, birth control management, IUD and nexplanon placements, HRT consults, vaginal atrophy management, colposcopies, preconception/family planning, and provides pre and post surgical care. She is certified for Biote testosterone replacement and trained with the MonaLisa touch as well as the Morpheus device providing cosmetic gynecology procedures.

In her free time, Kasey enjoys spending time with her husband and her 1-year-old puppy. She loves to be outside whether that is at the beach, on a bike ride, or exploring a new hike.
